Architectural masterpiece on the Tamar waterfront

“River Rocks” makes a stunning architectural statement and is an exceptional achievement in engineering. On the Tamar waterfront, a series of steel columns and spectacular 3m x 1m double glazed windows ensure that every light-filled room reaches out to watch the water. The benefit of consistent light and extraordinary views complements two individually-zoned living domains, linked by a courtyard that delivers effective cross ventilation. Above, grassed topsoil covers the roof, creating significant natural insulation and a substantial solar mass.

“River Rocks” offers a breathtaking 270 degree panorama of the Tamar River. Only four years old, this charismatic 6-star energy rated house features extensive landscaping by the current owners. Constructed from local rock, the curved, retaining walls and wide grass terraces step down to its absolute water frontage position on the the Tamar River.

It is the aesthetic drama of this unique home that will have the most lasting impact on you. Huge contemporary living spaces are enhanced by a sunken and intelligently organized kitchen. Three bedrooms and two bathrooms and a second living area contribute generous extra accommodation to this compelling property. The main bedroom has a private terrace that creates an outdoor zone of its own. Second and third bedrooms, a second bathroom and additional living spaces confirm the relationship this remarkable home has with its natural bush surroundings.

The recently installed commercial ducted heating and cooling system ensures an even year-round living temperature under all weather conditions. It operates under two separate zones to maximise comfort and minimise operating costs. There is also a superb French Cheminée Philippe wood combustion heater to add to the natural comforts of home.

Outdoors, extensive alfresco decking is provided for entertaining or simply to enjoy the sunny surroundings. A separate recreational area and swimming pool pull the natural environs into even clearer, sharper perspective. Bird song, bushland, passing boats and sublime sunsets offer aural and visual delights

Set away from the main house is a huge new 100 sqm Colorbond shed with remote door access. The shed has power and water.

“River Rocks” is remarkable in every imaginable way with living spaces and details that defy comparison.
