New House in South Freo
On a new north-facing lot in South Fremantle a three storey home with extensive sea views is rising. The result of an extended period of negotiation with the local authority about the application of several planning documents, was to allow a top floor which is treated as part of the roof.
The house is oriented to the north with balconies on both upper levels for passive solar advantage as well as to take maximum advantage of the view. Neighbour's privacy was respected by reducing windows on the east side and screening the drying balcony.
Construction is proceeding under the owner's direction.
