12 Philip Street

Designed by architect Owen West and constructed by respected local builder Michael Hearn, this striking contemporary residence is a superb example of thoughtful coastal architecture. Set on an elevated block, the home's bold geometric form and elevated living spaces create a commanding street presence while maximising natural light and privacy. The intelligently designed layout positions the main living areas upstairs, where expansive windows capture leafy neighbourhood views and invite beautiful northern light throughout the day. At the heart of the home, the open-plan living, dining and kitchen zone flows seamlessly to a generous covered deck, creating an ideal setting for entertaining or unwinding in the coastal air. Clean architectural lines, warm spotted gum timber floors and quality finishes combine to deliver a space that feels both sophisticated and welcoming. The home offers three well-proportioned bedrooms, complemented by a dedicated study, a stylish central bathroom, and excellent storage throughout the interior as well as externally. A well-appointed laundry, undercover tandem parking for two cars, and heating and cooling further enhance the home's everyday functionality and comfort. Outside, landscaped gardens and private outdoor spaces contribute to the home's relaxed seaside appeal, perfectly balancing design excellence with practical liveability. Ideally positioned within easy reach of South Beach and the vibrant Port Fairy township, this architecturally recognised home presents a rare opportunity to secure an award-winning design in one of the region's most sought-after coastal communities. A unique blend of architectural distinction, contemporary comfort and enviable coastal lifestyle, this is a home of exceptional character and enduring appeal.
