11C Ednah St, Como WA 6152, Australia
Live moments from the river and city in this unique architectural masterpiece designed to adapt to your family’s needs. This ‘Forever Home’ functions as either an expansive family residence or two individual self-contained luxury apartments, offering exceptional flexibility and catering to the ever-changing demands of modern life, future-proofing your family’s financial legacy.
Situated on a prime 328sqm corner lot in one of Como’s most desirable streets, just a block from Como Beach and Preston Street Village, this striking contemporary home has been thoughtfully crafted by the team at To Be Home, known for their innovative, adaptable, and family-focused designs.
Ensuring comfort and independence as life changes for the occupants, the creative, adaptable ‘dual key’ design provides the ideal environment for multi-generational or age-in-place living. The home can function as a five-bedroom, multiple living room residence, or can be divided into two self-contained modern apartments, with each level independently serviced by its own reverse cycle air conditioning, hot water and security systems.
Ground Floor Residence:
The open-plan, fully accessible design of the ground floor features two bedrooms and bathrooms, perfect for couples or those requiring increased accessibility. The main living area wraps around two light-filled courtyards, landscaped by DIG Landscapes and Eco Outdoor, creating a serene, seamless space of the highest quality and requiring minimal maintenance, providing both a visual and direct link between the living areas and master bedroom, enhancing the connection of spaces.
The master suite is a peaceful sanctuary, with views of the courtyard, a custom-fitted walk-in robe, and a luxurious ensuite featuring a spacious hobless shower and a bathtub, providing both safety and luxury.
Upper-Level Apartment:
The simple closing of an internal solid-core timber door creates a private secondary entrance, transforming the upper level into a fully self-contained luxury apartment. This level includes a main bedroom with an ensuite, a second bedroom, a bathroom with laundry provisions, a full kitchen, and an additional living area that can easily serve as a large third bedroom or office, while an expansive rooftop terrace offers glimpses of the Perth city skyline to the north, making it perfect for entertaining or as an idyllic retreat.
The apartment is the ideal space to accommodate multi-generational living, carers’ quarters, visiting guests or an additional income stream as a rental investment.
Flexibility Without Compromise:
To Be Home specializes in contemporary designs that conceal accessible features within modernist aesthetics. The ground floor features wide passageways, no steps, and smooth transitions between indoor and outdoor living zones-all without sacrificing space or style. Provisions have even been made for the future installation of a lift, ensuring a seamless process if required, while providing handy additional storage space on both levels in the meantime.
Designed with age-in-place principles in mind, this adaptable home will appeal to a broad range of buyers, each with unique needs, filling a rare space in the market.
Style and Elegance:
High ceilings, oversized windows, large door frames, and engineered timber flooring enhance the feeling of space and light. A blend of textures and designer lighting ensures the home exudes warmth and modern elegance. In summer, open the sliding doors to the alfresco for effortless entertaining; in winter, curl up by the fireplace for cozy evenings – truly a home for all seasons.
The beautifully appointed main kitchen forms the heart of the home, with stone benchtops, premium appliances, endless bench space, and ample storage. Overlooking the main living zone and outdoor entertaining spaces, this is the ideal place for family and friends to gather while meals are prepared. A complete second kitchen with matching premium finishes services the upper level.
Lifestyle and Location:
With construction recently completed by local custom builders Prestige Homes, the residence features sleek, modern lines softened by Art Deco-inspired curves, complementing its prime Como Beach location within walking distance of the river and Preston Street’s vibrant village precinct. A selection of Perth’s premier schools are within easy reach, while the city is just minutes away by car, public transport, or a network of riverside cycleways.
