Grosvenor Holiday House

This is the second home to be designed on the site as a joint venture with my wife and brother. It’s fair to say that after spending the first night in home 1, I learned to respect the 120km/hr gale-force winds coming up from lake Jindy and ensured that our second home was well and truly anchored and nestled into the hillside.

Using a complementary material palette to House 1, Trimdek colorbond cladding and roofs with inset timber look walls, creates a contemporary alpine barn-like aesthetic. Designed primarily for short-term letting, we created three ensuited master bedrooms and a generous communal living area and kitchen to afford three couples to enjoy the region together. A large wet room, drying room and storage for ski’s and bikes ensures guests can bring their adventure toys and enjoy the home year round. The living areas capture the northern light but focus on western views across the lake to the mountains beyond.
