RUMAH BAHAGIAA - HOUSE OF JOY

This architecturally designed resort style home is a striking departure from the ordinary offering a unique and relaxed waterfront lifestyle.

Winning a State Building Design Award followed by a National Design Award this truly iconic Port Mandurah canal home must be viewed if you are in the market to secure an amazing property which is absolutely unlike most and will draw you in providing a natural warming ambience.

The brief was set by the owners with their architect to achieve the perfect canal front design which catered
for their large family spanning generations, their frequent family gatherings, celebrations and the practicality of having separate areas for living, sleeping or entertaining. This award winning design has combined with the natural raw talent the owners have displayed by sourcing antique Indonesian doors and timber artwork and fusing this with other natural products such as sandstone flooring, limestone, tropical gardens, pond and simply creating a home which is an evolving work of art.

Enter the property through a secure thatched gatehouse with remote intercom and immediately be mesmerized by the central 12.5m length below ground heated pool and raised spa which leads you to the glass electronic locking front door.

This pavilion style design with two separate house wings surround the pool and as you walk through it is not dissimilar to the latest 5 star Seminyak resort home offerings.
