Wellness and exceptional amenities are defining luxuries of Arbour House. Whether beginning the day with a swim, unwinding in the sauna or savouring a quiet moment in the wine cellar, every element has been thoughtfully crafted for effortless living and holistic wellbeing.

Ultimate Retreat for Body and Mind

At the base of the home, a dedicated lower level is devoted entirely to wellness, a private retreat where wellbeing becomes ritual. Seamlessly woven into the architecture, this sanctuary balances performance with serenity, offering a state-of-the-art gym to move, breathe and restore, a soft-floor studio for yoga and stretching, the enveloping warmth of a private sauna, and the invigorating clarity of an ice bath. Enhancing the experience further is an air purification system, ensuring every breath supports holistic health. Every detail is attuned to the renewal of body and mind. This is wellness without compromise — personal, purposeful, and quietly woven into daily life.

A Private Oasis

Tucked within lush, curated landscaping, the north-facing courtyard and pool form a private oasis — intimate, sunlit and alive with movement and light. Indoor spaces flow effortlessly outward, embraced by palms and flowering tropical greenery, unfolding onto an entertaining area fully equipped with the finest Wolf outdoor barbecue.

It feels as though the architecture has gently stepped back to let nature take the lead. Water sparkles beneath shifting light, inviting a morning swim, a cooling dip or a moment of stillness in the dappled shade. This is a sensory escape where time slows and joy lingers softly in the air, a place where refined architecture exists in quiet harmony with its natural surroundings.

We drew inspiration of the surrounding inner-city context. The landscape design has a focus on building ambience, with the use of a water feature in the front courtyard providing a tranquil relief to the busy surrounds.

Framed internal outlooks to pockets of lush, shade tolerant planting seamlessly blur the transition between hardscape and softscape. Simple, yet elegant hedging surrounding the pool provides a sophisticated and clean linear green screen to widen the feel of rear garden, creating an expansive illusion.

A New Level of Elevated Living

Beneath the home lies a lower-ground private garage, a space that transcends function to become an architectural statement. With parking for four cars, a turntable, EV charging and seamless internal lift access, it offers a rare blend of privacy, security and ease, perfect for the lock-up and leave lifestyle.

Adjacent, the temperature-controlled wine cellar is a quiet expression of connoisseurship, encased in steel and glass. It offers both display and retreat, where luxury is measured not in excess but in the finesse of every considered detail, completing the home’s foundation of thoughtful luxury.
