Nestled just off the iconic West Coast Drive, the Elvire Street project in Watermans Bay is a striking renovation and extension that redefines luxury beachside living. This corner-block property, located in one of Perth’s most sought-after coastal suburbs, underwent a substantial transformation to maximise space, capture ocean views, and deliver a bespoke living experience that blends function with refined coastal aesthetics.

The scope of this renovation and extension was extensive. To fully embrace the home’s prized coastal location, structural steel was integrated into the lower storey to remove internal walls and create a large, open-plan living area with uninterrupted views of the Indian Ocean. This bold architectural move allowed the beachside atmosphere to flow directly into the heart of the home—bringing in natural light, ocean breezes, and a sense of space that’s perfect for relaxed coastal living and entertaining.
At the rear of the home, an additional 100 square metres was added to increase the internal footprint significantly. This new section included the addition of two generously sized bedrooms and a stylishly appointed bathroom, offering more room for family or guests while maintaining a seamless connection to the original home. Every element of the extension was thoughtfully designed to complement the existing structure while adding a modern edge.
One of the standout features of the Elvire Street renovation is the custom-made timber staircase, crafted in-house by the company’s skilled carpenters. This staircase is more than just a functional element—it’s a centrepiece that showcases craftsmanship, detail, and a commitment to quality. With its natural tones and elegant lines, it ties together the home’s coastal palette while adding warmth and character.
The master suite was also fully reimagined as part of the renovation. The new layout includes a spacious bedroom retreat, a custom-designed walk-in wardrobe tailored for style and storage, and a luxurious bathroom that rivals a high-end resort. Featuring premium finishes, expansive tiling, and a sense of understated opulence, the master ensuite brings comfort and sophistication together in perfect harmony.
Outside, the transformation continues. The outdoor areas were fully landscaped, including the construction of retaining walls and new decking to better utilise the sloping block and create inviting alfresco zones. A brand-new driveway with exposed aggregate concrete was installed, giving the property a fresh, modern street presence that complements the home's coastal architecture.
The end result is a home that not only celebrates its beachside setting but also delivers exceptional comfort and practicality for everyday living. Whether it's enjoying the ocean breeze from the open-plan living space, hosting guests in the extended living areas, or simply relaxing in the tranquil master suite, every corner of the home has been designed to elevate the lifestyle of its owners.
Elvire Street in Watermans Bay is a true testament to thoughtful renovation, architectural vision, and quality craftsmanship. For those seeking to enhance their home with custom additions, elegant design, and lasting value, this project stands as an inspiring example of what’s possible.
