Lifestyle - The Oribin House represents a piece of Cairns' architectural history. Elegant lines and handmade detailing are the hallmarks of this Heritage Listed late 1950s property, conceived by acclaimed architect Edwin Oribin. A well considered extension and renovations in keeping with Oribin's original vision create a cohesive, contemporary family home. Set amidst tranquil, established gardens, the property maintains an enchanting privacy yet is within walking distance of cafes, restaurants, shops and schools. Accommodation - Influenced by a love of aviation and fascination with Zen concepts, the architect's use of flexible floor and wall plans has enabled a unique integration and separation of spaces. The open plan kitchen was custom built, while the expansive living and dining space has floor to ceiling louvres to encompass the garden aspect. The master bedroom has a private balcony and overlooks lush vegetation, while two further bedrooms in the new wing open to the upper level garden. Features - The property is set on a large 1922m2 block with pool, raised lawns and a creek.
