14 Thompson Esp, Russell Island is a 3 bedroom, 1 bathroom House with 1 parking spaces and was built in 2002. The property has a land size of 627m2 and floor size of 104m2. While the property is not currently for sale or for rent, it was last sold in April 2023.
I have not seen anything as unique and well designed as this. Located on the desirable Canaipa Peninsular, elevated 10 metres above sea level overlooking Ooncooncoo bay nestled in a grove of mature Cypress pines. The sea views from the large verandah and the living area will never get built out and you have private water access from the rear of the property through the council easement.
The home was designed by Scandenavian architect Magnus G Bjornsson in 2003 as a sustainable holiday home featuring highly insulated roof, walls and floor, with whole wall sections and sizeable glass doors that open up to take in light, the views and breezes.
High plywood lined ceilings with downlights and ambient strip lighting have a timeless natural appeal. Dark grey sintered tiles throughout the home absorb heat from low angle winter sun and radiate it throughout the home to keep it toasty warm in winter.
It has 2 bedrooms plus a light filled room off the living area and kitchen that could be used as a study or separate formal dining area.
The master bedroom has sea views and built in shelving and wardrobe with a stainless steel ladder leading to a loft space.
The kitchen is practical with large fridge space, stone bench top and high level cabinets. The laundry and laundry sink is contained inside a large cupboard.
The home is steel frame (the Universal Modular Building System) with painted ply cladding, corrugated iron roof and aerated concrete floor panels. With a good clean and some investment into a few cosmetic upgrades the home could be restored to it's former glory. It received a World Architecture award in 2008.
