THE DEAL

Discover an architectural marvel at the heritage-listed Glick House. A bold and award-winning example of Late Twentieth Century Functionalist design, this home reimagines the suburban model with an industrial aesthetic, designed and created by renowned architects Donaldson and Warn, alongside acclaimed West Australian artist Rodney Glick as a unique piece of art nestled in the heart of leafy Leederville.

Encased in a striking steel exoskeleton, this three-level structure comprises a residence, studio, workshop, garage and yoga studio, set within a lush urban retreat. Glick House is a semi-industrial masterpiece that balances light and dark, industrial strength with natural beauty, and functionality with artistry.

The façade features clean, stacked lines, wooden panels and a rusted steel frame, offering privacy with no ground-level street windows, while expansive upper-level picture windows bathe the interiors in light and provide a sense of openness and connection with the surroundings.

Entering from the west, you’re greeted by a secure space leading to a multi-functional lower level. This floor includes a utility room, bedroom suite, a polished terrazzo studio space with soaring 3.5m ceilings and a second kitchen opening to a north-facing deck for seamless indoor-outdoor entertaining. The studio can be transformed into a theatre, complete with a projector and retractable screen, while polished concrete floors and custom cabinetry add warmth and sophistication.

Accessed by external stairs, the main living areas rise to the treetop canopy on the first floor, featuring a sleek commercial-grade kitchen and bespoke cabinetry by notable Perth designer and furniture maker Adam Cruickshank. The spacious master suite boasts a sunken shower, cast concrete walls and tranquil views. Another room doubles as a dressing area, bringing a playful, treehouse-like quality to the space. Elevated further, the rooftop terrace offers reticulated lawns, a concrete dining table and a gas barbecue, all with breathtaking 360-degree views of Leederville and Perth’s cityscape perched 6.5m above the street below.

The garden level integrates leisure with privacy, featuring a curved deck, piano-shaped bar and established native landscaping around a heated stainless steel plunge pool. Adjacent, the double garage, workshop and yoga studio are designed as flexible spaces with minimalist aesthetics, providing the perfect retreat, workspace or sleepout, insulated and equipped with air conditioning.

With sustainable design principles at its core, designed to passive house principals, Glick House includes a 5kW solar system, UV-protective window film, a rainwater tank, and 3-phase power for electric vehicles, making it both an environmentally conscious and innovative living space. With a monitored alarm system, external perimeter sensors and security cameras, the residence is a safe haven and stronghold.

SEALS THE DEAL

In the book ‘Houses for the 21st Century’ Glick House shows how the “process of everyday living was to be elevated to a higher plane, lifted out of the mundane, becoming a celebration that offers a critique of convention”. Glick House is bold, unapologetically unique, and ready for those who refuse to settle for the ordinary. It’s a home that makes a statement, designed for those who value style, privacy, and innovation.
