Treetop House - Architectual Masterpiece

Experience "a platform in nature". Treetop House is that all too rare, inspiring creation: a home entirely as one with nature.

Suspended above a glorious bush site overlooking Pittwater and five minutes from Avalon Beach, 33 Hilltop Road Avalon Beach speaks of that even rarer of architectural gifts: of a home designed to confidently hover, to offer the joyous, liberating richness of life lived high in the forest canopy.

Completed in 1993, it represents an important early work by award-winning Sydney-based architect Peter Stutchbury, recipient of Australia’ highest architectural honour, the Australian Institute of Architects’ Gold Medal – and one of his original, highly acclaimed Pittwater Peninsular houses.

As with all of Stutchbury’s buildings, it responds intuitively to site – a tranquil, 1,071 square metre beautifully forested, sloping block under the Avalon ridgeline featuring magnificent bush and water views.

Located centrally to optimise aspect and minimise exposure, Treetop House presents as two key architectural elements.

At its base, a soaring vertical blockwork tower speaks of trees, of anchorage to site and connection with the land – accommodating flexible visitors’ quarters, a parent’s retreat, laundry and two bathrooms over two levels.

Resting above, a powerful horizontal timber and steel-framed platform, opened wide to the canopy – living spaces liberated and cantilevered dramatically west as the structure reaches for Pittwater, views and sky; children’s bedrooms and bathroom more contained and cantilevered east to connect back to the hillside, the earth and comfort.

Poetic and pragmatic, this unique home speaks of the Australian bush as few others can.
