High above the city, the Tree Tops Residence takes full advantage of its steep hillside site. Four levels capture the views, natural light, and experience of living at the height of the trees. With four bedrooms, two offices, flex spaces, and two covered patios, there is ample space for owners who love to host guests.
Though the site’s steep slope posed the greatest challenge, it provided an exceptional opportunity. Located on a corner, the home has commanding views in multiple directions. The home is organized across three levels over a basement, with the lower two levels for guests, the second level for common areas, and the top level reserved for the owners. The top level contains the owner’s bedroom suite, TV lounge, office, bar, and outdoor roof deck. The ground level contains three guest bedrooms and a full bathroom, with a basement flex space serving as a secondary living room.
In the kitchen, custom millwork flanks the island, framing the space. Rich, glossy cabinetry adds depth and polish. A dark island adjacent to white countertops creates an elegant contrast. This refined luxury continues through the primary bathroom. The enclosed wet area features a large soaking tub set above the shower floor, alongside dual showerheads, all wrapped in Calacatta marble.
Tree Tops Residence uses exterior materials to strike a careful balance with the neighboring contemporary home. Some of the massing and formal language are repeated, but the natural materials ground the home into the hillside in a more organic way.
