In the heart of the prestigious Gold Coast, this newly constructed luxury home stands as a beacon of modern design and refined living. The owners, seeking more than just functional vertical access, envisioned a residential lift elevator that would act as both a practical necessity and an architectural centerpiece. Their choice? A meticulously customised ElfoLift from Lift Shop — a product renowned for its design flexibility, premium materials, and seamless integration in high-end homes.
The property itself is an expansive three-level home designed with a blend of contemporary aesthetics and timeless elegance. Located in one of the Gold Coast’s most coveted areas, the residence demanded a lift that would not only provide effortless access across all floors but also enhance the home’s luxurious ambiance. The owners wanted their lift to reflect the sophistication found throughout the property, making it a focal point rather than a hidden utility.
The requirements were clear: the lift had to accommodate frequent daily use with smooth, quiet operation and offer a bespoke design that matched the high-end finishes and materials featured in the home’s architecture and interior design. Given these parameters, the ElfoLift emerged as the perfect fit — a luxury electric lift known for its combination of superior engineering and exquisite customization.
Installing a residential lift in a home of this calibre is never without its challenges. Key considerations included:
These complexities required close collaboration between Lift Shop’s design and engineering teams, the homeowner, and the builder to ensure every detail was executed flawlessly.
The chosen ElfoLift model was customised extensively to meet the project’s unique demands:
This project stands as a compelling example of how domestic lifts can transcend mere functionality to become captivating design statements. The lift’s stone surrounds and powdercoated black doors seamlessly complement the home’s architecture, while the etched panoramic glass panels enhance natural lighting and add a layer of sophisticated privacy.
Inside, the choice of Austenit special stainless steel and polished profiles speaks to the owners’ preference for durable yet luxurious finishes. The inclusion of a full-size mirror is a thoughtful design tactic, enhancing the spatial experience within the compact cabin — a crucial consideration for compact lifts where maximising perceived space is essential.
The custom glass pebble flooring adds texture and an organic feel to the interior, balancing the sleek metal and glass surfaces. Meanwhile, the bespoke artwork on the shaft walls introduces a personal touch that distinguishes this lift from standard installations, demonstrating Lift Shop’s expertise in delivering tailored luxury lifts that fit both aesthetic and functional needs.
The finished ElfoLift exceeded the client’s expectations, providing effortless access to all three levels while enhancing the home’s visual appeal. The lift’s quiet, smooth operation and thoughtful design details have transformed everyday movement within the residence into an experience of comfort and elegance.
From a property value perspective, the inclusion of such a high-end, customised lift solution added considerable appeal, showcasing how luxury lifts can be both an investment in lifestyle and real estate. The owners now enjoy a home that’s more accessible and stylish, a true reflection of their sophisticated tastes.
While specific testimonials were not provided, the client’s decision to proceed with a highly customised ElfoLift and their satisfaction with the final outcome is a testament to Lift Shop’s commitment to quality, innovation, and customer service.
