Bicton, Perth
Lift Shop installed an A Series home lift in a riverside home in Bicton, Perth. The house steps over three levels to take in the Swan River, and the lift links every one of them. A brushed metal swing door sits in a quiet hallway beside the bedrooms, ready for every trip.
Open the door and the cabin carries the same brushed metal tone, with the light stone floor of the hall running straight in. Nothing about it asks for attention. It reads as one more door in a calm white corridor, which is exactly the brief a house like this sets.
The house sits high above the Swan River, and almost every room turns towards the water. Glass walls fold back from the main living area, timber joinery wraps the fireplace wall, and the view runs from the moored boats below to the far shore. Each level opens to the light, so no part of the house feels like the back of it.
There are 4 bedrooms, a heated pool and an alfresco area framed by the river. Spread over three levels, it is a home that rewards being lived in from top to bottom. That only works when moving between the levels takes no effort at all.
Stairs suit a weekend visit. They do not suit a household carrying groceries up from the garage, guests arriving with luggage, or anyone with sore knees. A lift turns three separate floors into one connected home, so the kitchen, the terrace and the bedrooms stay equally easy to reach.
Here the lift opens onto the bedroom hallway, right where the day starts and ends. Its swing door uses the same restrained palette as the rest of the interior, so it belongs to the house rather than sitting on top of it. Framed artwork hangs beside it, and the door simply becomes part of the wall when it closes.
The lift was handed over in 2019 and Lift Shop still looks after it today. Regular servicing keeps it running smoothly year after year.
