“De Vries House” 由著名建筑公司 MacKay-Lyons Sweetapple Architects 设计，是一座 21 世纪的后现代住宅，坐落在 2.7 英亩的平坦海角上，拥有 280 英尺的西南直面壮阔海滨。这座整体式定制高级建筑采用镀锌金属包覆，悬臂下方为“腌制”槽缝软木，在海景中“具有空气动力学平衡感”，仿佛要从浪尖飞翔。这座住宅沐浴在阳光下，拥有 160 度的广阔海景。整体形状为楔形，从最低的高度向南上升 - 主楼层的厨房起居区位于此处 - 然后向北上升，主楼层的主卧室位于此处，二楼上方是图书馆和客房。图书馆的半面墙形成了一个阁楼，可以俯瞰前门厅和起居区的狭窄部分，但楼梯间是封闭的。这种巧妙的设计在图书馆和主楼层之间提供了视觉隐私，同时又形成了一个单一的、引人注目的空间，由铁横梁支撑，被从屋顶天窗射下的自然光分割，整个空间有两层楼高，一直延伸到主楼层的抛光混凝土地板。这给一楼和二楼都营造了一种开放的印象，并允许来自多个方向的自然光源。起居区和主卧室的宽大角窗提供了宽阔、无遮挡的水景。图书馆阴凉处的一扇高而窄的窗户提供了北面海岸线的壮丽景色。这座住宅的角度经过精心设计，线条简洁，将实用和美观的生活空间结合在一起，就像一个智力拼图，实现了一个单一、和谐的建筑风格。该房产交通便利，距离利物浦的便利设施不到十分钟路程，对于挑剔的买家来说，它将是一个独特的住宅或理想的休闲场所。
The "De Vries House", from the renowned architectural firm, MacKay-Lyons Sweetapple Architects, is a 21st century, post-modern home set on a level promontory of 2.7 acres, with 280 feet of direct, bold oceanfront facing south-west. This monolithic, bespoke, premium construction, clad in galvanized metal with 'pickled' channel-joint softwood beneath its cantilevers, is 'aerodynamically poised' against the seascape as if to take flight from the crest of a wave. This home is basked in light and has 160 degree, large ocean views. The overall form is a wedge which rises from its lowest height to the south - where the main-floor kitchen-living area is located - then to the north where the principal bedroom is located on the main floor, and the library and guest room above on the second level. The half wall of the library creates a mezzanine which overlooks a narrow portion of the front foyer and living area, yet the stairwell is enclosed. This clever design lends for visual privacy between the library and main floor, yet allows for a single, dramatic volume of space, braced by iron crossbeams, and dissected by the natural light falling from the skylights in the roof, two full stories to the polished concrete floors at the main level. This creates an impression of openness for both the first and second levels and allows for natural light sources from multiple directions. The expansive corner windows in both the living area and principal bedroom provide broad, unobstructed water views. A tall, narrow window in the shaded end of the library provides a breath-taking perspective onto the shoreline to the north. This home, with its carefully considered angles and clean lines unites both practical and beautiful living spaces, like an intellectual puzzle, to achieve one single, harmonious, architectural statement. Easily accessible and located less than ten minutes from the amenities of Liverpool, this property would make a unique home or ideal retreat for the discerning buyer.
