Described by House & Garden magazine as “smart, contemporary and luxurious” this six-bedroom home was designed with beachside family life in mind. Everything about it embraces the ocean. Sweeping views of the Pacific are echoed in azure artwork, cabinetry and furnishings, while natural sandstone, marble and timber add warmth and texture. The beachy colour palette compliments the home’s relaxed social spaces, including the expansive poolside barbecue area, designed to accommodate large or small gatherings.

By the pool, an ‘Addis’ outdoor table from Cosh Living creates visual dialogue with timber panelling below the barbecue. Inside couches and chairs play with a palette of fresh white, ocean blue and tonal grey. Statement chairs from Jardan and Fred International elevate spaces with soft, unique shapes.

On the upper levels floor-to-ceiling windows maxmise light and ocean views, while subtle screens provide privacy from neighbours and shade during the heat of the day. Clever floor planning on the lower levels has created space for a four-car garage, media room, plus a home gym with spa, steam room, sauna and ice bath.
