It’s the unexpected mix of materials that give this beachfront home its point of difference. The use of seemingly disparate textures — inside and out — work together to impressive effect. On the exterior, timber and weathered steel complement precast concrete panels, while on the interior yet more concrete is offset with warm timber accents, crisp white ceilings and dramatic tiles. Throughout the home there are concrete walls as well as concrete slab flooring and hydronic heating. The house was designed to maximise site space, along with daylight and water views. The main living area opens up to the sunny front deck and windows in the main bedroom take in the dramatic sunsets over the sea. The number three is a bit of a theme here, with three bedrooms, three bathrooms and three living rooms across the 271sqm footprint. On the ground floor is the kitchen-living-dining space complete with scullery, plus a separate living room, bathroom, laundry and garage. Upstairs is the main bedroom suite and two other bedrooms, a bathroom and additional living room. The bathrooms are fully tiled, with one pairing stunning black tiles with aged brass tapware and a copper-toned basin, and another with a striking black stone freestanding bath.
