Designed as the owners’ retirement home, this three-bedroom, two-bathroom property needed to withstand its exposed coastal position while making the most of the sun, views and indoor-outdoor living.

Pale brick, timber-look weatherboards and thermally modified timber create a marine-hardy exterior, with hardwood decking wrapping the home. Inside, the open-plan living wing features a bright beach-inspired kitchen, dining and lounge, while the private wing includes two bedrooms, a family bathroom and sun-filled main suite.

Practical and sustainable features include fob entry, an outdoor shower, solar panels, a glasshouse, raised vegetable gardens and a rainwater tank.
