The main residence spans three levels and includes five bedrooms, generous open‑plan living spaces, a media room, bar, gym, cellar, and substantial garaging. Connected to the primary dwelling is a fully self‑contained one‑bedroom suite for grandparents, designed to provide independence while maintaining proximity to family; an elegant and thoughtful response to multi‑generational living. 

Material selections reflect the coastal environment and the client’s desire for refined, enduring finishes. Natural sandstone cladding provides warmth and durability, complemented by vertical timber weatherboards for softness and texture. Aluminium elements ensure resilience in a marine climate while maintaining the clean, contemporary aesthetic. 

Given the complexities of its cliff‑top location, the project required a highly considered structural and consenting strategy. Cantilevered living spaces and three‑level massing demanded robust engineering and careful geotechnical coordination. The architectural approach focuses on maximising views while maintaining strong privacy from the roadside, creating a home that feels both grounded and open.
