The family home incorporates three storeys with the ground level accommodating a self-contained guest suite, wine cellar and laundry.
The main entry at mid-level draws you into the open-plan kitchen, dining and sunken living areas that open to the front deck and primary outlooks towards the ocean.
This level also accommodates secondary bedrooms for children, a library nook and sheltered courtyard to enjoy added privacy and protection from prevailing coastal winds.
A feature staircase with floating timber treads takes you to the upper level, consisting of the parent’s retreat, ensuite, dressing room and guest room.
This level continues to address the site, with outlooks strategically framed, and apertures that invite quality sun and breeze.
The resulting home optimises function, flexibility and elegance – perfect for family gatherings, entertaining and watching the sun go down over the Indian Ocean.
