Architect-Designed Beach House With A Lush Private Garden On A Deep Level 392sqm Approx
A creative take on beachside living by Larcombe + Solomon Architects delivers a dynamic sense of light and space in this freestanding family home in a tightly held street on the edge of Bronte Gully. Designed around a central internal courtyard that allows the building to breathe, the two-storey home's pavilion-style layout and walls of glass create a superb indoor/outdoor entertainer with a lush established child-friendly garden at the rear framed by leafy greenery. The play of ceiling heights and textures throughout the house create more intimate moments with framed views of the garden and breakout spaces to work, relax or seek retreat. Key to the success of the design is the close connection with nature and the outdoors with the top floor retreat opening to a private rooftop terrace with a tranquil treescape outlook and big sky view that captures the ocean breeze. Fusing quality design with an eco-friendly design sensibility, the four-bedroom home's robust palette of natural stone, timber, glass and zinc is offset by splashes of colour that bring an upbeat feel while extensive custom joinery achieves a streamlined aesthetic. A family friendly neighbourhood an easy walk through the gully to Bronte Beach is just 500m to Bronte Public School and 550m to Charing Cross village.
