Award-Winning Eco Friendly Family Beach House, Bronte's Most Exclusive Address

Designed by celebrated coastal architect Sam Crawford, this award-winning family home is surrounded by beautiful landscaped gardens on what is undoubtedly Bronte's most sought-after beachside avenue. An inspired redesign retains the fabric of the original cottage that was built over the foundations of a colonial era sandstone house and stables with a distinctive saw-cut roofline designed to harness northerly light and maximise cross-flow ventilation. Simple, pared back interiors feature a series of light and airy living spaces and a natural palette of stone, timber and glass. A private level garden at the rear of the home forms a seamless extension of the home while a separate self-contained apartment is perfect for guest, teen or au pair accommodation.
