The creative redesign of this freestanding Californian bungalow captures the essence of liveable luxury in an idyllic coastal enclave between Coogee and Maroubra Beaches. Defined by its dark charcoal facade and lush gardens, the coastal beauty has been crafted to take full advantage of a due north aspect and views over the ocean to Ben Buckler. An artistic sensibility links the old with the new via a sun-filled social space that flows to a view-swept deck and landscaped north-facing garden while bedrooms are conceived as private sanctuaries. Designed to integrate with its idyllic coastal setting, the three-bedroom home epitomises coastal cool with huge windows drawing in the northerly sunshine and ocean breezes. Perfect as is, there's real potential here too with DA approved plans by Dunn & Hillam Architects to create a coastal masterwork with an upper level capturing over Wedding Cake Island to Bondi, internal access to garaging and a resort-style garden with a circular pool, swim spa and tranquil water garden.
