Perched high above Merewether Beach, this five-bedroom coastal home captures a sense of Mediterranean ease paired with everyday luxury. Designed to embrace its elevated position, the interiors are bathed in abundant natural light, with soft curves, rounded edges, and a statement arched entry establishing a relaxed yet refined rhythm throughout the home. Warm timber floorboards anchor the spaces, complemented by rendered walls and a low-contrast palette that feels calm, cohesive, and timeless.

Materiality is central to the design. Checkerboard Carrara and Botticino marble floors mark the entry and bathrooms with quiet confidence, while elegant stone detailing, most notably the kitchen’s double bullnose benchtops, adds a sculptural softness. Timber cabinetry, brushed nickel tapware, and tactile surfaces work together to create interiors that feel layered yet restrained, balancing charm with considered elegance.

At the heart of the home, a sculptural spiral staircase rises beneath a circular skylight, drawing light deep into the plan and becoming a moment of pause and delight. Throughout, soothing spaces unfold with warmth and clarity, where texture, form, and material honesty create a home that feels both grounded and uplifting, effortless coastal living elevated through thoughtful design.
