About this space

Bathed in natural light and surrounded by lush tropical landscaping, this Northern Beaches cottage combines coastal charm with an easy, holiday-style warmth that makes it both inviting and highly shootable. Renovated with care and a clear design focus on connection to the outdoors, the home feels like a true retreat—private, light-filled, and layered with detail.

The open-plan kitchen, living, and dining space is the heart of the home, where vaulted ceilings and oversized window seats frame garden views and add architectural interest. A large expanse of bifold doors blurs the line between inside and out, opening to a 25sqm entertaining deck that basks in north-western sun all day. Styled with a relaxed outdoor lounge, this upper deck flows to a second tiered level featuring a concrete plunge pool (2.5m x 4m), an oversized 5m cushioned daybed, and a sculptural outdoor shower—perfect for lifestyle, swimwear, or wellness content.

The garden is a hero in its own right—thoughtfully landscaped and fully matured, with 30 metres of wide lawn framed by lush tropical planting. It’s a versatile, naturally textural backdrop for everything from campaign shoots to candid family storytelling or styled editorial.

Inside, the home includes four distinct bedrooms: a queen room with private deck access, a king-size main suite with dual-aspect windows and ensuite, a young girl’s bedroom with double bed, and a boy’s room with bunk beds—offering styling flexibility across age groups and use cases. A separate study and large laundry support production needs, and four onsite parking spaces offer ease for crew and equipment access.

Located within the Northern Beaches Council region of NSW, this is a quiet, private home that captures the relaxed essence of an Australian coastal cottage with a tropical twist. Ideal for lifestyle shoots, family or product campaigns, editorial features, and content creation with a personal, sun-soaked feel.
