About this space

Nestled in the Ku-ring-gai Council area of New South Wales, this one-of-a-kind weatherboard cottage offers a rich, layered backdrop for creative shoots of all kinds. Eclectic yet cohesive, the single-level home seamlessly blends architectural charm with stylistic contrasts—from rustic exposed beams and a pitched ceiling to sun-filled interiors and a serene Mediterranean-style pool area.

The cottage exterior holds onto its heritage feel with classic weatherboard cladding, while inside, the space opens up into a naturally bright and inviting environment. Crisp white walls bounce soft, diffused light across every surface, making it ideal for both lifestyle shoots and more controlled commercial setups. Exposed wooden beams add warmth and texture overhead, drawing the eye upward and adding depth to wide-angle shots. The layout flows with ease, offering multiple zones to work within without ever feeling cramped.

Beyond the interiors, the outdoor settings deliver even more visual versatility. The Mediterranean-inspired pool zone introduces curved lines, natural stone textures, and a sun-drenched palette that contrasts beautifully with the lush, English-style garden—a romantic backdrop of greenery, floral detail, and layered landscaping. Whether you’re framing a laid-back summer shoot or an elevated fashion editorial, the outdoor areas alone could carry a full day of content.

Inside, the homely and unpretentious styling gives photographers and directors flexibility to stage scenes or shoot the space as-is. There’s practical ease too: natural light filters through consistently, air-conditioning offers comfort on shoot days, and the property features an outdoor shower for lifestyle or swimwear campaigns. Pets are allowed, cooking is permitted, and the home is well-suited to everything from social content creation to music videos, branding shoots, and even small-scale film productions.

Located in Ku-ring-gai, NSW, this home offers a private, character-filled canvas for creatives who value both aesthetic impact and shoot-day functionality. It’s a place where warmth and personality meet polished composition—easy to work in, rewarding to shoot in.
