A Designer Coastal couples Retreat!

A lovingly restored 1 bedroom mid-century coastal cottage, thoughtfully reimagined by an interior designer and chef to balance understated luxury with relaxed beach house ease.

The home reflects a shared passion for considered design, beautiful materials and slow coastal living, a house where every detail has been carefully considered only a short drive from Umina and Ettalong Beach

The furniture is a curated collection of original mid-century pieces, including iconic worksby Charles Eames, layered with an eclectic art collection and an evolving selection of collectible ceramics and vintage dinnerware.

High-end finishes are woven throughout, creating a sense of understated luxury that feels refined yet effortless. Marble benchtops anchor the chef`s kitchen, complemented by a marble dining table and carefully selected fixtures that elevate the space while maintaining warmth and simplicity.

The home is beautiful, yet never precious, designed to be lived in and enjoyed. It is a space where considered design and comfort sit quietly together.

The kitchen is fully equipped for those who love to cook and flows seamlessly into light-filled living spaces. French doors and a kitchen servery opens onto the garden deck with high stools for casual dining.

Created by passionate gardeners, the lush surrounds form a private oasis that envelops the home. Greenery frames every outlook, and the house is filled with living plants, bringing softness, vitality and a calming presence throughout.

Outside, the front deck features a generous daybed for long afternoons and a recycled brick fireplace that doubles as a wood-fired barbecue, perfect for slow evenings and quiet coastal moments.

The spacious bathroom offers a double walk-in shower and a deep soaking bath, creating a spa-like retreat designed for rest and restoration. The bedroom incudes a spacious ensuite.

Wellness is thoughtfully embedded throughout the home. Luxury linen sheets, high-quality bath towels, chemical-free cleaning products, and personal bathroom amenities with no toxins including Koala Eco ensure a calm, healthy environment that supports relaxation and renewal.

Located on a main road with convenient access to surrounding suburbs and beaches, the home is set well back from the street, creating a surprisingly private and peaceful oasis.
This is more than a holiday house, it is a considered coastal retreat designed for intimacy, calm and wellbeing.
