Tavira Alfresco Limestone runs from the entry stairs through to the pool surrounds and entertaining terrace, creating a seamless, durable connection between arrival, outdoor living and entertaining in this Connells Point residence.
In Connells Point, this home was built around the idea that arrival and outdoor living should feel like one continuous experience, not separate spaces.
Kostos Construction & Development worked with Sareen Stone to select a limestone tough enough for daily pool use and coastal sun, without losing its warmth or character over time.
The result reflects a growing preference among Sydney homeowners for materials that are as practical as they are beautiful.
- Building style
- Contemporary
Positioned in Sydney’s bayside suburb of Connells Point, this contemporary residential project pairs clean architectural lines with the organic warmth of natural stone. Sareen Stone’s Tavira Alfresco Limestone has been used extensively across the outdoor spaces, from the pool surrounds and entertaining terrace to the front entry stairs, creating a cohesive connection between levels while supporting seamless indoor-outdoor living.
Material Application
Tavira Alfresco Limestone forms the foundation of the home’s outdoor living areas, providing a durable and practical surface for poolside entertaining, dining and everyday family life. Its soft tonal variation and natural texture complement the contemporary palette of white render, timber accents and expansive glazing, bringing warmth and balance to the architecture.
The same material continues across the entry stairs, establishing a sense of continuity from the street through to the rear outdoor spaces and reinforcing the home’s cohesive material palette.
Indoor–Outdoor Connection
Designed to maximise natural light and outdoor living, the residence opens seamlessly onto a series of terraces and entertaining zones. Tavira Alfresco Limestone extends throughout these areas, helping to visually connect interior and exterior spaces while creating a calm and consistent backdrop for the landscape and architecture.
The stone’s understated character allows surrounding design elements to take centre stage, supporting a refined and timeless aesthetic.
Natural Stone Pool Surrounds and Entertaining Areas
At the heart of the home, the pool and surrounding terrace create a generous outdoor retreat designed for relaxation and entertaining. Tavira Alfresco Limestone provides a durable, slip-resistant surface underfoot, making it ideally suited to poolside applications while maintaining the natural elegance associated with limestone.
The result is a home where the transition between arrival, outdoor living and entertaining feels seamless, supported by a material palette that is both timeless and enduring.
