Southerly views to Lion Island, Barrenjoey Headland and Box Head are the available attributes of this flat, beachfront site. In contrast, neighbours to the north, east and west encourage inwardly oriented views. Protection is required from the extremes of the south, while northern winter sun is needed inside the main living spaces. Split into three pavilions and separated by two courtyards, the house has been designed to meet these site generated requirements. It looks south from all areas through aligned openings, while also opening into protected, private and sunny outdoor spaces. Structural materials (including rammed earth, concrete and fibre cement sheet) are exposed to create a beach house with an uncomplicated feel where the owners can come together with family to unwind.

“It seemed to be that every time we came across a house renovation we particularly admired, it had been designed by Castlepeake. When it was time for us to renovate, we had no hesitation in getting them involved. They understood our brief and developed innovative floor plans that increased light penetration whilst keeping within the building footprint. Castlepeake were also happy for us (first time renovators) to be a part of the design process and bring our personalities into the build. Our century old Californian bungalow received a well-deserved makeover with the perfect blend of modern and old. The team at Castlepeake assisted every step of the way from concept, detailed design phase to construction and completion.”
