Layered lighting and tropical planting turn arrival into a sequence, stepping up to the front door.

A floating spotted gum staircase and double-height void give the entry light and lift.

The stair lands on a curved terrazzo plinth — a small moment of craft beside the stone fireplace.

A curved, fluted timber island grounds the kitchen, with a window splashback drawing in garden light.

A full butler's pantry keeps the main kitchen calm — storage, prep and second sink out of sight.

The mudroom brings order to everyday comings and goings, in walnut and fluted panelling.

Appliances sit at working height on drawer plinths — small decisions that make daily life easier.

Brass and opal pendants hang low over the island, warming the kitchen's palette after dark.

Living, kitchen and alfresco run together as one space, with the garden always in view.

Big sliders dissolve the wall between lounge and alfresco — one long entertaining space.

A picture window frames the neighbouring palm, landscape borrowed as artwork.

Concealed LED strips float each tread — precision joinery meeting electrical planning.

A shared study runs the length of the room, with shutters and terrace light to work by.

The media room keeps its palette soft — sage fluting and cove lighting over spotted gum.

Walnut and sage carry the home's mid-century thread into the bathrooms.

The main suite takes the view quietly — a walnut window seat and a balcony for the evening light.

Built-in walnut joinery gives each bedroom its own study and dressing space.

From the upper balcony, the skyline reads over the treetops — the payoff of a hilltop street.

The alfresco works year-round — barbecue, fridge and shade beside the water.

A generous shallow ledge makes the pool as much for lounging as for laps.

Evening lighting picks out the layers of the entry — stone, battens and palms.
