A contemporary coastal residence in Murrays Bay, designed for future-proof living with universal design principles, featuring cascading levels, stunning cliff top views, and secure, private spaces for family.

Located on a steep coastal piece of land in Murrays Bay, this new dwelling was developed specifically for clients who were approaching retirement. It was imperative that the residence incorporated principles of universal design and future-proofing. This project maximizes cliff top views at each cascading level with a central light well with personal lift.

The upper floor includes an accessible plunge pool alongside a large deck entertaining space. With separate access points, the upper floor remains secure and private while the owners are away, allowing extended family to continue residing on the lower floors.

The rear site for the house lent room for a choice of striking modern materials: plaster masonry walls and horizontal Nu-Wall aluminium metal cladding make a cool, bold impact appropriate for a contemporary home beside the ocean.

“Without any hesitation we can say that the best thing about our new home project was choosing Creative Arch as our design team. They came up with a design that was aesthetically pleasing, functional and suited to a challenging coastal site. They completely understood and worked closely with our brief. The panoramic windows and outdoor living space enhanced the views, complimented by a pleasingly casual and open interior. We had an excellent working relationship with Creative Arch right to the end. Communication was open and we had complete trust in our architect. The way in which our building plans and documentation passed through Council without any hitches is testament to the architect’s skill. We have received many compliments for our house from both friends and total strangers. We would not hesitate to recommend Creative Arch to anyone looking for innovative and competent architectural services.”
