12 Shackel Ave, Clovelly NSW 2031, Australia

On the doorstep of Clovelly Beach, this freestanding home by DKO Architecture breaks free from the norm to deliver a cutting-edge contemporary beach house that brings a bold new dimension to beachside living. Set amid established tropical gardens in a coveted seaside cul-de-sac, the three-storey home has been designed to take full advantage of panoramic views over Wedding Cake Island that soothe the senses and set the scene for a relaxed lifestyle. Built without compromise, the entire top floor is devoted to living and entertaining with a wall of windows on the north side maximising natural light and a loggia-style terrace that seemingly floats above the coastal landscape beyond. All four bedrooms are positioned on one level, the main conceived as a private parents’ retreat, while the lower level features a huge rumpus or entertaining space that opens out to a child-friendly garden. Just 100m to the beach, this luxurious family haven comes with every creature comfort and invaluable triple parking.
