Harbour Beach House

Significant alterations and additions were made to this house located on an intimate beach within a quiet bay of Sydney Harbour.

The renovations are a collaboration with interior design firm Thomas Hamel and Associates, and include formal living and dining rooms with an open plan family/kitchen/meals space overlooking the pool area and bay.

The upper level includes three generous bedrooms with ensuites and a private study.

The modifications to the existing house were treated carefully with a slight contemporary approach, while the interiors are classic cool and tranquil.
