WHAT THE CURRENT OWNERS LOVE …
“We have absolutely loved designing and building this home – it's been a true labour of love and privilege to see it take shape and we’ve loved every minute of the adventure. From working with the talented Chris Austin from Couvaras, who put all of our dreams on paper, to our wonderful builder Luke Sweeney, it's so rewarding to sit back now and see the dream be a reality.
We are in the building industry ourselves so we knew we wanted to surround ourselves with professionals who could support us in our dream of creating a spectacular beachside home with its foundations based in the traditional Hamptons elements of space and light, soaring ceilings, timber balustrades, shaker cabinetry and outdoor spaces framed by picket balustrading, with the wow factor that sets it apart from the cookie-cutter everyday design and we’ve achieved that with this special home that just so seamlessly blends into the streetscape and Esplanade like its always been here.”
