Facing north west and set on approximately 700 square metres, all aspects of the house are carefully positioned to capture views and northern sun. This maritime-inspired property on the water’s edge features curved roofs and nautical detailing with a sweeping open plan living and dining space.

There are four bedrooms with master and main guest ensuite. The five bathrooms have travertine marble with Philippe Starck bathware.

The Brushbox floor of the original cottage was salvaged from one of Australia's earliest schools, while the rest of the house is finished in extra wide floorboards from slow growing hard Canadian Maple.

The teak deck is modelled on the design of the yacht Behring, which, after being involved in polar exploration, in 1882 became one of the two powder-hulks anchored in the then remote location of Seaforth. We now know the area as Powder Hulk Bay.
