Architecturally Bold Beachside Abode

Gold Coast architect Matthew Eagle challenges the norm with his bold ‘black box’ design, a refreshing and functional family home inspired by the humble beach shack. The dark exterior contrasts with a generous light-filled interior and the green lush surroundings. A light well illuminates a stunning void upon entry, where a vaulted overpass and staircase with stepped displays provide moments of pause enroute to upper-level bedrooms, bathrooms and a shared living room. Ground floor living and dining zones open on two sides to the outdoors, where an east-facing garden captures the morning sun and soft sea breezes flow across a grassy court and swimming pool. A walkabout town Mermaid Beach lifestyle beckons, with the beach, cafes, restaurants and shopping all a short stroll. Move in, invest with income or secure your seaside lock and leave holiday home. *approximate
