Mid Week House Snoop...Holy Mackerel on Great Mackerel!

Loving this contemporary home set on the beach side of Great Mackerel beach. a little reasonable unknown seaside spot in on Sydney's Northern Beaches & Pittwater located opposite Palm Beach. It's accessible only by boat so if you're in the mood for great way to escape the regular grind, a stunning weekender, or could work from home or commute via boat to the main  then car - then this would be the home for you!
The interior palette with it's wide use of neutral tones, natural timber stains, large glass panes with open & vaulted ceilings leather - is highly sympathetic to the natural bush & beach side location. Allowing both interior & exterior spaces to fuse fluidly. Although only 2 bedrooms - this home's Palatial quality lies with it's position & location... just supremely divine.
Take a look,

Palatial House Snoop...Contemporary Cottage on the Beaches





Nestled in one of my favourite Northern Beaches suburbs of Avalon, you will find this gorgeous Palatial Contemporary Sandstone & Weatherboard Cottage. I loved it for it's successful combination of keeping original integrity and it's newly renovated spaces in keeping with a French Riviera-meets-Hampton's style with an Australian coastal lifestyle flavour.
I am always a 'sucker' for sandstone features particularly when teamed with a fireplace, as well as the comfortable freshness of the undercover verandah sitting & dining area - much like a Queenslander, quintessentially Australian. The simplicity of the neutral, soft colour scheme lends itself to bringing the outdoors in with considered use of stone, natural timber, and loved leather.
Take a look, have a snoop & see what you think.....

Palatial House Snoop... Beachside Hinterland.







There aren't too many homes that are featured on Palatial Living's House Snoop that I wouldn't want to live in - gosh they are all stunning in their own way, and often when we look for a home they are not only aesthetic drivers such as style, finishes, colours and overall look but we also fit for purpose - is it spacious enough, can we grow in it and with it, is it a great location?
This home featured this week on Palatial Living's House Snoop - has some many of these checked boxes it's hard not to want to keep the floor plans and put it into the 'dream home' folder, well in fact with this home I did just that - I thought the overall space & style  [Australian coastal meets Hampton's style] was phenomenally perfect - for me! I always keep a little folder of images with colours, floor plans and ideas so that one day when I have that 'forever home' to renovate or build I can revisit the folder and see what I still love and what might still be applicable.





Take a little look at this home located in Sydney's Central Coast suburb of Avoca Beach, perched in the hinterland of the beach - the surrounding lush hillside and is approx. 1 1/2hr drive from Sydney [in good traffic!] but I think once you snoop around you'll understand why it would be worth a commute or being able to telecommute and work from home when possible!
Enjoy,

More Coral & More Blue White...

Following my post 'Palatial Blue White Poolside Entertaining'.... I just had to share this with you -I love the mix of Coastal & Asian influences through the teak bamboo chairs and Chinese style urn pedestals combined with the bold use of Coral Red in a coral pattern in the upholstery, with Blue White of the decor & lighting pieces against an all white backdrop.
