INTERIOR DESIGN FOR SYDNEY'S NORTHERN BEACHES, MOSMAN AND EASTERN SUBURBS
SEAFORTH HOUSE
The New Yorkers that Live in the Upside Down House
From New York to the Northern Beaches,
a family's dream Hamptons home comes to life through a complete home renovation
WHEN AN AUSTRALIAN EXPAT FAMILY RETURNED FROM NEW YORK TO SYDNEY’S NORTHERN BEACHES, THEY HAD A VISION: TURN A DATED 1970s BLONDE-BRICK HOUSE INTO THEIR DREAM HAMPTONS-INSPIRED RETREAT. A COMPLETE TRANSFORMATION INSIDE AND OUT REPLACED THE TIRED FACADE WITH CRISP WHITE CLADDING AND REWORKED THE INTERIOR TO BRING A FRESH TAKE ON COASTAL ELEGANCE.
AN UPSIDE-DOWN FLOOR PLAN PUTS THE MAIN LIVING SPACES UPSTAIRS, MAKING THE MOST OF NATURAL LIGHT AND SEA BREEZES. A MUDROOM SITS NEATLY BENEATH THE STAIRCASE, WHILE THE GARAGE AND STORAGE AREAS WERE TRANSFORMED INTO A SELF-CONTAINED RETREAT WITH TWO BEDROOMS, A KITCHENETTE, LIVING AREA, BATHROOM AND LAUNDRY.
SISAL-WRAPPED STAIRS LEAD TO THE OPEN-PLAN UPPER LEVEL, WHERE WALLS WERE REMOVED AND OUTDOOR SPACES ENCLOSED TO CREATE MORE ROOM TO LIVE AND A BETTER FLOW.
AT ITS HEART IS A HAMPTONS-STYLE KITCHEN DESIGNED WITH A BAKER IN MIND, WITH CLEVER DETAILS INCLUDING A HIDDEN LAUNDRY CHUTE. OVERLOOKING THE NEW POOL AND LUSH GARDEN, IT SETS THE STAGE FOR ENTERTAINING.
CUSTOM FURNITURE AND CONSIDERED INTERIOR STYLING, BRING UNIQUE PERSONALITY AND COMFORT, MAKING THIS FAMILY’S RETURN FEEL LIKE A TRUE HOMECOMING.
