Not Your Average Beach House

Located on the relaxed shores of Manly, these townhomes by DKO Architecture are redefining coastal living. The design heroes organic textures and natural materials, but strays from the typically neutral aesthetic of beachside homes — oozing urban sophistication.

A Fusion of Nature and Refinement

Throughout the homes, raw stacked stone walls and timber finishes establish an earthy, elemental feel. This organic beauty is echoed by the raw, handcrafted texture of X-Bond Microcement surfaces. Elegance is communicated through colour; think walnut-stained veneers and grey tones.

Seamless X-Bond Microcement

Creating a continuous flow throughout the interiors, our microcement has effortlessly connected spaces from the kitchen to the dining areas and upstairs. Adding to the sense of spaciousness, the timber-lined ceilings make a bold design statement.

A Sculptural Centrepiece

The sculptural X-Bond staircase is a showstopper, embodying minimalist luxury. The winding curves are accentuated by soft, warm lighting that highlights the craftsmanship. It’s a defining feature that perfectly encapsulates the homes’ understated yet striking design ethos.

Living in Harmony with the Environment

Designed to embrace the stunning surroundings, these homes blur the line between indoors and out. Large sliding glass doors invite the coastal environment into the living spaces, offering residents a constant connection to nature. After all, a dream home begins with a dream location.
