Property details

Listing # OPA25147 | Listed on 11 June

Born from a collaboration between locals Built Chch and Brown Dog Architecture and completed in 2023, this standout Sumner residence is a masterclass in contemporary coastal design - where bold architecture, intelligent functionality and exceptional craftsmanship work in perfect harmony.

Designed to reflect its seaside surroundings, the home balances striking visual impact with effortless liveability. A dramatic barn-inspired gable crowns the central living space, creating impressive volume beneath soaring ceilings, while expansive glazing fills the interiors with natural light and strengthens the connection to the outdoors.

The open-plan living and dining zone revolves around a beautifully crafted kitchen, complete with a generous butler's pantry and a suite of thoughtful features that make everyday living and entertaining equally effortless. Custom joinery, statement lighting and carefully selected finishes add warmth, texture and character.

The floor plan has been cleverly configured to adapt to every stage of family life. The ground-floor master suite offers a private retreat with a walk-in wardrobe and beautifully finished ensuite, while upstairs, three further spacious bedrooms are paired with a second living area - providing the flexibility families need and separation everyone appreciates.

Every detail has been considered for comfort and practicality, from ducted heating and cooling to extensive storage solutions, a stylish family bathroom with bath and separate shower, separate laundry and an internal-access double garage.

Outside, wraparound decking and established landscaping create inviting spaces to relax, entertain and enjoy the changing seasons. Striking Metalcraft Espan tray and Rockcote Integra AAC panel cladding reinforce the home's architectural identity, delivering a bold yet timeless street presence.

Perfectly positioned within walking distance of Sumner Village, local schools, the beach and coastal walkways, this is a home that captures the essence of modern coastal living - sophisticated, functional and unmistakably Sumner.
