This Manly renovation transforms an unassuming weatherboard beach house into a calm yet richly layered coastal home. Behind its modest exterior, the interior opens to a series of light-filled spaces, where opulent detailing and refined finishes are balanced with the practical needs of family living.

Delivered through a close collaboration of creatives, Imogen Naylor was engaged for interior design, shaping a decadent yet welcoming interior. Beyond the home, the garden has been carefully considered as a secluded retreat, offering privacy, wellness and a sense of escape from the surrounding streetscape.
