With a view like this who needs colour … white highlights the natural tones and nature itself.

I love black walls with vivid white trim anywhere but particularly in a beach house.  It works brilliantly with earthy timber tones.

You can so easily bring in a smart pattern when you have a colour palette of predominantly white.

It is all in the detail … black of course !!

Or the floor … where rugs will become your focal point.

I love the simplicity of this architectural style .. timeless. Pandanus perfect !!

Always love a skillion roof .. not to mention the frangipani.

Set high on the hill .. the ocean view from this original cottage is breathtaking. The perfect location if you don’t have beach frontage.

This had always been my all time favourite beach house, however sadly the original windows with lattice shutters have been replaced with french doors .. for obvious reasons.  Still fabulous however not quite as charming. It does have an exotic coastal garden and beach frontage !!
