The home is entered from the higher western side via a raised boardwalk that steps down suspended above the native grasses. The home consists of a three storey primary structure plus a smaller two storey pavilion, linked with a glazed bridge. The main section stretches the width of the site, taking maximum advantage of the ocean views. Living is located on the central level and opens on to a cantilevered deck that hangs in the tree tops and provides the communal focus. On the top level is the main bedroom and a piano gallery, linked to the main living level by an inviting stair. On the garden level are guest bedrooms, allowing the owners to generally live contained on the upper two storeys when the extended family is not 'beached' at the house.
