The house comprises of a substantial living area adjacent to a master bedroom pavilion which run parallel to the beach side. Full height sliding glass doors on both sides allows see-through views from the protected outdoor living courtyard on the entrance side of the house. The courtyard is backed by the return of a second bedroom wing on one side, and an outdoor fireplace and precast concrete wall on the other, which creates a sunny sheltered space to enjoy the view should there be onshore wind.

Being single level, the house sits quietly framed by pohutakawa trees and is book-ended by precast concrete walls which, along with the pale cedar cladding, blend well into the natural environment.
