Point Piper Residence I
Originally built in the 1930s, this distinguished Point Piper residence has been thoughtfully reimagined into a refined yet relaxed harbourside retreat, overlooking the sweeping waters of Rose Bay.
In collaboration with renowned interior designer Thomas Hamel, the home’s interiors embrace an eclectic yet cohesive palette—layering textures, materials and global influences to create spaces that feel both plush and light, sophisticated yet effortlessly liveable. The result is a series of warm, inviting spaces defined by striking details and a quiet sense of luxury.
Our involvement began with targeted remediation works before evolving into a comprehensive transformation of the property. As the scope expanded, the project grew to encompass a full internal renovation, reconfiguration of key spaces and significant external works.
A pivotal design move saw the original courtyard pool relocated to the front garden, allowing the former pool area to be transformed into a generous alfresco entertaining space connecting the main residence and detached apartment. The new pool now captured panoramic views across Rose Bay harbour, whilst becoming an extension of the main entertaining hub of the home.
Executed over more than three years, the project was delivered in carefully staged zones while the family remained in residence—an approach that required considered planning and a highly collaborative process between client, designer and builder, whilst also requiring multiple approvals.
Completed in November 2025 on a 1,450m² site, the result is a layered, character-rich home that balances heritage charm with contemporary harbourside living.
