$2,000,000 - $2,200,000
An inspired collaboration between Cotter Reid Architects and MOKK studio, Lightbox House is an architect-designed family residence where considered design, natural light and effortless functionality come together in one of Ocean Grove’s most tightly held coastal pockets.
Positioned just 250m (approx.) from the beach in one direction and the vibrant cafés, restaurants and boutiques of The Terrace in the other, the home delivers an exceptional sense of privacy and retreat while remaining moments from everything that makes this location so desirable.
A sleek contemporary façade establishes an understated street presence, punctuated by the distinctive polycarbonate-clad, backlit garage. Inside, a considered palette of Victorian Ash flooring, VJ panelling and stone surfaces complements the home’s mid-century modern influences, while extensive glazing, skylights and soaring pitched ceilings draw natural light deep into the two-level floorplan.
At the heart of the home, open-plan living and dining unfolds beneath a striking 5-metre pitched ceiling, centred around a sophisticated entertainer’s kitchen with a full suite of Fisher & Paykel appliances including induction cooking, twin wall ovens and integrated dishwasher and refrigeration.
Triple-stacked sliding doors extend the living space outdoors, opening to a north-facing alfresco setting designed for relaxed entertaining rather than upkeep, with a full-width deck overlooking the architecturally landscaped Mud Office gardens.
The main bedroom forms a private retreat, complete with a fully fitted walk-in robe and beautifully appointed ensuite, while two further skylit bathrooms continue the home's refined material palette, including a family bathroom with an internally contoured bath.
A dedicated children’s zone provides two bedrooms and its own generous living area, creating separation and flexibility for family life. Downstairs, a versatile studio or second main bedroom includes its own ensuite and private alfresco, offering an ideal space for guests, extended family, teenagers or working from home.
Every detail has been considered for contemporary comfort and efficiency, with multi-zone reverse-cycle climate control, double-glazed windows and doors, 10.5kW solar with 13kW battery storage, security cameras, ABI Interiors fixtures, a Euro laundry and fitted study nook. A double garage completes the home.
Featured in The Design Files, Lightbox House is a distinctive architectural offering that combines the considered design of a contemporary coastal home with the everyday practicality of a highly resolved family residence.
