Magenta Shores Residence – A Coastal Retreat Designed for a Relaxed Lifestyle. Nestled within the exclusive Magenta Shores community, this home transformation has been carefully designed to reflect the owners’ vision for a refined, low-maintenance lifestyle in their retirement.
With a passion for golf, reading, and entertaining, our clients sought a space that would balance relaxation with an active coastal and resort-style way of living. Our design approach focused on enhancing their connection to the stunning golf course setting while introducing modern comforts and timeless materials.
The alterations and additions retain the existing ground floor footprint, with significant upgrades to improve both functionality and flow. A newly renovated kitchen, laundry, and front entry create a welcoming and sophisticated aesthetic, while a refreshed alfresco area seamlessly extends the indoor living experience outdoors. To create warmth and cohesion, timber-look flooring replaces tiles in the main living spaces, and plush new carpeting enhances the comfort of the bedrooms.
A key element of the design is the first-floor addition, thoughtfully planned to provide private retreat spaces tailored to the clients’ lifestyle. This level introduces a dedicated home office with gym area, a cozy library for their love of reading, and a retreat-style fourth bedroom with a walk-in robe and private deck—offering a serene space to unwind while overlooking the golf course.
Externally, the home has been reimagined with a refined yet understated palette inspired by the natural surroundings. A box-form upper level, clad with Hardies Linea Weatherboards, Knotwood timber-look accents and dry-stack stone, creates a striking yet harmonious architectural statement. The widened, stone-clad letterbox, extended entry path, and feature walls bring a sense of grandeur to the home’s façade while maintaining a connection to the coastal landscape. The garage door will be upgraded to a decorative timber batten style, complimenting the timber accents, adding a layer of warmth and texture.
With a design that prioritizes effortless living, breathtaking views, and a seamless blend of natural materials, this home is a true reflection of our clients’ dream retirement lifestyle—one that is elegant, timeless, and perfectly suited to its coastal and golf course setting.
