North Balgowlah Family Entertainer
A coastal-inspired knock-down rebuild with cathedral ceilings, open-plan living, and a resort-style outdoor retreat
This North Balgowlah project is a stunning example of how thoughtful design and expert project management can completely transform a modest home into a sophisticated family entertainer. What was once a humble fibro shack is now a multi-level coastal residence, brought to life by Organic Australian Living through a full knock-down rebuild and extension.

About the project
Working with a compact 450sqm site, we created a spacious home that meets the demands of modern Australian living — balancing functionality, style, and connection to nature. We handled every phase, from council approvals and interior design to fixture procurement and final styling, ensuring a seamless and stress-free experience for our client.
Key features include:
A relaxed coastal aesthetic with cathedral ceilings, exposed timber beams, and a stone-clad fireplace
An open-plan kitchen flowing directly into the outdoor entertainment space
A swimming pool, freestanding cabana, and outdoor kitchen, perfect for year-round entertaining
Smart spatial planning to accommodate a large family and guests, all on a small suburban block
This home celebrates Organic Australian Living — using natural materials, considered details, and a strong connection between indoor and outdoor zones to create a welcoming, light-filled sanctuary.

Kind words from this client
“Lifestyle Design Co. completely transformed our home into a five-bedroom coastal haven. The interiors are refined yet relaxed, and the outdoor space — the pool and cabana — is our favourite spot to entertain.
Their attention to detail and collaboration with OPG made the entire process feel seamless. From design to final styling, everything was handled with care, precision, and professionalism. We couldn’t be happier with the result”
