3 Sunrise Road, Mossy Point, NSW 2537

On an elevated stretch of the NSW coastline, about 300 kilometres south of Sydney, and with filtered views of the river and ocean, stands a house that precisely slots into the self-assured body of work of multi-award-winning Melbourne practice, Edition Office. The Mossy Point House echoes the vernacular of the quintessential fibro shack, but reimagines it in a stripped-back, bold new form.

The simplicity of the façade belies the complexity and thoughtful amenity of the interior. Lined in hardwood plywood, and with spotted gum floors, it is in harmony with its surroundings. On entry, in the middle of the house, it is immediately intriguing with its unexpected angles, planes and volumes within.

A dramatic piece of V-shaped cabinetry separates the private spaces from the social side of the house; living/dining, with woodfire stove, and kitchen/large butler’s pantry (a discreet stairway leads down to self-contained guest accommodation) to the right and to the left; two bedrooms, two studies, bathroom, wc and laundry to the other.

Rooms, with views to the ocean, open to a broad deck, which wraps around three sides of the house. Set within the deck, with a diamond-shaped void in the roof above, is a sheltered outdoor dining area, formed by the inside of the cabinetry.

Within easy reach of both Sydney and Canberra, and a short drive from the townships of Moruya and Batemans Bay, the Mossy Point House works equally well as a principal residence as a holiday home, and has been thoughtfully designed to accommodate residents’ ongoing needs.

We look forward to welcoming you to an outstanding example of site-specific, Australian contemporary design.
