Behind the black panel walls of an unusual beach house on the New South Wales Central Coast lies a breathtaking modern family home that boasts uninterrupted views of the Pacific Ocean.
Built 10 years ago on Forresters Beach, between Terrigal and Bateau Bay, the four-bedroom, three-bathroom home is fitted with a games room, home gym, multiple living rooms, a frameless shower and a courtyard.
The architect Matt Thitchener built the property to withstand cyclones if necessary, due to the fact that his parents – who previously owned the house – are structural engineers.
It is split across three levels and houses decks on each level, alongside a beautiful spacious rooftop and spa.

The house has two double garages joined by an undercover passage dubbed ‘The Bunker’, which offers parking for another four cars.
There is a track that leads directly to Forresters Beach via the adjoining Wyrrabalond National Park.
‘The house is extremely private and on a clear day, you have views all the way to Cape Three Points past Terrigal,’ real estate agent Baraka Leporte told FEMAIL.
‘It’s a home that easily accommodates friends and family with superb flexibility and a thoroughly modern edge.’

They intend to use the space as a ‘weekender’ or holiday home when they want to get away from the city.
