Originally a double-framed metal garage, Coledale Beach Studio is now a light, bright and compact house overlooking the ocean. Originally home to interior designer Cushla McFadden and her family of 4, McFaddenā€™s mother now calls it home. Constructed from prefabricated panels, the striking exterior features two garage-like bi-folding doors that open onto the open-plan living, kitchen, dining and bathroom that hide behind a curved wall. A set of sliding doors on the opposite side of the room open directly only a closed deck, creating cross ventilation and adding to the expansive feel of the double volume space. A set of storage steps, which house the TV and the bulk of the studioā€™s storage, lead to an enclosed mezzanine bedroom that looks out onto the ocean through a large glass interior window. This thoughtfully designed studio is a proof-of-concept on how more sustainable and intergenerational living models can be a matter of seeing beyond what already is to what could be.

I feel like no one in the comments section listened to what she said. They lived there temporarily (probably during main house renovation?), and her mom is going to live in the small house. They never intended to live with teenagers. For the limited time when kids are this small I feel itā€™s perfect šŸ’›

Really calming cosy little space. She has made a lot of great design decisions. I imagine their son would really want to move in there from the main house as soon as he's in his teens.

Beautiful design and setting. As a 70yr old Iā€™d be delighted to live there if I were on my own. Must be lovely to know that most days are going to be warm and you can open the place up. I live by the sea but the Bristol Channel doesnā€™t quite give off the same vibešŸ˜†

I'm envious because even though the place is small, the whole area is free from a building so they can have a lot of options for light and air. My house have the same measurement, but my right and back walls are jointed with the neighbors walls. Sigh. She's done a great job, though. Love the minimalistic design too.

Love it. We donā€™t need much to be happy. The balcony is amazing with a world class view too!

Wow! That is gorgeous. I love what she said about smaller spaces allowing for the use of higher end finishes/products because there are less of them. Her Mom will love living there as her family did šŸ˜

I'd happily live there for the rest of my life. Besides nothing beats the NSW sunshine.

The one thing I'd have changed is the concrete ex-driveway wedge between the street window and street. I'd have had that removed from the get go, and planted shrubs, a hedge or a slow growing tree there, to let some greenery in when that window is open and provide natural privacy inside, plus just give the structure more of a grounded impression, less of an ex-garage look. Oh and having build myself a small kitchen this size once, I'd do what I did then, add a two tiered trolley on big industrial wheels with a butchers block top and a rail with hooks to the side, for some prepspace and mise en place That's easily wheeled around and can be brought out onto the patio for easy serving. Beyond that, it's a great design, they even thought of a cleaning/utility cabinet with vertical storage, nice touch!

To give a bit more privacy when the front double doors are open I might a container hedge in what was the driveway. I think the inside design is brilliant!

There are many wonderful solutions here! Grinding down the original floor to expose a natural mosaic. The curve on the shower wall to assist flow to the kitchen. Closing off the upstairs and creating a family resting/sleeping area. The view from that window! - first the inner world then the outer world. ..... I have never appreciated minimalism for living spaces but this is not visually cold and it is a guest house so it needs less practicality (washer/dryer in the main house). The folding doors on the dining room create the tropical feel of a lanai. It becomes a porch on the public side to engage with neighbors in a waterfront community. Also, best placement & space usage for the required large TV. Excellent design! Thanks for finding and for sharing.

5:10 As fellow cattledog lover. I like the fact that your's is using the polished cement as a cool pillow.

Absolutely impressive transformation from garage to a cozy beach studio! The clever utilization of space and natural light gives this compact Australian retreat a spacious and inviting feel. A perfect blend of functionality and seaside charm.

Also want to add that I appreciate how this showcases just how soft and calming an all-white interior can be. ā¤ā¤

I love any homes that are small, clean, bright, white and minimal so for me, this build would be a lovely simple place to live. But as a Granny flat, I wouldnā€™t want to navigate stairs at night to use the downstairs bath room. I would also want black out blinds or curtains across the mezzanine bedroom window.

It's perfect - for two seniors (like my wife & me) it would be perfect - so comfortable & peaceful. Excellent work. One of the best uses of space I have ever seen. Thanks for the review.

Itā€™s lovely and bright! What a great temporary space, especially when the kids are small. Growing up we had a small cottage we spent ours summers at. I love a small spaceā€¦ it may not be great with a growing family but in the interim itā€™s terrific. Great for the Mum and even a couple!

This is just brilliant. I really enjoyed this small house tour. Such a superb way to repurpose the space of an older 2 car garage. Thank you for sharing.
