Eclectic escape: A coastal home reimagined

The ideal beach house feels effortless. It welcomes you in, slows you down and lets the moments stretch. Eclectic Escape, a lovingly renovated Central Coast retreat by Three Birds Renovations, captures that feeling. Once closed off and compromised by water damage, the home has been transformed into a layered, open and inviting space – one that honours its relaxed coastal setting while supporting the needs of everyday living.

Perched near the shoreline, the renovation balances holiday ease with considered design decisions and carefully selected materials – creating a home that feels both elevated and enduring.

The bath strikes a careful balance between practicality and indulgence. Its back-to-wall design maximises space without compromising on the visual softness of a freestanding silhouette, creating a moment that invites you to slow down and settle in.

Even the finer details are resolved with the same intent. The rimless toilet is compact and refined, delivering a cleaner, more hygienic solution while maintaining a streamlined aesthetic.

That simplicity continues across the broader range of products available within the collection.

“Their complete range of tapware, showers and accessories means you simply choose the shape and finish that suits your style, and everything works together beautifully. Having used Mizu tapware across multiple projects, we trust the quality completely, which gives us confidence selecting it again and again in our projects.”

Colour, Texture and Everyday Comfort

Texture takes the lead within the bathrooms, where materiality is used to create spaces that feel both grounded and elevated. The Posh Domaine vanity becomes a defining feature, with its customisable thick benchtop bringing a sense of weight and permanence, balanced by a refined selection of finishes that allow each space to feel considered and personal.

The Posh Domaine back-to-wall bath introduces a softer counterpoint. Its glossy finish catches the light, adding brightness and contrast, while the space-saving design maintains a clean, architectural line without losing the presence of a freestanding form.

Elsewhere, touches of Brushed Bronze carry through via the kitchen sink mixer, tying the palette together with a subtle warmth that echoes the bathrooms without overpowering the space.

A Place to Return to

Eclectic Escape is more than a renovation. It’s a careful recalibration of a coastal home – where flow, colour and material work together with clarity and purpose.

From the reconfigured living zones through to the bathrooms, each element has a focus on longevity and ease. Posh Domaine pieces and Mizu tapware are integrated seamlessly: each decision reinforces the same intent, to create a home that feels cohesive, durable and deeply liveable.

A coastal retreat defined not by trend, but by thoughtful choices designed to endure.
