Private & functional, this sustainable compact modular home is a modern take on a fishing cottage. Garden designed by Jim Fogarty Design.

The properties frontage includes expansive glazed doors opening to a large deck. Accurately placed battened awnings and screens provide shade and privacy, encouraging residents to make the most of their outdoor living year round.
