13 Leonidas Road, North Coogee, WA 6163

Life by the sea is simply serene and this idyllic two-storey retreat captures that feeling so well. Frangipanis frame the crisp-white exterior, while stone and timber highlights nod to the natural landscape. There's a relaxed village feel to this peaceful coastal community, and little use for your car when you can walk or bike to just about anything – including the beach steps away.

Built in 2015 by Ben Trager Homes, this seaside sanctuary is a testament to laidback luxury: calming interiors, lots of natural light and a smooth canvas of polished concrete floors that flow to the sheltered seclusion of a north-facing alfresco. At the front of the home are two bedrooms; one with sliding, mirrored built-in robes, the other a main retreat with all the trimmings: stylish, sliding barn door, walk-in robe and spa-like ensuite for two with a double vanity, deep-soak bath tub, glass-framed rainwater shower, and separate WC (also accessed from the hallway).

Built-in storage is a real feature throughout in the hallway, under-stair area, or laundry – which also leads to a pebbled drying courtyard with a lovely dragon tree – as the open-plan layout stretches on. There's a shopper's entry to the double lock-up garage at the rear (accessed via Minstrel Lane), wonderful indoor-outdoor flow to the gardens via sliding doors on either side, and the kitchen is superb: Essastone benchtops, full-height soft-close cabinetry and Westinghouse appliances.

Outside, a coastal mural by renowned artist Samantha Prentice spans the length of the landscaped surrounds, and you can rinse off under the outdoor shower after a day at the beach before settling into a cosy book, alfresco meal, or evening drink as the sun sets on this slice of paradise.

Upstairs, honey-coloured blackbutt floors lead to even more serenity. Two bedrooms each have sliding, mirrored built-in robes, while one enjoys the privilege of private balcony access – as well as the second lounge area nearby – and the glossy bathroom is finely appointed with an oversized rainwater shower, curved glass shower screen and separate WC. Finally, ducted and zoned air-conditioning services the entire property with roof solar panels for energy efficiency.

It's a privilege to live so close to the coast and once you experience all that's on offer in this seaside enclave – you'll never look back.
