Drewhouse (The Pods), in the beautiful Sunrise at 1770 estate. | House in Agnes Water
2 Bedroom House in Agnes Water
Drewhouse, known to us as The Pods, is a uniquely designed beach house that offers architectural luxury while remaining deeply connected to nature.
Set on an acre of pristine native forest within the Sunrise at 1770 Estate near Agnes Water, The Pods were designed by Simon Laws of Anthill Constructions as a place to live lightly within the landscape.
The house has been widely recognised for its design, featuring on Dreambuild (ABC), in Vogue Living, and more recently on Channel 10’s The Living Room.
Sunrise at 1770 is an award-winning, ecologically sensitive, gated estate offering exceptional shared amenities for residents and guests. These include two beautifully sited horizon pools overlooking the ocean, four tennis courts, poolside barbecue kitchens and a children’s playground. The property runs entirely on rainwater, exports solar power back to the grid, and is supported by Starlink for reliable, high-quality internet access. Due to Sunrise’s regulations, pets cannot be accommodated. However, guests who enjoy wildlife will be delighted by the abundance of native animals throughout the estate.
Mature bloodwoods and cabbage palms create a natural coastal garden setting close to the ocean and the renowned Springs Beach near Agnes Water, the most northerly surf break on Australia’s east coast. Guests can relax by the pools, including a shallow children’s pool, surf, fish, or walk the four kilometres of headlands and beaches that define this extraordinary coastline.
The Pods are arranged as a series of separate living, sleeping and bathing pavilions connected by a raised, covered timber walkway that enhances privacy and quiet. Please note that moving between bedrooms, bathroom and kitchen involves walking along this walkway. The bushland setting and mild subtropical climate support abundant birdlife and wildlife, including black cockatoos, pretty-faced wallabies and grey kangaroos. Rainwater tanks, solar hot water and electricity contribute to the home’s low-impact, passive design.
The house provides an ideal base from which to explore Sunrise’s private beach access and secluded coastline. Guests may drive along the estate’s internal roads to one of the beach clubs, where you’ll find a stunning suspended 25-metre pool, children’s pool, complimentary tennis and volleyball courts, modern amenities and luxury barbecue huts with solid dining settings and magnificent ocean views.
Life at The Pods centres around the main living pavilion with its expansive covered timber deck and circular marble dining table. Wide sliding doors allow seamless movement from the modern kitchen, equipped with a five-burner gas stove, fridge with ice maker, espresso coffee machine, water cooler and quiet dishwasher, to shaded outdoor dining on the deck. Opposite the kitchen is a dedicated entertainment space with generous built-in sofas, ideal for relaxing, watching TV or streamed movies, listening to music, playing board games or enjoying an afternoon nap. The sofas can also accommodate additional guests if required.
The bathroom pavilion is finished in Italian travertine, with a full-height wall that opens to the forest beyond. Guests can soak in the deep bath while listening to birdsong or shower either inside or outdoors via the art glass door that opens in both directions. Water is sourced from rainwater tanks and at times may show a slight natural colour from leaf tannins. This is a normal characteristic of fresh rainwater.
The two bedroom pavilions each contain three single beds, with the option to convert two singles into a king-sized bed. Linen is provided for both configurations. Polished native timber floors and full-width, insect-screened sliding windows allow entire walls to open to the surrounding forest. All bed linen, bath towels, doonas and throws are provided. Guests need only bring beach or pool towels.
