A taste of Bondi Beach could be coming to Cottesloe, with billionaire Andrew Forrest looking at a beachside pool and restaurant similar to Sydney’s famous Icebergs.

Nicola Forrest has revealed details of a call by the Forrest family for ideas to revamp the Indiana tea house site on the Cottesloe beachfront, with the push growing for a new pool and a rebuild of the existing structure.

Mr Forrest took control of the Indiana site in March for an undisclosed sum and immediately announced a community survey and design competition to breathe new life into Perth’s most famous beachfront.

Ms Forrest said the community survey had received more than 100 responses, with the main ideas a beachside pool, amphitheatre, boardwalk and function space.

There was also a call for the Indiana to be demolished and replaced.

The Forrest family company, Minderoo Group, has four architectural firms on a shortlist to incorporate ideas from the community into the final plan.

“We are thrilled the public has responded so enthusiastically to our submissions,” Ms Forrest said.

The Forrest family will unveil the four final designs by the end of this month, with a final decision to be made in the middle of next month.

The lease on the Indiana site runs until 2041. The building is said to be in poor repair.

While often mistaken for a heritage building, the tea house structure was built on top of a concrete surf club storage area in 1996.

The Indiana made national headlines last year after the then operators put locks on the site’s toilets, leaving one of Perth’s premier tourism areas without any public toilets.
