Positioned opposite the foreshore reserve at Gatakers Bay, 10 Esplanade pairs an enviable coastal address with the warmth and individuality of an established home. Occupying a generous 718m2 allotment with a desirable north-facing aspect, the residence is framed by established greenery, with views through the reserve towards the water and cooling sea breezes reinforcing its connection to the coastline.
Inside, the home has evolved into a light and comfortable coastal residence while retaining the details that give it its personality. Rich K'gari satinay timber floors provide a striking contrast against crisp white interiors, while traditional wall detailing, generous proportions and an abundance of windows reference the home's original character. These elements sit comfortably alongside more contemporary updates, resulting in a home that feels established without being dated and relaxed without losing its individuality.
Perhaps most valuable is the versatility offered by the floorplan. Three bedrooms include two generous master-style retreats, while a secondary living area and separate kitchenette create a more independent section of the home. Whether used for extended family, older children, visiting guests or simply as additional everyday living space, the arrangement provides a level of versatility not immediately apparent from the home's understated exterior.
