Overview

A Masterpiece of Nature, Light & Timeless Design

A Statement in Design. A Village Sanctuary. One of the Bayside's Most Remarkable Homes. There are homes you admire... and then there are homes that leave an everlasting impression. Perched high above the bay with views stretching across Moreton Bay and Islands, this extraordinary residence is far more than a home, it is a crafted work of art. Designed as the personal residence of a Life Fellow of the Australian Institute of Architects, every element has been carefully considered to create a seamless connection between the privacy of the home and the urban and surrounding natural environment. Wake each morning to cooling bay breezes, the gentle call of migratory seabirds and panoramic views across the water. As the day gives way to evening, retreat to the deck, glass in hand, and watch as the moon casts a shimmering trail of light across the bay, a truly captivating backdrop to everyday life. Walls of floor to ceiling glass maximise views, and natural light and draw the two established Tuckeroo trees into the interior of the house. Crafted with warmth and authenticity, the soaring 3-metre timber ceilings feature recycled timber joists, celebrating the home's unique character and timeless appeal. Cleverly designed to capture the warmth of the winter sun, the home is complemented by intelligent cross-ventilation, ensuring natural airflow and year round comfort through every season. At the heart of the home, a stunning chef's kitchen is adorned with a full height marble splash back, and appointed with premium V-ZUG appliances, including an induction cooktop and combination steam oven creating a space as functional as it is beautiful. The flexible floorplan offers exceptional family living, featuring four generous bedrooms, three beautifully appointed bathrooms and an indulgent master retreat complete with its own private lounge and home office, a sanctuary designed for both relaxation and productivity. Outside, landscaped gardens create a private sanctuary, surrounding the sparkling lap pool and bringing a sense of tranquillity and seclusion. Here, nature takes centre stage, creating an oasis to relax, entertain and enjoy the Bayside lifestyle. A generous four-car basement garage offers excellent capacity for vehicles, watercraft and storage, with provision for a private lift connecting directly to the first floor, a considered addition designed with the home's future needs and enduring liveability in mind. Perfectly positioned within an easy stroll of the Esplanade, waterfront walking trails, train station, Manly Harbour, boutique cafés, restaurants and the renowned weekend Farmers Markets, this prestigious address also offers effortless access to the Gateway Motorway, placing both the Gold and Sunshine Coasts within easy reach while Brisbane CBD is approximately just 12 kilometres away. Homes of this Calibre are exceptionally rare.
