Overview

An Authentic Mid-Century Masterpiece By Henry Pollack

A generational rarity, this mid-century masterpiece has been held by one family since its 1966 completion and is offered to the market for the first time. Designed by architect Henry Pollack, later co-founder of property pioneer Mirvac, the solid home stands as an authentic expression of mid-century design, shaped by sculptural clarity, considered spatial flow and an ingenious radial floorplan that dissolves barriers between rooms, light and landscape. Facing due north with ocean views from the front and rear, the freestanding property features four bedrooms on one level including a private master suite and a choice of formal and informal living zones, opening out to an entertainer's terrace and garden. Arrival is unforgettable with a double-height reception foyer and a floating open-tread staircase that rises through the architectural core. Original mid-century joinery, built-ins and integrated daybeds highlight Pollack's talent for designing homes that feel tailored, resolved and intentional. The downstairs introduces an unexpected layer of scale and versatility, featuring a double lock up garage, wine cellar and rumpus zones, ready to adapt to the needs of a modern family. Comfortable now and compelling for the future, this is a rare opportunity to sensitively reimagine while retaining the architectural integrity and provenance of a defining mid-century original, just moments from the coastline and the pulse of South Coogee's coastal community. • A legacy property, the first time ever offered for sale • Quiet coastal pocket, 300m to South Coogee Public School • Ocean views from the front and rear, northerly sunshine • Over 530sqm with a 16m frontage and two-storey layout • Double-height entry vestibule, DLUG with internal access • Master suite with a dressing room, built-ins, north-facing balcony with water views – a parents' oasis • Walls of glass bring in the northerly light and sea breezes • 2 living zones and a central kitchen open to a large terrace & sun-soaked garden area • 4 bedrooms, all with built-in wardrobes • Versatile lower level, superb scope to reconfigure to suit • Clean lines, original hardwood floors and custom joinery • Highly adaptable layout with scope for creative renovation – opportunity / blank-canvas to renovate to own style • Passive solar design, cross-flow breezes, parking for 4 cars • Just down from child-friendly Golan Park and playground • Equidistant to Coogee Beach and Maroubra's surf culture • Designed with a flat roof, allowing for a potential third level to take advantage of stunning water views (STCA) In Conjunction With Sydney Sotheby's International Realty James Ball - 0410 740 349
