Overview

Palm Trees, Pool & Backyard Oasis | Hillside Position with Sweeping Ocean Views

Palm Trees, Pool & Backyard Oasis Hillside Position with Sweeping Ocean Views Architect Own Home - Hobbs Winning (Circa 1971) Shore | Countdown Absolutely all offers presented by 5pm Wednesday May 27. (Seller reserves the right to sell prior). WILL BE SOLD. Privately positioned on an elevated coastal site, this remarkable residence — constructed circa 1971 — was originally designed and held as the personal home of Colin Nicholas, partner at Hobbs Winning. It presents a rare opportunity to secure a home of genuine architectural provenance in one of City Beach’s most tightly held hillside locations. Spanning three levels, the home reflects the confidence and creativity of its era, while thoughtful recent renovations and modernisations have created a highly functional, contemporary environment — a home that can be comfortably enjoyed immediately. The design fully embraces its elevated position, with sweeping ocean-view balconies extending from the primary living areas and bedrooms, capturing majestic Indian Ocean views and drawing the outlook into almost every internal space. Living zones are well considered, offering both separation and connection. The formal lounge retains its original marble flooring — a subtle but important nod to the home’s architectural heritage — while other areas have been updated to align with modern living. Outdoors, the property reveals a north-east facing pool and alfresco — sun-drenched in winter and protected from prevailing south-westerlies — creating a private, sheltered setting that is effortlessly usable across almost every season. Set on a substantial landholding approaching the traditional “quarter acre”, the residence also offers compelling flexibility for the future. While entirely comfortable to live in as is, the site also presents a rare opportunity for those seeking to redevelop and create a new residence that fully capitalises on the home’s elevated position and extraordinary ocean views. Quietly positioned yet within easy reach of the coastline, parklands and leading schools, this is a location that continues to define long-term value in City Beach.
