Welcome to exquisite Bayside living in the modern and classically grand penthouse of the boutique FiftyTwo Black Residences in Brighton. This is a home with form that indulges, reflects and redefines luxury living and pays homage to the rich architectural heritage of the Art Deco era.
A unique, highly considered design resonates and celebrates this prestigious seaside enclave. Encapsulating the entire top floor, the residence is located within the heart of Brighton's famed Church Street fashion and restaurant precinct, and boasts an easy, short walk to picturesque Brighton Beach or a 25min drive to the Melbourne CBD.
This brand new boutique building showcases a contemporary re-imagining of classical grandeur, comprising of only one true full floor penthouse and four half floor residences over three levels.
Hand-crafted, bespoke artisan finishes featuring onyx, marble, limestone and hardwood timber materials are encased in northern light, promising absolute privacy from its elevated vantage point.
The residences are an outstanding design by an elite collaboration between world-renowned architects, Nicholas Day and New York's Gregory Tuck and genre-defying interior design by Meg Sharpe, with landscaping by Jack Merlo.
The Penthouse is framed by a spectacular 116sqm north-facing wrap-around terrace with breathtaking city skyline vistas and encompasses 489sqm, three bedroom, three bathrooms plus powder room, private lift, private entrance foyer, multiple living zones, expansive study and separate library or media room, all suffused with considered hand crafted detail, opulence, and understated prestige. The residence also includes four private side-by-side carparks within dual lock up garages and an additional 20m storage room.
A grand entrance foyer opens to contiguous living and dining areas with spectacular city views and seductive curves, creating a masterpiece of respite and entertainment. Hand selected herringbone hardwood flooring with an abundance of crafted panelled cabinetry is matched by the warmth of an open ornamental fireplace, luxurious marble finishes, and stunning chandeliers set against 3.3m-high dual tray ceilings. A spectacular culinary kitchen with a 4m marble island bench, suite of premium Wolf and Gaggenau cooking appliances and Sub Zero refrigeration, is complimented by a fully equipped butler's pantry.
A large, premium library room with double height doors, floor to ceiling wood panelling, abundant built-in cabinetry, and picturesque, floor to ceiling windows provides an inviting professional home-office, feature media room or home gym.
All bedrooms are spacious with ensuite bathrooms which are exquisitely detailed with floor-to-ceiling inset marble, individually laid mosaic floors crafted by artisan stone masons, and elegant Perrin and Rowe tapware.
The grand, light-filled, master bedroom suite boasts full height sliding French-doors opening onto a private terrace with city views. It is complemented by a vast custom walk-in robe with a central dressing table, feature lighting, and bespoke cabinetry installed around the full perimeter. A decadent ensuited bathroom wrapped in Calcutta marble and French antique-mirrored panels surrounds customised bathing and dual showering zones.
