Newly and intuitively renovated to highlight the natural beauty of its waterfront reserve position, this multi-level architecturally designed home has been cleverly built into its environment cascading its way down to tiered landscaped lawns and gardens.
An iconic Bill Lucas designed home built in the 1960s, striking recently completed renovations combine with the original modernist charm to create a warm, welcoming and layered haven of everlasting style. A home for all seasons, northern sun is filtered into the open-plan living expanse through the entertainer's courtyard and a bank of elevated north facing windows. Immersed in a sea of greenery, an abundant use of glass seamlessly transports the lush rainforest setting inward. Holding an unbreakable connection to its postcard setting, a series of balconies within the surrounding canopy extend off all living areas and bedrooms with natural rockery artfully continuing inside.
Reinvented to live your best life, solid textured Italian tumbled limestone flooring complements the uplifting neutral colour palette. Stunning light oak kitchen joinery is topped in a premium composite stone with an innovative layout creating extra storage and a buffet style servery alongside the pendant lit dining space. Integrated with a selection of brand-new appliances, the aspirational kitchen boasts two Miele ovens, a five-burner gas cooktop, dishwasher and French door Fisher & Paykel refrigerator. Step down into the sunken lounge warmed by a wood burning fireplace with connection to a second outdoor dining space complete with skylights and a raised heat strip. Offering families the opportunity to come together or seek solitude, there is a second lower-level living room alongside a wellness space with infrared sauna.
Showcasing a selection of inviting bedrooms softened by new plush Jute/Polyester/Wool blend carpets, the master wing offers a boutique style dressing room outlined by joinery and centred around a stone waterfall edge topped dresser. The master ensuite extends off the sleeping quarters and boasts a double shower and double vanity. All four brand new bathrooms are luxuriously cohesive in their tile and fixture selection and all feature underfloor heating. Perfect for busy families, a beautifully appointed laundry room sits next to a practical storage lined mud room and both rooms open to a drying courtyard and external stairs. Offering much more than initially meets the eye, air-conditioning units are installed throughout along with CCTV security and sleek storage solutions.
Resting on 720.8sqm approx. of land within the canopy that lines Sailors Bay, there is enviable off-street parking for up to four cars within a double carport and wide driveway. Landscaped for usability and to minimise maintenance, a curated planting selection and the addition of a fibreglass outdoor bath adds interest to level lawns and the relaxing fire pit patio. Convenient to Castlecrag Marina, explore waterfront walking trails and the harbour itself by boat, paddleboard or canoe.
