Commanding a prominent position directly opposite an expansive recreational park, 9 James Cook Parkway, Shell Cove delivers an exceptional family sanctuary where space, sophistication and lifestyle converge. Framed by manicured native gardens and flowering gums, this substantial five-bedroom double storey residence with double garage offers refined living just moments from the Shell Cove Marina, pristine beaches and coastal walkways.
From the outset, the home's scale and presence are unmistakable, this residence is designed for both elegant entertaining and relaxed everyday living. Across the road, a vibrant community park with soccer posts, mini cricket pitch and basketball court provides an extension of your own front yard - an enviable setting for families seeking space, activity and connection.
Outdoors, the property truly excels. A spectacular concrete saltwater in-ground pool takes centre stage, complete with an in-pool spa running the length of the ledge. With a generous 1.5m shallow end graduating to a dramatic 3m depth, this is a pool designed for both leisure and serious swimmers. The adjoining high-roofed pergola creates an impressive open-air entertaining zone overlooking landscaped gardens - a private oasis tailored for long summer evenings and year-round gatherings.
Inside, the home unfolds with a series of beautifully proportioned living zones. A formal lounge and separate dining room provide timeless elegance, while the expansive open-plan family domain is anchored by a renovated kitchen. Designed with both style and substance, the kitchen features a substantial 40mm stone island with waterfall edge, premium European appliances including Miele dishwasher, German NEFF oven, Franke gas cooktop and a generous walk-in pantry. A charming window seat beside the kitchen invites relaxed mornings with coffee and coastal breezes.
Flexibility defines the ground floor, where a fifth bedroom with built-in robe sits adjacent to a full bathroom - ideal for guests, multigenerational living or a sophisticated home office. A recently renovated laundry adds further practicality with additional shower and toilet facilities and abundant storage, complemented by multiple linen and storage cupboards throughout. Engineered Blackbutt flooring flows throughout the lower level, enhancing warmth and continuity.
Upstairs, the accommodation is equally impressive. Four oversized bedrooms include a magnificent master retreat with spa ensuite, double shower and an expansive walk-in wardrobe. The additional bedrooms all feature generous built-in robes and are serviced by a spacious family bathroom with separate toilet. A large rumpus room provides a dedicated retreat for children or teenagers, ensuring harmonious family living.
Elevated to capture sweeping 360-degree views, the upper level enjoys vistas stretching across the mountains, north to Port Kembla Beach and over the Shell Cove Marina - a daily reminder of this home's exceptional coastal position.
Modern comfort is assured with a fully integrated ducted air conditioning system, offering three-zone climate control and impressive capacity. A 5.8kW solar system with SolarEdge inverter enhances energy efficiency, while NBN connectivity, a security system and integrated Sonos speakers throughout the family room, bathroom and outdoor entertaining area complete the home's premium inclusions.
Positioned moments from the vibrant Marina precinct, waterfront dining, Shellharbour Village, Killalea State Park and some of the South Coast's most beautiful beaches, this is a residence that offers not only substantial scale but an extraordinary coastal lifestyle.
A home of distinction, designed for families who expect space, quality and an address that truly reflects success. Contact Amanda Bonnici 0457 088 911 for further details.
