A contemporary landmark on the prestigious waterfront, this extraordinary residence with 971 sqm approx. of indoor/outdoor living, makes an impression not only for its front-row views across the bay, St Kilda Marina and the city skyline, but for the way it draws light and focus inward. Spanning across four lift-connected levels with two frontages, the design draws natural light deep through each level, directing the outlook inward and upward, creating a rare sense of calm and introspection within its surrounds.
Designed by the renowned Robert Simeoni Architects, it sets a remarkable standard of Brutalist-inspired architecture, amenity and world-class liveability amongst Melbourne's most significant homes. Exotic stone finishes and intricate marble detailing elevate the interiors to an elite level, with zoned hydronic floor heating throughout, a central lift and a gallery-like foyer entrance that is anything but expected. Jade marble floors, integrated lighting, concrete walls, and door frames unite an industrial and robust aesthetic with the warmth of oak, discreetly hiding two generous ground floor bedrooms with robes and a sublime bathroom within the panelling. A third ensuite-bedroom sits on the main level, whilst the top floor is dedicated solely to an indulgent main suite, comprising a bay-facing living room that opens to a substantial sunset-view terrace, a fitted dressing room and bespoke en-suite bathroom with exquisite marble surfaces, a large twin shower and a separate WC.
Expansive living and entertaining areas cater to family and grand-scale entertaining, with floor-to-ceiling windows framing each aspect, whether city or bay, and extra-broad oak floors create a feeling of grandeur throughout the open-plan spaces. A chef's kitchen featuring state-of-the-art V Zug appliances, integrated refrigeration, and a functional butler's pantry with a second appliance suite is centrally located, connecting the brilliant living areas to a northwestern terrace to capture city lights by an in-built BBQ. Furthering the entertainment and extraordinary architectural language, the lower-ground wellness domain hosts a gym/yoga studio and spectacular open-air saltwater, self-cleaning, heated pool and spa with glass mosaic tiles. Appointed to the highest standard, with state-of-the-art technology, security and home automation, a poolside bathroom and laundry room, five al-fresco zones, a home office, a wealth of storage, solar power system, automated high-set windows, water filtration and treatment system, zoned heating/cooling, motorized blinds and window furnishings, and a four-car remote-controlled garage.
