Hidden from the world yet positioned in the heart of one of Southport's most tightly held precincts, 185A Ferry Road is a property you simply wouldn't know existed.
Privately tucked away from the street, this remarkable family residence occupies an enormous 1,033m2 allotment within Medium Density Residential zoning, delivering an exceptional combination of privacy, scale, character and future potential, all just moments from TSS, Southport Park and the Broadwater. From the moment you enter, the home reveals itself as something completely unexpected.
Behind its discreet position lies a substantial residence of impressive proportions, where character-filled timber floors and neutral interiors create a warm and inviting atmosphere. Designed to accommodate families through every stage of life, the versatile floor plan incorporates four separate living areas, multiple entertaining spaces and an abundance of rooms capable of adapting to large, growing or multi-generational families.
At the heart of the residence, an expansive open-plan kitchen, living and dining zone flows effortlessly onto generous alfresco entertaining and poolside areas. The kitchen is both practical and beautifully appointed, featuring stone bench tops, quality appliances and extensive storage, while maintaining a seamless connection with the outdoor spaces.
Outside, a striking lap pool complete with cascading stone waterfall forms the centrepiece of a secluded entertaining environment, creating an impressive setting for relaxed family living and entertaining.
The master suite provides another standout feature. Exceptionally generous in scale and complete with its own sitting area and private parents' retreat/lounge, it captures spectacular views across to the Surfers Paradise skyline, creating a genuine sanctuary within the home.
Additional living and games areas provide outstanding versatility, with the ability to accommodate extra bedrooms, private offices, children's retreats or extended family.
Beyond its credentials as an exceptional family residence, the scale and configuration may also appeal to purchasers seeking to combine home and work within one substantial address. With multiple separate zones, dedicated office space and excellent accessibility, there may be potential for a home-based business, consulting space or professional practice, subject to the intended use and relevant council and planning requirements.
Importantly, the property's Medium Density Residential zoning adds another dimension for investors and forward-thinking purchasers considering the longer-term possibilities of such a significant landholding in central Southport.
