If you've been waiting for something truly different, this is it. Tucked away among lush tropical gardens on a 1429m² double block on lovely, quiet Macleay Island, this architecturally unique cypress pine home combines striking design, warmth and character with a resort-style backyard you'll never want to leave.
A home with real wow factor
Step inside and look up. Soaring cypress pine cathedral ceilings form a dramatic, faceted roofline, and skylight windows fill the living space with natural light. Leadlight windows add a touch of artistry. Tiled floors keep things cool underfoot, and a split system air conditioner and fans keep you comfortable all year round. Solar panels help keep power bills down.
The open-plan living and dining area flows to the kitchen, which has a generous breakfast bar, dark benchtops, an overhead pot rack and garden views from the window above the sink. A handy study nook sits beneath the staircase.
Bedrooms with character
The main bedroom features exposed timber beams, warm cypress pine lining and leadlight windows. Upstairs, the mezzanine bedroom overlooks the living area below. It's a spacious loft with room for multiple beds, making it ideal for family, guests or a creative retreat.
The bathroom is spacious, with a double vanity, a walk-in shower with a fold-down seat and grab rails, and a heat lamp for winter mornings.
Made for outdoor living
Out the back, the all-weather entertainment area is a true highlight. It's covered and fully enclosed with clear blinds, so you can dine, relax or host friends in any weather while looking straight out over the pool. A shaded front deck adds another spot to enjoy your morning coffee among the greenery.
The sparkling freeform salt water pool sits within a private tropical oasis of towering palms, cordylines, bromeliads and established gardens.
Pool house: endless possibilities
A separate pool house with its own kitchenette and bathroom offers fantastic flexibility. It could be guest accommodation, a teenage retreat, a studio, a home office or a games room. The choice is yours.
