Masterfully designed to showcase the look of a luxury lodge and the feel of a tropical resort, the expansive residence is an architectural showpiece and provides options for large scale family and multigenerational living.

While the home currently has no CCC, the scale and prime location present endless opportunity now and in the future, to add value, land bank or develop.

The home

Two levels, made for living well.

Swimming pool with loungers on a timber deck, framed by palms and hedges

Pool and loungers

Timelessly elegant interiors feature rich timber detailing and impressive proportions, with walls of glass capturing light and sun and bringing the outside in. The enormous floorplan sprawls out over one level, with the atrium foyer featuring Schist, setting the scene for the pure design drama to follow.

Kitchen sink beneath a glass gable, looking out to the deck and living room

Kitchen view to the deck

The formal lounge and dining spaces flow into the enormous living and entertainer’s kitchen, where chefs can connect with guests over the huge, curved island and enjoy the large scullery, two dishwashers and high-quality appliances. Walls of bifolds open up to create a seamless connection with the decks, gardens and swimming pool complex outside.

Bedroom with a window seat and glass doors to the deck
