GRAND EUROPEAN MANOR | BREATHTAKING INDIAN OCEAN VIEWS | BORDERING "PRIVATE" PARKLANDS

Calling all families! This is a big home but it is certainly not an ordinary one! Extremely high quality bespoke period features are an indulgence on your senses and awaken your mind to exciting possibilities of life here.

On a huge ocean view site backing on to acres of council maintained parkland with no street frontage and servicing only the homes whose rear boundaries encircle it, this is rare earth! This was the highest property on the hill and the very first property to sell in the original land release and the price record holder at the time.

Grand, ostentatious, and determined that you will not pass by without noticing her this amazing queen of the early 80’s wears her European influence with pride. Referencing her historic and classical architectural forebears, this home has timeless design merit. Already enriched by the developing patina of time, she promises to eternally age gracefully and remain relevant.

At first glance, the five bed plus study home nestled in parkland promises a sensible and functional family home, however scratch behind this more traditional exterior and you will discover an extraverted party palace primed for your dinner parties and soirees.

The formal lounge is sumptuous and indulgent… completely lined from floor to ceiling in navy blue suede. An interconnecting cocktail bar between this room and the office is both adult and alluring. Office walls too are lined in floor to ceiling leather… this time in caramel hues… and were installed concurrently with similar work at the Sheraton Hotel. The early 80’s kitchen is bold yet sophisticated, contrasting alluring blue tones with marine stainless. It was continuously pursued by Belle Magazine at the time (who were denied access). With the addition of brand new Smeg stainless steel appliances including two oversized ovens and all new Caesar stone bench tops and breakfast bar, is as current today as the day it was built. The kitchen floors and entrance hall have been re-fitted recently with hard wood parquetry flooring. Interior design by Graham Wright. Built in furniture, lighting fixtures and fittings throughout are the impossibly unattainable designs of artisan Stelio Cotterle of Metal Décor, whose clientele were the who’s who of the 1980’s tycoon world. These pieces are timeless works of art in their own right.

The position of the home was chosen by the current owners because of its convenient location mid way between St Mary’s and Hale School. Tireless lobbying resulted in the uber-convenience of having the school buses stop at the front door.

A must see one of a kind home buying opportunity.

Life is good here…Welcome to City Beach..
