SOPHISTICATED spaces, a feeling of grandeur and music playing on an ideally placed surround sound system are enjoyed while breathing in the fresh salt air of the Pacific Ocean rolling in on the golden sands opposite this `dream’ home in exclusive Albatross Avenue, Mermaid Beach.

After almost 7 years the current owners of this prestigious luxury tri-level duplex have decided it is time to downsize so they have put this lovely home on the market to sell.

A statement of pure sophistication and elegance, the residence is purpose-built to make the most of its sought after location and ocean views. The three bedroom plus guest accommodation duplex occupies the entire top floor of the building plus half of the second and bottom levels, being the larger of the two duplexes on the site.

The top level features extensive open plan living and dining areas, an upmarket kitchen with marble-topped island bench, two bedrooms including a master suite with massive floor to ceiling, wall-to-wall wardrobes along with a purpose-built wall of windows to capture the ocean views while you lay in bed plus a luxury en-suite. A third bedroom, en-suite and study are located on level 2.

A major feature which sets this stylish home apart from its counterparts is an ultra-chic sweeping staircase which winds its way down through the three levels of living area to the guest quarters and remote double garage on the ground floor. No need to worry about carrying the shopping up all those stairs either for the home has its very own `dumb waiter’ which will deliver the goods to the top floor in record time. A security system, ducted air conditioning, private courtyard and open fireplace add to the many features on offer. This home will pleasantly surprise on first inspection.
