There are some homes that are born to steal the limelight; flawlessly manipulating site, location and orientation in a masterful blend of form and function. Welcome to Latitude 35 degrees South.

An exclusive perch above Adelaide’s only North facing beach, indulges an infinite vista, a visual feast of sapphire sky and azure sea, a horizon transforming from dazzling sunlight to ebony ink, sprinkled with a million glittering lights.

A striking mix of sleek lines and design surprises, the Scott Salisbury crafted penthouse is accessed via swipe card security, a lift sweeping you to the top level in seconds. Upon entry, a reception foyer opens to reveal an interior alight with stunning natural illuminance and fluency of movement. Subtle tones and glossy surfaces bring sophistication to the space, walls of moving glass blur indoor/outdoor borders, and savvy storage scales every wall.

At its centre, a Miele galley kitchen affords effortless meal preparation; stone, stainless steel, induction cooking, integrated dishwasher and espresso station adding luxe. To the southern side, a sitting room/home theatre is positioned; transparent doors slide open to an expansive deck, set into the terrain as a seamless extension of the landscape.

A casual dining space flanks the kitchen to the north, and tucked around the corner, elegant lowered ceilings define a lounging space encased in glass. However, the best seats are no longer in the house. Laze bay side, doze as the sun sets, inhale salty dusk air, and you’ll soon agree.

The western wing of the residence houses two double guest bedrooms, each with beach views and superb built-in robes, as well as a fully-tiled bathroom and separate powder room. The master suite, running across the entire eastern length, is a sumptuous retreat for rejuvenation, private zones for bathing (spa, double ensuite), dressing (vast walk-in-robe), and sleeping, plus balcony access, all impart a Zen quality to the space.

Finally, ducted reverse cycle temperature control, secure undercover parking for four vehicles and a storage cage are additions of convenience.

Kingston Park is a beautiful sheltered bay, just moments south of Glenelg, yet imbued with a sense of stillness and calm, far removed from suburban drone. On either side are stunning beaches, seaside cafes and cliff top trails to explore. This is life as you always imagined, dared to dream of, and had faith existed.

It does; and you’re invited.
