When a home has the ability to literally take your breath away, you know you’re on to something truly unique.
Entry to this 1610 sqm double block cliff top residence is through one of two automatic gates that connect the U shaped driveway. Cruising past landscaped gardens, musical water features and the impressive four car garage, you’ll reach a stately drive through portico reminiscent of a first-class luxury hotel arrival.
Inside, polished marble floors reflect light from the eight tier Gatsby esque chandelier that hangs from above. A fluid circular theme is evident in the curve of the commanding staircase, the oval recess in the ceiling, and the dome glass of the elevator that spans the three levels of the home.
To the west of the foyer lies a home office fit for the high end executive, plus a guest suite, garage access, a laundry and computer nook.
To the east of the foyer a formal sunken sitting room is complete with a gas fireplace, views of the park opposite the entrance, and an adjoining formal dining space.
Located centrally on the ground floor and taking in sweeping views of the pool and river beyond, the kitchen is clearly the hub of the home. It opens up to the every day dining space, living area and bar, all of which feature Cosmic Black granite benchtops, unique mosaic tiles and under floor heating.
An impressive tiered theatre room to the right of the kitchen features 12 reclining chairs, a large screen and blackout curtains for the ultimate movie experience.
Step outside and take in magnificent views of the city and the expanse of river in between.
Seamless glass fencing opens up to a large pool and spa complete with water features, while an alfresco area fit with a built in pizza oven and barbecue sits sheltered and off to the side. An outdoor toilet and shower adds to the resort like atmosphere.
The fully carpeted upper level of this residence is home to six bedrooms.
At the top of the stairs lies a lounge and large terrace overlooking the river, and a hidden kitchenette off to the side.
With direct access to the terrace, a deluxe sitting and dressing room, a raised sleeping area, and motorised curtains operated via the bedside touch screen, there is a distinct penthouse feel to the main suite. The luxurious open ensuite features floor to ceiling marble, his and hers vanities, a deep central spa bath, a separate shower and toilet, and heated towel racks.
This property is fully smart wired via a Crestron touch screen that operates motorised curtains in the kitchen and living areas, front security gates and all lighting. A Sonos music system installed on all levels ensures entertaining is an absolute breeze. On the basement level there is also a wood panelled cellar with high table and chairs, and a home gym.
