Epitomising graceful grandeur, this waterfront residence is a statement of enduring luxury and beauty. Presiding over a 1,000m2* allotment mere moments from Main River, it captivates with a commanding presence in a prestigious enclave. Fusing classic Georgian and Hamptons elegance, towering columns and soaring arched windows frame the timeless façade, before ushering you into a spectacular foyer. Here, a majestic imperial staircase glides between the two levels, resting beneath a 5.5m* ceiling and evoking the romance of a bygone era.

While a masterpiece of flawless style and refined finishes, it is equally defined by its warmth, liveability and effortless charm. Designed to embrace both intimate family moments and grand-scale entertaining, the expansive open-plan kitchen, living and dining area strikes a beautiful balance of comfort and connection. Curl up on the full-length window seat and watch the pool shimmer in the sun, or gather fireside after a meal prepared in the gourmet kitchen - complete with a butler’s pantry, a full suite of Gaggenau appliances and vast Italiano stone island bench.

Alternatively, entertain or unwind alfresco-style on the waterfront terrace or twin sun decks, or take advantage of a boat ramp, boat shed and private 23m* stretch of sandy beachfront.

Six supremely spacious bedrooms also await, complemented by five bathrooms with travertine tiling, Italiano stone vanities, Villeroy & Boch basins, Grohe tapware and heated towel rails. This includes the lavish master suite, complete with a sitting area, dual walk-in robes, and a designer ensuite with a freestanding bath, perfectly positioned to savour mesmerising sunsets. A media room, executive office and study (all with bespoke, built-in joinery) are enticing extras, as is a multipurpose space, ideal to be used as a gym or yoga sanctuary.
