18 Maryland Avenue
Carrara 4211

A striking statement of British Colonial elegance on Main River, this architectural masterpiece delivers exceptional scale and enduring prestige. Positioned on a private north-facing 4,032m²* estate with 31m* of water frontage, a gated Magnolia-lined driveway leads to a grand double-storey residence spanning an impressive 918m²* floorplan. Opening to an opulent foyer with a soaring 19ft* ceiling, chandelier and sweeping butterfly staircase, it's an extraordinary family sanctuary.

Multiple luxe living and dining zones enhance the experience, including a deluxe entertaining lounge with wet bar, and a sprawling open-plan lounge and dining domain, where a gas fireplace adds cosy charm. And, to further ensure hosting guests is effortless, enjoy a chef's kitchen with butler's pantry and premium new appliances, a temperature-controlled wine cellar and a layout that celebrates a seamless indoor-outdoor connection.

Seven sumptuous bedrooms also feature, complemented by fully renovated bathrooms. This includes the skyline-view master suite with a divine dressing room and ensuite plus a fully self-contained and renovated two-bedroom pavilion for guests or extended family.

Outdoors, the estate transforms into a resort-style haven tailored for recreation, revelry or relaxation. A full-length alfresco terrace with a new outdoor kitchen is the perfect place to host lively celebrations or enjoy an evening under the stars by the rebuilt firepit. Plus, embrace an endless summer in the supersized pool, sun yourself on the new composite decking or take advantage of the boat ramp and revitalised pontoon for weekends filled with water-skiing or cruising on jet-skis.

There is even a natural grass and stone amphitheatre embedded into the landscape to watch the fun unfold, or alternatively, picnic riverside beneath a magnificent poinciana tree. Add to this a triple garage with gym, 10kW and a second 5kw solar power system, upgraded Control4 smart home automation and more and this is a residence of distinction where luxury, innovation and functionality converge.
