24 Maryland Avenue
Carrara 4211

This family entertainer, family compound and inner-city acreage is 1 of only 15 river front homes on Maryland Avenue which plays host to some of the most luxurious homes on the Gold Coast.

The north orientated 4,018m2 allotment benefits from 32.4m/106.3ft of wide river frontage and has been meticulously maintained by the same family since 2001.

The traditional style residence was designed and built by Gold Coast Unique Homes in 2008. It enjoys a secluded setting behind a stately front gate and at the end of a long, tree-lined driveway. Double timber front doors open to a palatial foyer with lofty 5.7m ceilings, a chandelier and imperial staircase, which elevate the sense of grandeur established on arrival by the porte-cochere.

Spacious living and dining zones play out across two floors. A bar services the main living area and a cinema room where a stone-clad electric fireplace creates a cosy setting for movie nights. Four deluxe bedrooms feature walk-in robes and ensuites, with two opening onto a north-facing balcony where sweeping views extend beyond lush greenery to the Main River.

An expansive front lawn invites children and pets to roam within secure grounds, while a pontoon offers easy access to the water. A covered entertaining area, plus a pool house with a kitchen and outdoor Balinese-style bathroom surround the lagoon-style pool, while a tiered rear yard with mature trees and pristine gardens is an unrivalled setting for sophisticated soireés.
