Bringing Hollywood to Sydney, this captivating circa 1936 Mission resort style manor was designed by noteworthy architect A. E. Stafford and has been sensitively modernised for a life of absolute comfort. Move straight in and enjoy the best of beachside family living or explore the DA Approved plans in place by celebrated architect Luigi Rosselli.
Elegantly elevated upon 1672qm of Peter Fudge designed landscaped gardens, the home is perfectly orientated to take in the splendour of Sydney Harbour from almost every room. Tucked away upon a private road hidden from passers-by, arrive home to an impressive reception room underneath a soaring six metre ceiling. Retaining many glamorous hallmarks of its rich architectural history, a series of romantic archways connect living spaces and outline windows and doors. Gazing across the level manicured gardens to the harbour, views stretch from neighbouring Clifton Gardens to Chowder Bay, across to the Eastern Suburbs and beyond.
Cleverly crafted to showcase both formal and informal living spaces, the 456sqm interior footprint extends to a private guest house complete with its own open-plan living area off its deluxe stone kitchen. The home's primary kitchen casts a watchful eye over the surrounding garden wonderland and swimming pool. The ultimate entertainer, sandstone courtyards extend from all living areas with a central courtyard stepping down to the poolside cabana with built-in woodfire pizza oven.
From the grand statement tiled staircase and textured walls that envelop the home in warmth and character, this exquisite residence is an unparalleled masterpiece that is alive with natural light. Offering an abundance of accommodation options in the main house, upstairs bedrooms stem off a gallery inspired hallway outlining the towering void. The master bedroom indulges in postcard views through a pair of Juliet balconies and adjoins both a walk-in robe and opulent ensuite. Bedrooms two and three open to viewing balconies and have access to an updated bathroom with family friendly bathtub. Bedroom five is placed on the living level alongside its own ensuite.
Reminiscent of a European holiday with extraordinary views capturing life on the harbour, immerse yourself within the natural beauty of this secluded beachside enclave perched above Clifton Gardens Reserve, jetty and the Chowder Bay waterfront café culture.
