36 Plateau Road, Bilgola Plateau NSW 2107

There are few northern beaches estates that can rival this premier position, unmatched privacy and distinguished pedigree. Offered for the first time in over 29 years, it is one of the finest examples of the architectural movement that we now understand as modernism; handcrafted, one stone at a time, the cottage is exquisite as it reveals perfect symmetry of form and function, while the overall impression is one of immense charm and undeniable beauty. This classic sandstone cottage was built when one had the choice of the finest settings on the peninsula; sitting on it basks in a splendid northeast aspect with iconic ocean, beach and district views.

The Arts & Craft movement pioneered the concept of open plan living with organic integration to the surrounding landscape, and this home is a fine example of that tradition. Anchored by a massive stone fireplace, the fluid design of the floor plan and extensive glazing on three sides creates not only a visual connection, but a visceral one too. The rooms feel suspended between indoors and out, while the entirety of the living space is dominated by the spectacular views.

Originally built as a two-bedroom weekender, the cottage has been sympathetically updated and enlarged to include a master ensuite, modern gas kitchen with timber bench tops, elegant family bathroom plus sun drenched terraces and decks.
