Breathtaking in scale, sophistication, quality and level of finish, this remarkable four-bedroom, five-bathroom residence's unexpected dimensions and landscaped garden and pool surrounds establish a new benchmark in Bayside family luxury.

Dramatic and sophisticated, the interior spaces are defined by a palette of American oak, marble surfaces, and an exceptional connection to the outdoors, maximising sunlight through oversized picture windows and high ceilings. The vast gallery-style reception hall introduces an inviting sitting room and voluminous open-plan living and dining rooms, benefitting from a pebble gas fire, high ceilings with clerestory windows and a premium entertainer's kitchen. A large butler's pantry with a second integrated dishwasher and fridge/freezer, plus a full suite of Asko appliances and an integrated Liebherr fridge/freezer, complement the exquisite marble island bench, orientated to flow outdoors to the landscaped gardens.

A central courtyard delivers brilliant natural light over two levels, whilst stacking glass sliders extend the living and entertaining options to a substantial north-facing undercover terrace offering a sanctuary beside the mains gas BBQ kitchen and self-cleaning, solar-heated pool. On the lower level is a wine cellar/storage room, a spacious home theatre with projector, screen, surround sound and a bar, and a home office with wall-to-wall storage. Lavish family accommodation over two levels comprises four beautiful bedrooms, all with stylish ensuites and built-in robes, including the deluxe main bedroom with a stunning sky-lit ensuite with a freestanding bath and wall-to-wall robes.

Enviably positioned steps to Dendy Village and only minutes from prestige schools, Church Street shopping and dining precinct and the beach, this extraordinary home is comprehensively appointed with CTTV, video intercom, zoned RC/air-conditioning, ducted vacuum, double glazing, large laundry, powder room, automated irrigation system, and a five-car remote garage beyond auto gates with a turn-table for easy manoeuvrability.
