Set on an expansive 1,780m² landholding and wrapped in private, rainforest-style gardens, this recently refurbished Bali-inspired pavilion home delivers resort living less than 1.5km from the city.Three beautifully crafted pavilions are linked by rich Merbau decking and lush tropical landscaping. The main pavilion opens into a sweeping living and dining space under soaring pitched ceilings, with a stone-bench kitchen and stainless steel appliances at its heart. Hand-crafted timber-framed French doors fold back to extensive outdoor entertaining areas, blurring the line between inside and out.The second pavilion houses three bedrooms with built-in robes and a large bathroom, with floor-to-ceiling louvres drawing in natural light and framing the gardens from every room. The third pavilion is the master retreat, soaring ceilings, full-height louvres and a ensuite with a striking sunken bath and an outdoor shower.New to the home is a purpose-built recovery deck overlooking the pool and gardens, complete with sauna and ice bath, a private wellness retreat few Darwin homes can match. Throughout, the home has been retiled in the living and guest pavilions, fitted with new carpet in the bedrooms, repainted inside and out.The pool and surrounding gardens remain the showpiece, while split-system air-conditioning throughout and a 6.6kW solar system keep the home comfortable and the power bills modest.The property is zoned LMR (Low-Medium Density Residential) under the NT Planning Scheme 2020. A 1,780m² holding with this zoning, this close to the CBD, is a genuinely scarce asset, offering developers and land-bankers long-term upside well beyond the home itself. Buyers should make their own enquiries regarding development potential.Property Particulars:- 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms across three linked pavilions- Recent renovations with new recovery deck with sauna and ice bath, overlooking pool and gardens- Stone-bench kitchen with stainless steel appliances- In-ground swimming pool- Split-system air-conditioning throughout; 6.6kW solar system- Lockable double garage plus storeroom- Private, established rainforest-style gardens backing onto the Darwin Botantic- Land size: 1,780m² LMR-zoned landFor more information or to view the property please call Seth Chin on 0411178888 or Victor Harris on 0412154121","YearBuilt":null,"LandArea":null,"Price":{"Currency":"AUD","Amount":2800000.00,"Display":"$2,800,000"},"Bedrooms":"4","Bathrooms":"2","Parking":"4","Features":[{"Name":"Bedrooms","Value":"4"},{"Name":"Bathrooms","Value":"2"},{"Name":"Carports","Value":"4"},{"Name":"Area","Value":"1,790 m²"},{"Name":"House Size","Value":"1,858.06 m²"}],"Inspections":[],"Auctions":[],"TimeZone":"AUS Eastern Standard Time","Latitude":-12.45048841,"Longitude":130.83702723,"Agent":{"Name":"Seth Chin","CanonicalUrl":"https://realsearch.com.au/agent/seth-chin"},"Agency":{"Name":"Chin Property Group - CULLEN BAY","CanonicalUrl":"https://realsearch.com.au/agency/chin-property-group-cullen-bay"},"CreatedAt":"2026-10-21T09:16:45.1375994","UpdatedAt":"2026-10-26T07:33:30.6350869"}
