A grand design with grand views
Offering unparalleled coastal living on a private, north-facing 1390sqm site, this premium architecturally designed home offers the ultimate in sea views and location. With two living rooms and an atrium, formal and casual living is well catered for. There are sea views from most rooms, even the butler's pantry has a great view of the dunes - home to the endangered Fairy Tern.
Designed by renowned eco-architect Graeme North this home is perfectly positioned on the large section. There is a sweeping deck with sliders opening from the dining room, lounge and master bedroom. A sheltered alfresco living area off the atrium is a great spot for a G and T after golf or a swim in the afternoon.
This is a 'thermally efficient' home where every inch has been thoughtfully designed. The curves and angles of the variable pitch roof maximise sun exposure for the solar panel which provides hot water, the solid plaster on concrete block exterior and suspended concrete slab have superior insulation properties. With under-floor heating, a wood burner and central vacuum system, living is easy here. The atrium entrance features glass blocks and timber louvres with angled glass and timber rafters in the high ceiling. Fibre is here, making working from home a breeze.
The master bedroom has an ensuite, walk-in wardrobe and dressing room and a mezzanine space below the high macrocarpa ceiling for extra storage. Two more bedrooms off the atrium share the main bathroom, which has a laundry chute down to the basement laundry space.
The internal access double garage has a large walk-in storage room and a separate shed provides extra storage/studio and a workshop with three-phase power plus boat or caravan parking. The landscaped grounds have several garden sheds, vegetable beds and four water tanks.
Cheviot Street is a quiet cul-de-sac just a few minutes from shops, restaurants, boat ramp and Golf Course. Best of all, with a flick of your towel you're at the estuary edge, an easy stroll away.
