This spectacular Ponting/Fitzgerald designed beach house sitting in a prime "one back" location in Omaha South with a shared private direct beach access way, evokes a sense of intrigue from the street. A curved cedar-clad upper level floats over a pleated concrete base. The arrow-slot windows provide privacy but offer no clues to passers-by. It's not until you step through the gated entry that all is revealed in this family friendly haven.
A Master Builders National Gold Award Winner, the house is built around a sunny and private central courtyard with over height glass sliders that open the entire lower living area to the outdoors. This beautifully crafted home delivers exceptional workmanship and innovative design in a timeless way. The lower level is comprised of two wings, one containing the beautifully appointed designer kitchen fitted with Miele appliances, dual Casesarstone island benches and concealed pantry, all adjoining the open plan dining and main living area, perfect for entertaining. The other wing houses a double height second living area/media room and two bunk rooms with a shared bathroom, allowing the children or teenagers to have their own private space. A large laundry, guest powder room and single carport with concealed storage complete this level.
Ascending the Tasmanian oak staircase with its feature timber balustrade you are met with wonderful sea views towards Ti Point and Little Barrier. A central curved mezzanine area with study provides separation between the two bedrooms on this level. At one end is the luxurious master suite with his and hers wardrobes and spacious ensuite. At the other end is the fourth ensuited guest bedroom.
With its soft white palette, French oak floors, shiplap cedar boards that flow in from the outdoors, white tongue and groove paneling and other textured elements, the interior has a refined yet relaxed beachy feel about it. This is a MUST VIEW property.
