An extraordinary embodiment of cutting-edge architectural design, this contemporary home redefines the boundaries of luxury and innovation. A symphony of incredible scale and stunning modernity, the imposing façade of steel and stone introduces a warm and inviting interior, filled with light and the crème-de-la-crème of fixtures and finishes.

The minimalist design skilfully guides the eye upwards to lofty ceilings, full-height windows, and towering doorways that amplify the sense of space. Encircling double glazing invites natural light and leafy vistas in, which are artfully reflected through an organic blend of timber and stone surfaces, highlighted by striking custom lighting.

The sprawling layout is as clever as the architecture, nurturing daily living, home-based work and study, and vibrant entertaining below the same roof. European Oak parquetry paves the way from an elegant formal sitting room to an open plan domain, passing a 6.2m-high light void with a feature staircase along its way.

The immense space of the open plan domain indulges everyday relaxation and family meals beside a low-line gas fireplace, while effortlessly transforming to a vibrant entertainer when guests arrive. Encased in climate controlled double glazing, an 800+ bottle wine room flaunts a connoisseur’s collection, ready for revelries at an instant.

The kitchen and butler’s pantry delights the home chef with a dual array of Gaggenau appliances and an integrated Liebherr fridge and freezer, while wrapped in Pietra Naudica natural stone among endless woodgrain cabinetry. Outside, a motorised louvred roof shelters year-round alfresco dining, while a barbecue kitchenette and a heated lap pool enhance alfresco celebrations under a shower of northern sun.

Upstairs, a vast retreat is central to the family accommodation, equipped with a drinks station and home cinema wiring for modern entertainment. The kids’ wing pairs three lavishly sized bedrooms with three marble ensuites, while a central study offers private space for homework. The master bedroom is pampered with incredible space for quiet sanctuary, enriched by a custom dressing room and a luxe ensuite with a soaker tub.

Downstairs, a private guest bedroom provides a walk-in robe and ensuite, finishing the floorplan with a fully fitted home office, a guest powder room, a large laundry, and a four-car garage plus additional parking behind motorised gates. Luxuriating in all the comforts and security of contemporary living, this home is a statement of modern excellence.
