(Please see our television quality video & 3D tour to get a sense of what living in this house is really like)!

When is a house more than a home? We think an ideal design gives your family a perfect blend of entertaining space, and private, peaceful rooms to reside in. When the architecture frames the ever changing landscape between Magnetic Island, Halifax Bay and The Palm Island group perfectly like fine art, it's more than just a roof over your head. Cutting Edge Property is proud to present a truly unique family residence located on the hillside of Bushland Beach.

If you want to completely take advantage of the beautiful bay-to-island lifestyle that you wake up to by viewing every morning from the master bedroom window, you'll need a big boat. Luckily for you the designers at Vista Homes had your weekends in mind. Not only is there a large, flat space alongside the house that will fit almost any reef boat or caravan… But you will also find a huge 8.6 metre long garage with a high roller door that you can turn into the ultimate man cave or store most recreational vehicles safely inside.

There are three levels to this house. The garage is in the middle and the upstairs level includes the main living, patio, pool, master bedroom and the fifth bedroom. The best way to really understand this incredible piece of architecture is to watch our video or take the 3D tour.

Entertainers will love the exquisite kitchen. As a former geologist, I love the genuine marble benchtop which is so large that it had to be lifted into the house with a crane. It includes pyrite inclusions giving a reflective metallic gold accent. This cold slab of stone is perfect for making chocolate upon and four seats at the breakfast bar make quick and easy meals a breeze. With a kitchen this open, you might worry about how to keep the mess in check while cooking… don't worry. There's a huge butlers pantry with a scullery in which to hide your dirty dishes.

Shiny black accents, wood-look soft-close drawers, and incredible appliances from Europe including Combi-steam oven and induction cooktop make this space a haven for chefs. While preparing entrees, you'll never be far from the action as there is an incredible from the kitchen to the poolside patio via double sliding stacking glass doors.

Because of the view. Because of the breeze. Because Oh My Goodness, This is Living! The patio is where you will want to spend all of your time. Sure, cool sea breezes reach the main living area year-round and the owners say they've never turned on the main living air conditioning… but outdoor lifestyle is what living in North Queensland is all about. With an infinity edge pool and views up and down the coast, you'll have to be cautious as to whom you invite over… they may never leave.

The primary suite has the best views in the house and incredible automatic blinds to keep the sun out for early Sunday morning sleep-ins. Your morning shower however will be the best part of every day because the views from under the rainhead extend for 50 kilometres. This Hollywood-style ensuite is both open and private and is appointed with everything you might expect… stone benchtops. Tiled to the ceiling. And an incredible freestanding tub that lets you wave at your partner in bed from the bath. There's a cheeky sliding door for sneaky skinny dipping in your pool once the kids have gone to bed, and a large walk-in wardrobe.

There are four other bedrooms and you'll find them all to be the size of master bedrooms in most other houses. They all have a unique character… some with views and some with a really cozy quiet privacy. Three of these bedrooms are on the lower floor of the house, along with a large living area that would work excellently as a family media room. They are serviced by two exquisite bathrooms, both with no glass to clean in the shower and one with a deep tub (if you're counting… that's three full bathrooms plus a powder room for guests upstairs, making the house 3.5 baths total).

Downstairs you will also find an enormous patio and heaps of space for the trampoline on the large, flat, well maintained lawn. If you have a combined family, this house gives you ample space to give your parents privacy or to hide an annoying teenager or three.

Yes, the lawns are automatically irrigated. Yes, the windows are high quality with theft deterrent screens all around. The neighbours on this small court are lovely.

The location is sensational! Just a short drive to the bottom of the hill will take you to Coles shopping centre, where you can pick up all of your essentials and beautiful Bushland Beach is just a 3-minute drive away. With a service station and new childcare centre currently under construction, this stunning beach-side home has everything a young family could need right at their doorstep. The Townsville CBD is only a 30 minute drive away.

Be quick! This architectural masterpiece is genuinely one-of-a-kind. Virtual inspections and airport pick-ups for those out of town are available. You will love this home as much as we do. We'll see you here, this century.
