Luxury Real Estate

By Michael Marquette of Marquette Turner

4 Bedrooms, 3 Bedrooms, 2 Parking

LOCATION

This magnificent property is on an elevated, 1200sm block overlooking a peaceful lagoon, the beach and ocean to the east and there are wonderful mountain views to the mountain range in the west. Its address is one of the most prestigious on the Coffs’ coast. It is a private enclave, yet only 100 metres to the beach and short drive to the business centre of town.

WHAT MAKES IT SPECIAL

When the owners of this spectacular, contemporary Balinese pavilion house and gardens came to build, they decided to create the kind of open, tropical home that the Coffs coast lifestyle and weather would welcome ….. in keeping with the almost year round sun and capturing the soft breezes off the sea.

Well known designer, Steve Abrahams, worked alongside the vendors to make their ideas a reality.

FACTS, FIGURES & FEATURES

The house and gardens open out from a gateway, flanked by Balinese light carvings. Inside is an entertaining and dining pavilion alongside a deep, wet edge plunge pool. Look towards the main house and the frangipanis and tranquillity ponds on either side of the under cover reception pavilion give some idea of what is in store. All pavilions are of oiled hardwood timber. Turn your head and be surprised to see the waves breaking onto the beach in the distance.

Enter the main house. The entrance sitting room or guest reception area with its plantation shutters, rosewood timber windows and tung oiled black butt flooring leads to everything a kitchen should be. Stainless steel benches. A white marble “work island”. Rivulet glass and jarrah cabinets. Everywhere you look you will find quality, including the Ilve and Miele appliances, a true walk-in pantry, plenty of storage and stainless steel ceiling fans throughout all the living rooms.

An interior dining pavilion leads off the kitchen area and this is totally surrounded by wooden shutters – either to darken the room for candle light or to open the room to the natural light, breezes and the views.

To the left of the reception area is a sitting room and television room; just as elegant. On this level is a guest powder room and toilet with hand made flooring of tiles with cut and polished glass flecks in prime colours. Down a couple of steps is the immaculate laundry and a study or office. A further door leads to the larger than usual 2 vehicle security garage.

The house has excellent natural lighting and great air flow throughout, due to the placement of windows and louvre windowing. On this level are a number of no-maintenance Balinese-style courtyards, a drying area, the water purifier, a vegetable and herb garden and the orchard with limes, lemons, figs and other fruits.

Turn right upstairs to the master bedroom “suite” overlooking outdoor living and entertaining terrace and gardens, the pool and views over the ocean and the mountains. Once again, great air flow is assured in the bedroom and its private and separate lounging pavilion, the only walls being hardwood shutters. There is a large en suite and roomy walk-in wardrobe. White, silk embroidered curtains billow and fall with the breeze. Off this bedroom is a private, natural stone tiled courtyard featuring a single, mature frangipani.

Along the passageway are 3 more queen size bedrooms with built-in wardrobes and these share a luxurious full bathroom of jarrah and white ceramic bath, basins and toilet.
