Held across two titles and 2,235sqm on Balmoral Lane, this property pairs a gracious renovated residence with the added reach of a separate site, giving rise to luxury, land, leverage and long-view opportunity.
With magnificent sentinel phoenix palms marking its entrance, the home’s resort-style stature is softened by a level of soul that brings immediate atmosphere to the arrival at number 23.
Built in 1959 and elevated well beyond that first era, the home unfolds across two levels, pairing herringbone floors and feature wallpapers with a quality-driven finish and a floor plan tuned for family life, guest flexibility and crowd-ready entertaining.
From its premium position, the property secures shelter from the easterly and a cinematic sweep of views across McCormacks Bay, the city and the Southern Alps, with spectacular sunsets closing the day in unforgettable fashion.
Day-long sunshine and uninterrupted sightlines hold the upper hand throughout, with flawless outdoor flow ensuring every part of the property earns its place. Positioned to overlook the pool, the kitchen performs at a high level, combining extensive storage with a full suite of modern appointments, while the adjoining dining room and lounge give the floor plan greater range before both open directly to the outdoors.
Entertaining comes naturally, whether hosting a Christmas crowd on the expansive deck, settling poolside in the height of summer, catching the sea breeze from the balcony, or stepping into the spa at sunset with city lights below.
Accommodation begins upstairs, where three double bedrooms and two bathrooms include a master suite with balcony access, a walk-in wardrobe and en-suite.
Downstairs brings a different layer of capability, with a separate lounge, home office, guest bedroom and adjoining bathroom, giving the lower level clear independence for visitors, work and extended stays. A concealed pivot door to the laundry, a temperature-perfect wine cave below, internal-access garaging, and ambient heating solutions reflect the depth of detail behind the scenes.
Alongside it, 23A changes the proposition completely. Private, sheltered and elevated, this 1,015sqm site delivers the rare advantage of a second title, whether held to preserve privacy, opened out as a significant garden extension or built on with one of the hillside’s finest outlooks already in place.
McCormacks Bay Reserve and the Coastal Pathway to Sumner Beach keep the bay-side lifestyle close to hand, while local shops, in-zone Redcliffs Primary School and an easy 15-minute drive into town keep the address equally practical and picturesque.
Two titles sharpen the opportunity, while sun, scenery and a poolside setting raise the standard, placing 23 and 23A Balmoral Lane in a league of its own for both latitude and lifestyle.
