Held and cherished by its original owners for over forty two years, this extraordinary cedar-clad home opens its doors to the market for the very first time. Elevated on the slopes of Mount Pleasant, this is far more than just a home it is a living work of art, defined by a rich mid-century soul, whimsical design details, and breathtaking vistas stretching across the estuary to the open Pacific Ocean.
From the moment you arrive, the natural warmth of vertical cedar cladding and stone accents sets a captivating tone. Step inside the striking entrance hall, where cedar-shingled walls, vaulted ceilings, and globe pendants introduce a home crafted with genuine passion and character.
The heart of the home is an expansive, sun-drenched living pavilion. Soaring timber-lined ceilings and exposed beams frame wall-to-wall glass, flooding the room with natural light and drawing your eye straight out to the ocean views. On cooler evenings, a modern gas fire creates a cosy sanctuary, while warm weather invites you straight out onto broad timber balconies to breathe in the coastal air.
Seamlessly connected, the dining and kitchen areas are an entertainer's paradise. The custom kitchen pairs warm timber cabinetry with dark granite benchtops, high-end appliances, and a striking teal blue mosaic splashback. An adjoining skylit pantry nook with a built-in beverage station adds a clever touch of luxury, while French doors lead out from the dining room to a private garden deck for al fresco meals surrounded by greenery.
The main HOME offers three peaceful bedrooms. The master suite is a true sanctuary, complete with a dark feature wall, custom timber detailing, and an integrated sunroom and study nook. With stained-glass accents and sliding glass doors opening under a timber pergola, it is the ultimate spot for morning coffee against a backdrop of the Pacific & estuary views.
The bathrooms are nothing short of showstopping. One features an iconic, custom Hundertwasser-inspired mosaic a vibrant symphony of colourful tilework, a totem-style column, a rustic timber vanity, and a stone vessel sink. The second bathroom serves as a spa-like retreat, bathed in overhead light from a generous skylight and featuring deep blue mosaic tiles, a walk-in glass shower, and a deep soaking tub.
