46 Bay Street, Brighton

Sold by Matthew Pillios, Director, Kay & Burton Distinguished by its bold architectural form and refined presence, this striking four-bedroom plus study Brighton residence, crafted by the acclaimed Stonnington Group, is just metres from the coveted Golden Mile foreshore. Designed with timeless minimalist intent and executed with precision craftsmanship, it presents as a tranquil, north-facing sanctuary of indoor outdoor family living, framed by the sublime gardens of Eugene Gilligan. A serene sense of arrival is established via a covered entry and timber front doors revealing a Zen-inspired water garden, pebbled courtyard, and bluestone pathway. Beyond, an oversized entry door introduces gallery-like interiors of exceptional scale and light, enriched by engineered oak floors, bespoke timber joinery, and expanses of floor-to-ceiling glass with premium European door and window systems, creating seamless visual and physical connection to the outdoors. The ground floor unfolds across three refined wings, an elegant entry hall with central staircase; a formal living room with feature flame fireplace set within a stone plinth and a light-filled study overlooking the garden. At the heart of the home, the open-plan living and culinary domain is anchored by a long stone island bench and a superbly appointed kitchen and butler’s pantry. Complete with a full suite of Miele appliances, including two convection/combi ovens, induction cooktop, twin integrated dishwashers, and an integrated fridge/freezer ensuring effortless entertaining. Designed for year-round enjoyment, the bluestone entertaining pavilion features a built-in Electrolux barbecue kitchen and flame heater, flowing to a lush lawn on one side and a north-facing, mosaic-tiled heated swimming pool on the other — all underpinned by a sense of refined resort living. Upstairs, generous proportions continue with plushly carpeted corridors leading to four spacious bedrooms and three bathrooms, including two ensuites. The indulgent main suite, enhanced by a Venetian plaster headboard and silken sheers, enjoys serene privacy with adjustable batten screens and a marble-tiled ensuite with twin vanities and walk-in shower. Additional features include two powder rooms (one poolside), a full laundry, kitchen study nook, zoned heating and cooling, automated blinds, integrated KEF sound system, ducted vacuum, under-stair storage, and comprehensive video security. Set on a substantial corner allotment of approximately 800sqm, the property is securely fenced with a side-street entrance to a double remote garage with internal access, pet/utility room, and additional off-street parking for three vehicles. An enviable blue-chip address, perfectly positioned between the Golden Mile beaches and Bay Street’s boutique village, with Brighton Grammar and Firbank Grammar moments away by foot or bike.
