24/30 Esplanade, Brighton

A fine example of luxurious design, this superb, never lived in, Wood Marsh-designed residence affords a serene beach lifestyle with magnificent bay views. A striking-while-understated facade prefaces an intelligent, versatile interior, with a tranquil light court, stylish powder room, and airy office forming a quiet and comprehensive home workspace. A magnificent first floor is served by a stunning kitchen with high-class Gaggenau appliances and extensive soft-close cabinetry. Heavyweight sliding glass makes for streamlined indoor/outdoor entertaining, with relaxing living and dining zones stepping onto a sun-drenched, northwest-facing balcony. Together served by room-width robes, an elegant central bathroom, and chic ensuite with twin basins, a trio of considerable bedrooms span first and second floors, while the home's focal staircase culminates in a simply sublime roof terrace. Sensational outlooks cross the bay to reach the Bellarine Peninsula, accompanied by memorable views of Melbourne's inspiring skyline. With high-grade stone to kitchen and bathrooms, features include ducted heating and cooling, European Oak floors, custom Artoz woollen carpets, under-floor bathroom heating, automated blinds, a Somfy smart system, alarm, multi-car garage, and ground-floor laundry. Placed by glorious Green Point with expanses of sand and water laying beyond, it's a matter of steps from Brighton Beach Station, with Hampton, Were, and Church Street shopping and lifestyle precincts, a selection of illustrious colleges and grammar schools, and Sandbelt golf courses nearby.
