6 Bonleigh Avenue, Brighton

Metres from the sand in Brighton’s coveted Golden Mile, this substantial five-bedroom, 4.5-bathroom residence occupies the northern sweep of a peaceful tree-lined avenue, offering extraordinary scale and privacy in one of the suburb’s most exclusive settings. Designed for a life of ease, its timeless proportions culminate in a rooftop retreat with breathtaking views across Port Phillip Bay to the You Yang Ranges and the Melbourne city skyline. Expansive formal and informal living domains are distinguished by their impressive dimensions and natural connection to the gardens and pool. A wood-burning fireplace enhances the formal lounge, adjoining a piano room or dining space beneath a soaring 6.4m high (approx.) ceiling that rises to a mezzanine sitting area with private verdant outlooks. The marble bench kitchen forms the centre of the casual living and dining spaces, flowing to the 12m lap pool with a striking waterfall feature and terraced alfresco areas bordered by established greenery. Accommodations span two levels, including a ground floor guest suite, an executive study, and a first floor main bedroom of exceptional size with a lavish ensuite and walk-in robe. Three bedrooms are served by two further bathrooms, with two leading directly to the bay-facing balcony terrace. Panoramic bay views extend from the upper entertainment terrace, orientated to capture the stunning sunsets as the city lights take charge, forming the perfect backdrop to this exclusive home. Only steps from the beach trail, and moments from Church Street, Bay Street, prestigious schools, the Royal Brighton Yacht Club and direct city transport, it also features basement parking for six cars, large storage rooms, secure gated entry, CCTV, alarm system, and laundry with a first-floor chute.
