4 Fingal Court

A triumph of contemporary design by Denton Corker Marshall, ‘Emery Residence’ is an architectural landmark, winning the 2000 Robin Boyd Award for its bold yet harmonious integration with the landscape. Set within the exclusive, gated National Estate, it commands a breathtaking vantage point where dramatic coastal cliffs meet rolling countryside. The home’s striking sculptural form exhibiting two sleek, orthogonal structures, combines concrete, glass, and stainless steel, softened by warm maple veneer elements that define the kitchen, living, and bedroom zones. The ground floor features two robed bedrooms, a central bathroom, and laundry, with angled windows beginning to reveal the extraordinary ocean vistas. A glass-encased, polished concrete staircase leads to the expansive upper level, where walls of glass frame rolling fairways and endless sea views. The kitchen enjoys uninterrupted coastal panoramas, while the adjoining living area is anchored by a striking suspended steel hearth with a wood fire. Seemingly floating above the coastline, the master suite offers absolute privacy, complete with a walk-through robe and ensuite, where function meets refined simplicity. Separate from the main residence, a spacious studio provides a highly adaptable space ideal as a home office, creative retreat, or easily converted guest accommodation. Featuring built-in cabinetry, workstations, a communal meeting area, kitchenette, and bathroom, it delivers both practicality and privacy, enveloped by tranquil coastal vegetation. Set on 4,129 sqm (approx.) of low-maintenance landscape, the property also offers ducted heating and cooling, a double carport, and immediate access to world-class golfing facilities. For architecture enthusiasts, golf aficionados, or those seeking a sleek, low-maintenance coastal retreat, ‘Emery Residence’ is a masterclass in cutting-edge design, elevated by mesmerizing ocean vistas and absolute serenity.
