A Private Freestanding Coastal Home With Mesmerising Views Over Maroubra And A Deep Sunny Garden
A breathtaking 180-degree ocean panorama takes centre stage in this private coastal haven in a tightly held pocket of Maroubra just 800m down to the beachfront. Home of former NSW premier Bob Carr, the 577sqm approx property was purchased in 1979 and transformed by acclaimed architect Howard Tanner in the early 1990s to take full advantage of its incredible vantage point. A commanding setting on the high side of the street affords a superb sense of privacy with free-flowing living spaces opening out to a deep view-swept terrace while a deep park-like garden at the rear is bathed in northerly sunshine. Quality design and a cascading layout with open sightlines to the ocean vista from front to back create a close connection with the landscape beyond while the lush garden offers plentiful room for a pool. Carr held the seat in Maroubra for over 20 years until 2005 when he retired as the state's longest-serving premier and his four-bedroom home is perfectly located between the beachfront and Maroubra Junction's retail precinct.
