Astonishing Coastal Luxury!
Sweeping panoramic ocean views from both the ground and first floors, a commanding house position on a large and private 889sqm corner block, with some 525sqm of expansive living area and stunning attention-to-detail that is set to leave you in absolute awe – it’s all here and more within the walls of this near-new 5 bedroom 4 bathroom two-storey residence that was fully renovated in 2016, completely transformed, cleverly extended and leaves nothing for you to do now, other than to simply bring your belongings, move on in and enjoy the unrivalled quality, modern character and sensual sea breezes it so impressively offers.
The home has two separate upstairs areas – one of them presently is a huge games room (versatile enough to be a teenager’s retreat or a sixth bedroom with “granny-flat” potential), as well as a storeroom with access into the roof space, a bar with stone bench tops and a separate “fourth” bathroom comprising of a shower, toilet and vanity for good measure. Another custom staircase leads you to the other part of the upper floor that plays host to a spacious study with its own slice of the Indian Ocean vista from a large tiled wraparound balcony, a second or “guest” bedroom suite with its own retreat area and an enormous king-size master ensemble where a ceiling fan and mesmerising sea views from bed meet a commodious ensuite bathroom – walk-in wardrobe, toilet, unique mirrors, heat lamps, a shower, a classic claw-foot bathtub, separate “his and hers” twin stone vanities and all.
A spectacular custom kitchen is the headline act of the lower level, forming part of a breezy open-plan family and dining area and boasting its own butler’s pantry, sparkling Caesar Stone bench tops, a bar-cabinet recess, a hidden appliance nook-come-microwave recess, exquisite bevelled-glass display cabinets, seemingly-endless built-in Hamptons-style storage space, high-end hand-painted cabinetry, Blum drawers and soft-closing cupboard systems, heaps of power points, a Smeg free-standing six-burner 900mm-wide gas-cooktop and oven, an integrated Smeg rang-hood/exhaust system, an integrated Miele dishwasher, double sinks, clear views of the glistening heated below-ground swimming pool down the side and so much more. From here, the rear lounge room is easily accessible and, like the main living zone, seamlessly extends outdoors to the poolside verandah and a separate gazebo deck with a ceiling fan.
Also downstairs are the minor sleeping quarters (consisting of the remaining three bedrooms and a charming spare bathroom), an impeccably-appointed laundry with poolside access and a huge tiled alfresco-style cabana that has been fully enclosed for internal entertaining and enjoys the luxury of an under-stair storeroom, a staircase leading up to the games room, stone bench tops, plenty more built-in storage space, a mains-gas Beef Eater built-in barbecue, a sink, room for a drinks fridge and an extra-large commercial-grade Ziegler and Brown Grand Turbo range hood. Completing this exemplary package is a three-car lock-up garage – preceding by secure driveway parking space behind the safety of an automatic entry gate.
Only moments separate your front doorstep from the Iluka Coastal Path, the picturesque Iluka Foreshore Park, Iluka Beach and the future Iluka Plaza shopping complex, whilst the popular Burns Beach Cafe & Restaurant is also within a very close proximity, as are excellent shopping, food and entertainment options at Currambine Central marketplace, top public and private schools, outstanding sporting and community facilities, sprawling local parklands, world-class golf at Joondalup Resort, public transport and freeway convenience. A dream home in a dream location with everything you have ever dreamt of and more – this truly is utopia on the coast!
