Description
Exclusive. Romantic.
Cutting edge contemporary
design in Cammerays best street.
This exceptional Folly Point property, set on approx. 590 sqm of North facing
waterfront land was built in 1999 by multi award-winning building company Bellevarde.
From conception to construction no corner has been cut. Minimal in its approach
yet warm in ambience, this is an exciting example of the contemporary Sydney
domestic dream and a rare opportunity to invest in a 60 square home of quality
designed by Dr Stephen Lesiuk.
An inspired, unflinching application of the very best materials and fittings
makes for a completely uniform quality statement. It is sleek and sensual
with incredible light levels assisted by the cool floors of imported creamy
white limestone and perfect white sculptured walls. Drive down into a discreet
cul-de-sac series of garages, below street level, park and place your luggage
in the mini-lift. Leave your shoes at the door and feel the cool of the
pristine floors underfoot. Let the soft, opaque light filter stress. Glimpse
Zen-inspired marble roof terracing and harbour waters along the way as
you descend a white corridor to the generous ground floor. Relax. The garden
is designed to take care of itself. Security is total.
Contemporary architecture sets out to create mood, atmosphere and feeling.
But what about the neighbours? With creations by luminary Australian architects
Rick Le Plastrier to the left and Harry Seidler to the right, the sheer
calibre of surrounding architecture defines this as a street of pedigree
enjoyed by those who love style. Set snug into one of the prettiest, deep
waterfrontages in Cammeray, this property offers discretion and spectacular
panoramic water views of Middle Harbour opposing natural reserve of Northbridge
Golf Course. It combines visionary design, masterfully executed with the
natural beauty of one of the most desirable addresses of the lower North
Shore.
This design of this home reflects current Australian lifestyle priorities.
Every element has been carefully considered from the pale Ash timbers and striking
elegance of the black Jetmaster fireplace to the sweep of customised stainless
steel in the well-equipped, open plan kitchen. Even the position of the kitchen,
located at the forefront of the house within view of passing yachts and the
extended jetty below maximises pleasure. A dramatically-lit canopy-style roof
gives the appearance of hovering above the main glass structure while a series
of opening glass walls gives total, front-to-back flexibility to the courtyard/lounge
below. Such dynamic, innovative architecture creates a modern lifestyle by
prioritising light levels, water views, privacy, space and personal style.
The structure has been purpose-built for unabashed year-round entertaining.
The breathtaking, pavilion style main level combines three separate year-round
relaxation/dining areas. The sleek huge balcony glinting with maritime
railing and offering unparalleled, mesmerising views is an open adjunct
to an elegant lounge/dining/food & wine indoors area. This connects
to a completely protected glass-enclosed inner courtyard complete with
stunning freshwater plunge pool and spa, light-filled gymnasium, sauna,
barbeque and ample room for dining, sunning and lounging. The study/home
office with filing room adjacent to the courtyard has been cleverly designed
to convert into the ultimate guest terrace.
Two separate guest bedrooms, with walk-in dressing rooms
and bathroom with spa sit high on an upper level. A luxurious master
bedroom takes up the entire lower level and features a huge galley dressing
room and spectacular bathroom with twin sinks and water views from the
chic-est of baths.
Unlike many others in Middle Harbour, even in exclusive Cammeray Road, this
property is built close to the waters edge to maximise the delights of
harbour side life. The clinking of moored yachts, the pungent freshness
of the tides, the conversation of gulls and a full leisurely wooden boat
deck, complete with charming boat house provide the kind of escapism that
will give you the feeling of being on a permanent holiday. On a practical
note, boat lovers will relish in the utility and complete versatility of
a deepwater pen, 9 feet deep, currently approved for a 40-foot craft.
Despite unique privacy and proximity to natural beauty, this Folly Point position
on Cammeray Road is still, remarkably, only 7 minutes drive from the centre
of Sydney. Via a discreet connection to the Sydney Harbour Bridge, your
first actual stop is the tollway. The very best shopping, private schools
and access to the Harbour Tunnel and Eastern Distributor are conveniently
close. Full communication needs are covered with Cable TV and high-speed
Internet access, plus full security for complete relaxation.
