10A Dawson Avenue

Enviably positioned within steps of the sand on Brighton's Golden Mile, this palatially proportioned four-bedroom residence by acclaimed architect Peter Carmichael delivers an exceptional standard of contemporary family living, with every element conceived for grand-scale entertaining and long-term lifestyle excellence. Surrounded by beautifully landscaped gardens and introduced by a commanding façade, the home combines impressive accommodations with expansive living domains, culminating in a sun-soaked north-facing poolside setting and an extensive lower-level recreation zone, all within walking distance of the Bay Trail, Elwood Park and the area's elite schools. High ceilings, oversized glazing and warm finishes of natural timber and stone create an immediate sense of sophistication throughout interiors designed to maximise light, privacy and connection to the surrounding greenery. Formal lounge and dining rooms occupy their own split-level domains, linked by an architectural timber screen, brimming with natural light from the tranquil lightwell garden before continuing into breathtaking casual domains beyond. Sublime stone surfaces define the central entertainer's kitchen and butler's pantry, exquisitely appointed with premium European appliances, including Miele ovens and integrated refrigeration. A sunken living area with a gas fire introduces a more relaxed atmosphere, with bespoke wall coverings adding richness and depth, with full-height glass doors retracting to the landscaped al fresco entertainment zone, complete with an in-built BBQ kitchen and a gas- and solar-heated plunge pool. A magnificent north-facing main bedroom with a luxurious twin ensuite enjoys a private balcony terrace on the upper floor, while a separate children's wing incorporates three additional robe-fitted bedrooms and a central bathroom. A dumbwaiter lift accesses all levels, with further highlights including a custom-finished basement billiards room or home theatre, a dedicated home office, a powder room, laundry with pool access, ducted heating/cooling, indoor and outdoor sound, automatic irrigation, security and CBUS automation, plus a substantial remote-controlled garage with a cellar. Perfectly located with a short walk to the dog park and Elwood Bathers, and only moments from Martin Street and Bay Street shopping precincts, leading schools, transport and only 10km from the CBD, it presents an extraordinary opportunity within one of Bayside's most tightly-held beachfront locales.
