13 Banks Street

The masterful redesign of this family home by luxury Sydney interior designer Megan Brown of Penman Brown has seen it thoughtfully transformed for openness and connection to its coastal environment whilst perfectly balancing sophistication and functionality. A cooking, living and dining pavilion with 3.5m high skillion roof is complemented by quieter breakaway spaces, with the home extending into a private alfresco oasis by Secret Gardens. Featured in Australian House & Garden Magazine for its unique transformation, the home's beautifully curated interiors offer moments of texture in beautiful Zellige tiles and wall panelling, while a striking Faustina quartzite island set beneath Articolo pendants elevates the living domain. Connection to the sea is encouraged at every chance, with the home capturing views up the coastline to Ben Buckler and taking in a beautiful spectacle of passing whales. Mere moments from the coastal boardwalk, ocean pools and the Coogee and Maroubra beach hubs, enjoy an invigorating family lifestyle on one of Lurline Bay's most prized streets. - Chef's kitchen with Neff appliances plus a Butler's pantry - Living with Sonos sound and linear Heat & Glo gas fireplace - A library and media room offer inviting break-out spaces - Lush, layered gardens contain a large heated pool and spa - Broad Blackbutt entertainer's deck plus sea-facing terraces - Parent's retreat includes walk-in robe, ensuite and lounge - Home office/guest suite with views and private street entry - A canopy of frangipanis greet on arrival, parking for 3 cars - Full home security includes an alarm, video entry and CCTV - 13kw solar system, A/C, mood lighting, masses of storage
