Bayside Luxury with Sophisticated Modern Appeal. Perfectly positioned just moments from The Strand and the sparkling shores of Port Phillip Bay, this exceptional private residence delivers a refined blend of contemporary luxury, versatility, and effortless seaside living in one of the area's most tightly held lifestyle pockets. Designed across two expansive levels, the home reveals a series of beautifully appointed spaces that offer remarkable flexibility for modern family life. With six principal rooms, the layout can be tailored to suit a range of lifestyles, whether as four bedrooms with multiple living zones, dedicated work-from-home spaces, or private retreat areas for growing families. The ground floor is a showcase of light-filled elegance, where generous open-plan living and dining areas connect seamlessly to a stunning north-facing internal courtyard, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. Large windows flood the interiors with natural light, while the designer kitchen forms the centrepiece of the home, featuring a stone island bench, breakfast bar, butler's pantry, and premium Bosch appliances, perfectly crafted for both everyday living and entertaining. A luxurious ground-floor main suite offers a peaceful private sanctuary, complete with its own north-facing courtyard, custom cabinetry, built-in robes, and a beautifully finished ensuite. A separate formal lounge at the front of the home adds further flexibility, easily serving as an additional bedroom or guest accommodation alongside a full adjoining bathroom. Upstairs continues the home's sophisticated feel, with a bright and airy design enhanced by excellent natural light. A spacious front bedroom opens to a sun-drenched north-facing balcony, while the main bathroom exudes hotel-style luxury with floor-to-ceiling tiling, a freestanding bath, separate shower, and floating vanity. At the rear, a large retreat with kitchenette and private balcony captures glimpses toward the Bay and city skyline, offering endless possibilities as a theatre room, guest suite, children's retreat or additional living domain. Finished to an exceptional standard, the home also features a 6-star energy rating, double glazing, reverse-cycle heating and cooling, quality flooring, bespoke lighting, excellent storage, and a double garage with rear laneway access. Set within a prized bayside address, just a short stroll to the waterfront, Williamstown's cafés, Newport village, train stations, parks, and leading schools including Westbourne Grammar, this is a rare opportunity to secure a home where luxury design meets an enviable bayside lifestyle.
