2A Shandford Avenue

All the privilege of Brighton waterfront living, without the absolute beachfront premium. Positioned just one property from the foreshore within Brighton's tightly held Golden Mile, this exceptional 531sqm* landholding presents a rare opportunity to create a landmark coastal residence in one of Melbourne's most prestigious beachfront precincts. Bordering a premier front-row waterfront estate and benefiting from protected sightlines across Dixon Reserve, the property captures uninterrupted bay outlooks, spectacular sunsets and sweeping views toward the Melbourne skyline a level of openness and visual connection typically associated with absolute waterfront homes. With direct beach access via the rear laneway and surrounded by some of Brighton's most architecturally significant residences and expansive private estates, the site offers the ideal foundation for a world-class new home, including the proposed architect-designed "Shandford House" concept, with plans and renders available for consideration (STCA). The level north-south allotment features approximately 15 metres* of frontage and approximately 33 metres* of depth, creating exceptional scope for expansive indoor-outdoor entertaining, rooftop terraces, wellness amenities and luxury family living, all designed to maximise the extraordinary coastal orientation. What truly distinguishes this opportunity is its unique positioning, capturing the openness, outlook and immediate connection to the bay typically enjoyed by front-row waterfront homes, while offering a significantly more compelling entry point into Brighton's prestigious Golden Mile. Wake to the calm of the bay. Walk directly to the foreshore. Watch the sun set across the water from your upstairs living domain while the city skyline glows in the distance. Located moments from Brighton's iconic bathing boxes, The Baths, Royal Brighton Yacht Club and marina, the property also enjoys immediate access to Bay Street and Church Street's celebrated cafés, restaurants, boutiques and wellness precincts. Families will appreciate proximity to Melbourne's leading schools including Brighton Grammar, Firbank Grammar, Haileybury, St Leonard's College and Star of the Sea College, while the CBD remains conveniently accessible within approximately 20 minutes. A rare opportunity to secure protected waterfront amenity, enduring bay views and architectural prestige within one of Melbourne's most exclusive coastal enclaves.
