Immersed in nature, whether in the winding waterways, the beach tracks and bush walks or watching the sun rise over the waves or set across the ranges, there is a rhythmic flow to life in Hastings Point and a lucky few get to ride this lifestyle all year long!

THE LAYOUT

A modern and practical interpretation of beachside luxury, no expense has been spared in creating this executive home. Set over two stories, the home features a spacious and functional floorplan which emphasises the grandeur of the home. Upon entry, you are met by a floating staircase which draws the eye up through the void space exposing soaring, cedar lined ceilings. On the entry level, you will find a 3 car garage / workshop, 2 carpeted bedrooms with robes, the family bathroom and a large family lounge room. Featuring vinyl floors in the garage, engineered spotted gum flooring throughout the living areas and timeless travertine tiles in the bathroom, the neutral colour palette compliments the external environment aligning with the soft greens of the manicured gardens and the subtle tones of the sandstone feature tiles. Positioned at the end of the entry hall, sits the Apollo 3 Passenger Automatic Lift, a thoughtful addition whether it be to conveniently help with the groceries or to ensure that even age, with its ailments will not prevent you access to the upper level and its majestic views.

From the upstairs lift and stair landing, the views make an immediate impression! Surian red cedar framed doors and windows stretch from the floor to the apex of the cathedral ceiling, drawing in the symphony of blues and greens of the inlet, ocean, and sky. Draped in light, this area is home to open plan kitchen and lounge areas with a formal dining alcove. Each with stunning views of the ocean and reserve. In particular, the spacious kitchen is rich in features. Adorned with Smeg appliances, granite island bench, jarrah trim and divine 2 pac satin finished cabinetry, the soft and natural tones, paired with the ocean views and bamboo planting evokes a feeling of serenity in this space. Positioned behind the kitchen are the laundry with linen and broom closets and a separate powder room finished with the meticulous attention to detail that is consistent throughout the home.

One of the standout features of the home is the master suite. Offering commanding views of the creek and beach and direct access to the verandah, this room is a heavenly haven. Complimented by a sumptuous ensuite with partners double vanity, separate toilet, and extensive walk-in robe, this exceptionally practical space is also finished with floor to ceiling travertine tiles, marble benchtops and jarrah joinery. Thoughtfully placed louvered glass windows promote airflow and capture summer breezes, and draped curtains create privacy.

Arguably the homes greatest asset, is the expansive entertaining verandah, which provides an immersive, front row seat to the coastline. Facing due North, the lounge, dining, and bar areas capture the cool summer breezes and mesmerizing views. Complete with French patterned travertine tiles, tiered cedar lined ceilings and louvered under-balustrade shutters, this space is both beautiful and practical. There is staired access to the ground floor, where you are met by the outdoor shower and storage area as well as the low maintenance, manicured lawn, and gardens. A coded gate provides access straight out to the street and the creek, beach, and headland beyond. Fully fenced, there are adequate areas for children to play and options for a plunge pool for those poolside afternoons after the beach. Smart and practical, biophilic design principles are evident throughout the home, these truly take advantage of both the orientation and location of the home. They amazingly consider airflow, light, and solar patterns, as well as the implementation of a 310L heat pump, the home is intentionally environmentally friendly and exceptionally well insulated. By taking advantage of natural, light, heating and cooling, the owner both reduces their impact on the environment whilst also saving electricity.
