BEAUMARIS HOUSE – ICONIC BAYSIDE LIVING
Beaumaris House – the award-winning vision of renowned architect Clare Cousins – offers rare tranquillity and privacy in one of Melbourne’s most coveted beachside pockets.
A true sanctuary of calm, pairing intelligent design with warm natural materials and considered zoning to create spaces that are both highly functional and beautifully resolved.
Striking from the street with its bagged brick and blackbutt timber detailing, the home opens to breathtaking interiors where expansive north-facing, floor-to-ceiling glazing dissolves the boundary between inside and out.
Offering thoughtfully curated spaces to relax, entertain, work and retreat, among the many highlights are a welcoming lounge and dining domain, illuminated by Lambert and Fils lighting and anchored by a Cheminees Philippe Radiante fireplace. This impressive space connects to serene views across the Japanese-tiled, heated pool and spa, surrounded by established Eckersley-designed native gardens.
Prestige appliances including a pair of fully integrated Liebherr fridge/freezers and Miele ovens feature in the stunning blackbutt kitchen along with G-Lux stone marble and Corian solid surface benchtops, expansive storage and a study nook.
Adjacent to the kitchen, the curved “boat room” – a modern interpretation of an English conservatory, with custom built-in leather sofa – can be used as a peaceful retreat or additional space to entertain friends.
Downstairs, a basement theatre features a 4K projector, cinema screen, Bang & Olufsen 5.1 Sound System and climate-controlled, 700-bottle cellar, along with a spacious wellness room or gym. Upstairs, four serene first-floor bedrooms, a family bathroom and home office/5th bedroom, are bathed in natural light, including the ensuited guest bedroom and sublime primary suite, which has two sets of wardrobes and an ensuite with underfloor heating, double shower and sea-breeze Juliet balcony.
In-slab hydronic heating, reverse-cycle cooling, guest powder room and a laundry with drying cupboard and chute are among the home’s practicalities, while additional luxuries include a discreet upstairs workstation, travertine and solid timber flooring, an exquisite Ottocento bathtub, integrated basement fridge and copious amounts of storage throughout.
Outdoors, magnificent gardens embrace a generous entertaining area with fireplace, BBQ, hidden television and bar fridge. Also offered are a double auto garage with rear access, lockable outdoor storage, secure parking for boats or trailers, comprehensive security and a host of app-enabled, smart home features.
Opposite a track leading to the beach, this prized low-traffic address is a short stroll to the Concourse, Beaumaris Primary School, childcare and preschools, with excellent public transport links. It also sits within the sought-after Beaumaris and Mentone Girls’ secondary zones, and just minutes from leading private and independent schools.
