Soak in the serenity with this stylish beachside residence.
This Palm Beach pile promises serenity in spades. Built upon the cliff overlooking the Pacific Ocean, the luxurious residence’s north-easterly aspect captures panoramic views of the water.
The 4-bedroom, 4-bathroom, 2-car garage home was reimagined and designed by architect Steven Domoney, with its orientation ensuring it is bathed in natural light.
And so, one finds the open plan living on entry, that effortlessly flows to the dining and living space (fitted with gas-fireplace) and through to the broad outdoor dining terrace — ideal for entertaining.
One gets a sense for the style of the home with the combination of timber flooring, crisp white walls and exposed rafters overhead elevating the coastal allure of the home.
Both those spaces see the kitchen at the core, with a stainless-steel benchtop and Miele appliances adding an element of functionality to the home.
Upstairs sees the bulk of the accommodations with three bedrooms. Here, the master bedroom features a modern ensuite and built-in robes while bedrooms two and three share a bathroom on the level. The larger of the two ancillary bedrooms enjoy access to the balcony.
On the lower level, the home boasts a self-sufficient area complete with dining and lounge rooms, opening onto a terrace with ocean views, a master sized bedroom with built-in robes and an ensuite. The space serves as a retreat for extended family, teenagers or to rent out separately.
Also on the lower level is a walk-in laundry and attached wellness sauna while an outdoor shower and landscaped garden.
Further, the residence has had a DA approved for the addition of a fourth-floor living space, pool and horizontal access from the carport to a lift.

Scheduled auctions fall to winter levels as vendors hold back on going to market
Grand final fever and the long weekend have dampened scheduled auction activity this weekend, CoreLogic reports.
The number of homes scheduled for auction this weekend is set to halve, with 1,324 properties listed, marking the quietest week since mid June. Melbourne will experience the quietest week since Easter, CoreLogic data shows, with 223 homes prepared to go under the hammer. In Sydney, 805 properties are expected to go to market, the lowest number in seven weeks.
With long weekends in Queensland and South Australia, numbers are also down in Brisbane (111) and Adelaide (86), less than half the properties available for auction the previous week. It’s a less dramatic drop in Canberra, where 83 homes are scheduled for auction, down -22.4 percent on the previous week.
