Some homes capture the essence of their surroundings. This leafy home – covered in a crawling vine — does just that, with panoramic water views across the Double Bay to Point Piper and waterfront access, it sees functional elegance and sophistication meet in a combination of free-flowing interior and outdoor spaces.
Anchored by its privileged position in a secluded cul-de-sac in Darling Point, the residence was designed by award-winning firm BKH with interiors customised by Nick Tobias and sees 6-bedrooms, 7-bathrooms, 4-car garage spanning four levels.
Down on the main floor, all living and dining areas – formal and informal – flow onto a wrap-around terrace with magnificent views via floor to ceiling sliding doors accompanied by tall ceiling heights.
It’s here one finds the heart of the home, the kitchen, and adjoining butler’s pantry and wine room. The main kitchen – one of three in the property — is fitted with Calacatta marble benchtops and Miele gas appliances with an integrated Liebherr fridge.
The living area opens to an inground heated pool with swim jets and an outdoor shower connected to an entertaining terrace.
Elsewhere a private office and study area – complete with panelled bookshelves adjoins the formal lounge with a gas fireplace.
The home’s spacious bedrooms exude comfort and style – each with built-ins, ensuites – while the master wing provides ‘his’ and ‘his’ walk-in robes and an exquisite ensuite with a standalone bathtub.
Throughout the home, the bathrooms are fitted with stone benchtops and custom cabinetry.
Down on the lower level sees an independent guest accommodation with an integrated kitchen and a rumpus/home cinema space with access to the courtyard.
Further, a fully self-contained apartment is on title with independent access overlooking the water and makes for an ideal teenage retreat, guest accommodation or caretaker’s residence containing its own kitchen.
Accessing all four levels is made easy by the internal lift and smart home technology with remote access while private stairs to the water’s edge of Darling Point offers the pinnacle of luxury.

The home in the village of Sagaponack has plenty of balconies to take in the surrounding water views
A waterfront home in the Hamptons village of Sagaponack, New York, is on the market for the very first time.
Asking $25.95 million, the gray shingle-style home was built in 2008 by the seller and has since been available as a summer rental, but it’s never been up for sale.
Designed by architect Faruk Yorgancioglu, the “waterfront home offers privacy and panoramic beauty that cannot be duplicated under today’s zoning laws,” said co-listing agent Marilyn Clark of Sotheby’s International Realty – Bridgehampton Brokerage.
The seller bought the property, which at the time had two small structures, at auction in 2005 for approximately $2 million, according to co-listing agent Deborah Pirro of Daniel Gale Sotheby’s International Realty. Mansion Global could not contact the seller.
The home hit the market Thursday, and in addition to Clark and Pirro, it is co-listed by Raquel Lopez of Sotheby’s International Realty – Bridgehampton Brokerage and Diane Anderson of Daniel Gale Sotheby’s International Realty.
Spanning 6,000 square feet, the home is filled with bright interiors, which were designed by New York-based interior designer Steven Gambrel. The open gourmet kitchen flows into a casual dining area and a living space with a fireplace, which is one of two double-sided fireplaces in the home, Pirro said.
“The placement and scale of fireplaces throughout the home is perfection,” she added.
A separate dining room has French doors that open onto a deck, listing photos show.
There are six en-suite bedrooms, including two primary bedrooms. The larger of the two is its own private retreat, outfitted with a fireplace, a sunroom and a large balcony, offering a space to watch the sun set over Sagaponack Pond, according to Sotheby’s.
The home sits on a little more than an acre of waterfront land, bordering Sagaponack Pond, where there’s a private dock, and looking out at the Atlantic Ocean in the distance.
“The location on the pond with the view of the ocean waves breaking is spectacular and unique,” Clark said. “You are close to beaches and the Sagaponack General Store. It is a quick paddle to the famous Sagg Main Beach.”
Other outside amenities include a gunite swimming pool and a hot tub, which are surrounded by a spacious deck, as well as a pool cabana, which has a full bathroom, changing rooms and a sauna. There’s also multiple balconies, decks and a screened porch overlooking the pool, striking a balance between indoor and outdoor living.
