Part contemporary art gallery, part bayside mansion, Panorama House is a landmark Melbourne home without parallel.
The award-winning Middle Park house is the dream home of self-tan mogul, Kirstie Kirkham, who founded MineTan Body Skin a decade ago.
Now the beauty empire boss has listed her unrivalled residence for $15.9 million to $16.3 million with Kay & Burton director Andrew Sahhar and Danielle Horne alongside co-agent Hugh Jones of Agency Outcomes.
Kirkham is apparently moving on after reportedly paying more than $30 million for the Toorak home of hospitality industry couple Robert and Elizabeth Zagame.
On the corner of bustling Beaconsfield Pde and tree-lined Harold St, the five-bedroom Middle Park property took home two accolades in the 2025 Australian Interior Design Awards; Residential Decoration and Residential Design Best of State (Victoria).
Panorama House, so named thanks to its expansive 270-degree Port Phillip Bay and city views, has appeared in Vogue Living magazine, Yellowtrace, Est and Living Etc.
Melbourne-based interior designer Sally Knibbs of Sally Caroline studio was commissioned to transform the 2018 home built by Visioneer, which Kirkham bought in 2022 from Computershare co-founder Penelope Maclagan for $11.5 million.
Behind its unique raw brick and steel facade, luxury materials are abundant including Travertine Pewter, Green Onyx, and Calacatta marbles including, Romano, Verde, Corchia, Tanotti Green, and Menta.
Surrounded by a sea of traditional yet classically renovated Federation bungalows, the 21st century building is a statement piece in a coveted waterfront location. The home’s own website declares it is a “design that does’t shout. It simply belongs.”
From the ground up, the three-level floor plan makes use of every square centimetre on the 423sq m corner block.
The spacious basement car park offers the homeowner a four-car garage, made possible thanks to a sleek turntable. Underground amenities also include a cellar with wine fridge and a meat dry ager, plus a home gym.
One level up and the ground floor is home to a vast open plan entertaining zone combining a lounge area and wet bar that spills out to an internal landscaped courtyard with retractable roof.
Two bedrooms and two bathrooms, plus a large family-friendly laundry, also sit on the same entry level.
A private lift connects all three layouts with the first floor featuring more everyday entertaining spaces.
A large lounge room is warmed by an Oblica fireplace and frames beach views, while the sophisticated chef’s kitchen has Gaggenau and Sub-Zero appliances, a statement island bench, and a walk-in pantry. The formal dining room has its own dramatic sweeping CBD backdrop.
In the palatial main bedroom suite there is a walk-in wardrobe, a double shower ensuite, as well as access to the private barbecue terrace. A neighbouring glass-walled office has an inspiring panorama of the bay.
Added extras at Panorama House include a Tesla home battery, solar energy integration, and provisions for a pool.
While the bay is on the doorstep, the Beaconsfield Pde home is also close to St Kilda, Armstrong St and Victoria Ave eateries, Albert Park, and loads of city-bound transport.
Co-agents Kay & Burton Bayside and Agency Outcomes are marketing Panorama House via in expressions of interest campaign, closing on September 15, at 5pm

The 7,145-square-foot apartment, with European-inspired interiors, hasn’t traded hands since it was built in 2008.

A Denver condo that hit the market earlier this week for $16 million is now the Mile High City’s most expensive listing.
The new listing by far beats the next-priciest home for sale, a condo in a new development that was put on the market at the beginning of the year for about $9.79 million.
The city’s most expensive single-family home is asking just shy of $9 million—the metro area’s priciest single-family homes tend to be in the Cherry Hills Village suburb.
At 7,145 square feet, the newly listed unit is nearly double the size of the one in the new development and more on par with the size of some of Denver’s most expensive single-family homes.
It’s on the top floor of a seven-story mixed-use building that was built in 2008 in the Cherry Creek neighbourhood, one of the most affluent areas of the city.
The last time the three-bedroom apartment sold was before it was even completed, though it’s been owned under a few different LLCs and trusts.
The seller, who Mansion Global wasn’t able to identify, bought the condo from the developer in September 2007 for $4.047 million, records show.
The design of the interiors is European-inspired, with decorative columns, elaborate millwork and ornate built-ins.
Plus, there’s a mahogany-clad study, a formal dining room that seats up to 30 guests and views of mountains and Denver Country Club’s golf course.
A private terrace adds 1,230 square feet of outdoor living space and features a fireplace and a built-in barbecue, according to the listing with Josh Behr of LIV Sotheby’s International Realty.
A representative for Behr didn’t respond to a request for comment.
