Owner-developer Justin Hill is hoping to break his own suburb record with La Belle, an FBC Architects-designed home on a 4117-square-metre landholding adjoining bush reserve and less than 10 minutes’ drive from Wamberal and Terrigal beaches. The vast living spaces are anchored by a dreamy kitchen and there’s a guest house ideal for visitors.
Some seven years in the making, this elegant 1889 Edwardian has been transformed into a cutting-edge family mansion. A monumental staircase adds a modern vibe to the truly enormous showcase family room while marble finishes, steel-framed glass doors and balconies elevate the new spaces. His and hers dressing rooms, a 20-metre pool, a tennis court and Paul Bangay-designed gardens impress.
For those who like their retreats discreet, designer and peaceful, this award-winning house by architect Kerstin Thompson fits the bill. Blending into the regenerated landscape, the home’s floor-to-ceiling windows maximise the spectacular sunset views over Lake Connewarre. A self-contained unit, soundproofed recording studio, outdoor baths, pool, steam room, dedicated sports oval and heli landing are all a bonus.
Rammed-earth walls and charred timber cladding contribute to the relaxed nature of this coastal home. Close to South Beach, the house flaunts a strong indoor-outdoor link to a poolside deck while a striking wood-burning fireplace anchors the family room. Colin Hyett(OK) landscaping and an atrium add the finishing nature-based touches. The agent says it has an “earthy feel while still being super modern”.
Architecture fans will be drawn to this modern icon, designed by Harold Desbrowe Annear in the 1920s and updated with an award-winning renovation by EME Design. The striking circular sunroom and leadlight windows have been kept intact, while the revived living spaces are flooded with northern light and focus on garden views. There’s a sauna tucked into the pool area, and high-end finishes throughout.
Claiming a prized position overlooking Woodford Bay, this waterfront gem comes with two slipways and a boat shed. Grandly scaled with double-height ceilings in the main living zone, the property features multiple indoor and outdoor living zones, a sauna, wine cellar and mezzanine study, and established gardens with a north-facing pool.
Updated by owner and interior designer Janine Lauder, this heritage home is a brilliant blend of period character and modern sophistication. Beyond the 1898 limestone facade is a spacious, single-storey residence with formal and informal living spaces, two studies and a well-appointed kitchen. The garden is a highlight with its vast covered al fresco zone and pool.
