With its luxury hotel vibe and ocean views from every angle, the mighty house at 189 The Esplanade is almost the kind of place you’d pay an entry fee to see.
Even the vendor had to gather his thoughts when asked to describe the bold beachfront residence.
“I’m actually a bit lost for words. It’s paradise. Made perfect,” he said.
“The views are stunning – looking out at the gateway to Port Phillip Bay and watching the marine traffic.
The rooftop terrace aka bliss.
“Torquay is a beautiful place to live and the home was perfect for the casual lifestyle that we have.”
Price hopes are $5.6 million to $5.9 million for the sleek two-storey home.
Set on a 745sq m allotment, it was designed by Torquay architect Lachlan Shepherd and built by Torquay Homes.
And, the features are insane.
There’s a rooftop deck (where the vendor said he spent most of his time), a swimming pool, sauna and eight-car basement.
Add to this a stainless-steel lift, a library/study area with its own private balcony, and a theatre room complete with a kitchenette and projector.
How’s that for pool placement?
McCartney, Torquay agent Tim Carson said the home set a new design benchmark for the Surf Coast, and felt like being inside Crown hotel.
“This is the best house in Torquay,” Mr Carson said.
“The home was crafted with a focus on the future and offers an abundance of indoor and outdoor living with entertainment areas over four levels.”
The main bedroom is an epic sleep sanctuary.
It’s been impeccably finished with polished concrete floors, double-glazed windows, electric blinds and a sound system, plus an ensuite for each bedroom.
