5 The Dress Circle, Tura Beach, NSW 2548

• Luxe contemporary five-bedroom, four-bathroom home • Magnificent north-facing ocean views • Huge corner block with loads of storage and room to move One of the best examples of a well-designed and executed contemporary home we've seen in recent years, this beautiful three-year-old property will have you feeling like you're at a boutique coastal retreat year-round. Offering a combination of space, privacy and luxury in a stunning location, this generous family home has over 300m2 of liveable floor space on the main level, plus the laundry, storage and garage on the lower level. Built by respected local company Coastal Builders, this home is brimming with bespoke features creating a classic, elegant finish and making it a truly one-of-a-kind property. Serious consideration was given to the home's L-shaped floorplan to capitalise on the 1100m2 corner block's orientation and spectacular ocean views towards Bournda Island. Four of the five bedrooms are north-facing with views out over the pool area, all toilets are located within their own separate powder rooms and a void has been incorporated to allow installation of a lift up from the garage should the new owners wish. The use of high-quality interior design elements such as Spanish feature floor tiles, statement pendant lights, wallpapered feature walls, custom built-in cabinetry, floor-to-ceiling sheer linen curtains and Woodcut premium engineered timber flooring throughout, create a cool and distinctive bespoke feel. Meanwhile, the smart digital lock on the front door (operated by keypad, fingerprint or swipe card) sets the tone for the clever use of modern technology throughout the home, another indicator of the focus on detail and liveability. There's also electric, app-controlled block-out roller blinds, a ducted heating and cooling system with floor vents in the central living spaces, and ceiling fans and separate Nobo electric wall heaters in each bedroom for personalised climate preference. Despite the home's energy needs, electricity bills are very minimal due to an extensive 10kw solar system with 36 panels, a 14.2kw battery and a 3-phase inverter. The home's state-of-the-art kitchen features Caesarstone benchtops and splashback, quality SMEG oven with induction cooktop, Schweigen silent rangehood, large island breakfast bench and swathes of hidden cupboard storage. There's also a large butler's pantry with additional SMEG compact speed oven, integrated dishwasher and second fridge/freezer space. Very generous open-plan living and dining spaces adjoin the kitchen making the most of the ocean views, and there's also a second family-sized sitting/rumpus room. The expansive main bedroom retreat also benefits from sweeping ocean views and has a large walk-in wardrobe, ensuite bathroom, and a private seating area/study nook. At the other end of the home is a large guest bedroom - with its own ensuite - as well as bedrooms three and four which have built-in study desks and wardrobes. Bedroom five, closer to the main bedroom would make an excellent nursery or generous home office. Off the main living space, an extra-wide verandah acts as a buffer from the coastal elements and creates a highly useable outdoor space for gathering and entertaining with seating areas, dining table, drinks fridge and built-in barbecue connected to mains' gas. The glass balustrade ensures uninterrupted views of the resort-like 9.5 metre heated swimming pool, complete with tumbled marble pavers, a cabana and a separate pool toilet adjoining the laundry. Thoughtful landscaping has been used to ensure privacy, interest and year-round greenery in both the backyard and the fully-enclosed front yard, which is perfect for kids and pets to play. Storage options are plentiful in this home with a large three-car garage underneath the house -with smart, app-controlled doors – as well as a separate storage room for the golf clubs, surfboards or camping equipment, and a separate workshop space. There's also a second driveway and additional single car garage at the other end of the house, perfect for parking the boat, caravan, trailer or golf buggy. Located in peaceful Tura Beach, an easy less-than-10-minute walk to Dolphin Cove Beach, and just a five-minute drive to Tura Beach shopping centre, The Dress Circle is perfectly located to explore the surrounding beaches, waterways and National Parks of the pristine Sapphire Coast. The resort town of Merimbula with its supermarkets, services and thriving hospitality scene is less than 10-minutes' drive away, as is the region's airport with daily flights to and from Melbourne and Sydney. This thoughtfully-planned and detail-orientated spacious home would be ideal for a family with young or teenage children, or as a luxurious beach house for one or more families seeking their very own coastal retreat on the beautiful Sapphire Coast.
