Last Listing description (April 2020)
Perched high on Darlington hill is an architectural vision as striking as the sea views and sunsets it serves over two storeys of ultra modern design - with the added bonus of an AirBnB-worthy self-contained home with rental runs on the board.
The official build date is 2014 but, really, the finishing touches have only just been applied to a 3-bedroom main home with an edgy mix of sharp angles, clean lines and contrasting materials.
And that's just the facade.
Step inside and onto the heated polished concrete floors of an open-plan lower level with the spacial freedom that a mezzanine - and only a 5.6m-high void - can create.
Before your instincts drag you up the laser-cut black steel staircase to that mezzanine, stop to appreciate a kitchen with stone tops, breakfast bar, Amorini two-pack cabinetry, encaustic tile splashbacks and those sea views through double glazed windows.
With its solid concrete vanity, matte black tapware and a freestanding tub atop timber decking, the lower level bathroom epitomises an inspired selections list.
To select the the upper level for the master bedroom is no surprise. But the way it angles the bed towards those sunsets is a masterstroke amongst a walk-in robe, two-way en-suite and terrace balcony.
Bedroom 2 enjoys its own access to that two-way bathroom and mezzanine - the second living space up your sleeve.
The ace in the pack has to be that self-contained retreat with its own open-plan living room, bedroom, stylish bathroom, external access, a recent rental return of $300/week and, you guessed it, that view.
And what a view it is.
