Crafted to meticulous standards, this inspirational home combines high-end luxury with an imaginative layout that’s perfectly suited to family living. Architecturally-designed by Paul Uhlmann and built by Mactech Constructions in 2018, this award-winning home set a new level for prestigious property on the Southern Gold Coast.

Set on a northern sloped pocket, and only a short stroll to James Street, every detail of the three-level home showcases exceptional attention to detail from the bespoke joinery to the organic palette of timber enhanced by matte black and copper accents. With a Northern aspect, idyllic coastal views and plentiful outdoor space, this is a forever family home in one of the most picturesque streets in Burleigh Heads.

Living is spread over three levels with the first level devoted to the guest sleeping accommodation. Two bedrooms, both with built-in robes and access to the main bathroom, plus a media room that could be used as a fourth bedroom, a living space or rumpus room.

The middle level is home to the main living spaces. Sculpted timber framing showcases the sweeping views while also providing privacy. A range of living spaces from an intimate sunken lounge with fireplace to a pool and poolside deck, an open-plan living space with soaring ceilings and a kitchen are all perfect for entertaining.
