"Villa Ulibarri"

Uncompromised luxury of the highest international standards, this Spanish mission-style manor has every lifestyle facet perfected in this dreamy position right on Daveys Bay beachfront.

Created after a passionate search for luxury and architectural excellence befitting of this exclusive seaside property, beauty has been injected into every function and detail of the home by Florida builder Cornerstone Constructions whose devotion to Spanish architecture is clearly spelt out here, while the interior design spares no expense in its endless imported and custom-made inclusions.

Without doubt Daveys Bay's best home on this coastline where Olivers Hill meets Mt Eliza, the home faces true north capturing a sublime vista stretching from the coastline and Daveys Bay Yacht Club across Port Phillip Bay to Melbourne's city skyline.

A private gate opens to stairs leading down to the beach, where you can walk back from your morning swim and wash off at your outdoor shower, or jump into the heated pool and spa that shimmers with its glass mosaic tiles.

Behind iron gates and a circular driveway, a fountain greets you at the grand entry that shows straight over a sumptuous entertaining zone and the pool to the glistening bay water set just beyond the property's groomed grounds.

Its finishes provide rich warmth and divine spaces, from the beautifully cut travertine from Turkey used in the floors, bathrooms and ceilings, scrapped American Oak, hand-stained cabinetry and Chandon marble in this smart house with Control 4 function and invisible Sonos speakers.

Utterly captivating under an arched travertine ceiling, the state-of-the-art kitchen brings together a complete suite of exclusive Italian appliances, from the Officine Gullo stove to the Gaggenau fridges, ovens and other appliances all with stately Officine Gullo cladding. There is a brass sink with petal design tapware, separate platter dishwasher, vacuum sealer, zip hydro tap with sparkling water, Sub-Zero drinks fridge and ice freezer among the many appliances, while a separate scullery with ladder provides a large integrated freezer.

There are numerous living, dining and entertaining options all beautifully fitted to their function, including the media room, the billiards and theatre room, den and library, while the main lounge and dining areas have a series of French doors out to poolside alfresco terraces with steps down to a firepit lounge where magical sunsets over the bay are mesmerising.

The parent's wing holds a master suite with its own door to a poolside alfresco lounge with fireplace, an ensuite with two marble vanities, shower room, oval spa and a dressing room with a rotating shoe rack and a chandelier over a central display case with customised safe. From here, a door leads out to the gymnasium with infrared sauna and stairs up to a guest suite with kitchenette, ensuite and private balcony.

Two bedrooms upstairs each have ensuites, walk-in robes and a library area beside a grand mezzanine, while a den or study beside the heart of the home has a pull-down Murphy bed.

Across the garden, a freestanding guest house is fully self-contained with a stunning outlook to the bay and over a creek valley that runs along the property boundary.

Among a long list of other inclusions are a lift to the great room, a large double garage with fabulous storage, double carport, a climate-controlled wine cellar, a dumb waiter, and a fruit and vegetable garden filled with a range of delicious produce.
