Treetop tranquility meets modernist design

Designed by John Sara of Castleden & Sara Architects and inspired by the clean lines of Bauhaus modernism, 'Tintagel' (c.1984) is unlike anything else in Merewether. From its signature circular brick walls, exposed pine ceilings, and towering steel girders to its sculptural staircase, a true showpiece that connects the home's multiple levels, this is architecture that makes a statement. Vast floor-to-ceiling glass frames leafy views from every angle, giving the sensation of floating in the treetops.

Thoughtfully updated, the home now blends character with comfort. The contemporary kitchen, master ensuite, laundry, guest powder room, and third bathroom bring a fresh, contemporary edge. And just as impressive are the owner's recent additions. The ducted a/c has been upgraded which services the lower and main levels, and three new split systems installed upstairs for year-round comfort.

The backyard has had a total glow-up too, with earthworks and levelling utilising steel gabion baskets filled with river rock and topped with natural Indian granite stone slabs, softened with native plantings and a lush lawn for the kids and pets to play safely. Poolside now features an Eclipse rain-sensor roof making it perfect for all-weather entertaining and has been fully updated for compliance.

Inside, the sunken lounge and dining area open out to a wraparound verandah, where you'll spot glimpses of Merewether golf course. On the other side, a relaxed sitting room flows seamlessly through glass sliding door to the pool and alfresco zone, making it easy to cook, entertain, and keep an eye on the kids. Downstairs, a versatile third living area, fifth bedroom, and full bathroom add flexibility, while three bedrooms and the original family bathroom are tucked quietly away upstairs.

You're minutes from The Junction precinct's cafés and shops, and the beach is practically on speed dial for those quick swims or surf sessions.
