"Opera by the Sea" – A Symphony of Sea & Pool
"Opera by the Sea”
At Opera by the Sea, timeless design meets coastal calm, inviting you to live in harmony with light, sound, and expansive space. From the moment you step inside, the scent of salt air mingles with sunlight streaming through floor-to-ceiling windows, while the gentle rhythm of waves becomes the soundtrack of your day. This architecturally iconic home offers a front-row seat to the Pacific—a true opera of coastal living.
Key features Step into a world where every detail plays its part in the symphony of luxury. The home’s striking octagonal layout orchestrates light, privacy and space, creating rooms that feel both expansive and intimate. In the sunken lounge, a glass-walled wood fireplace provides warmth and atmosphere while the ocean beyond sets the perfect tempo. Above the living spaces, the mezzanine’s game room with its pool table as the centrepiece offers panoramic views and a stage for sunrise yoga, sunset cocktails or peaceful reflection. A zoned central system for heating and cooling, complemented by ducted ventilation, maintains harmony in every season. Thoughtfully curated and beautifully styled, Opera by the Sea is ready to welcome moments of escape with effortless elegance from the very first act.
Configuration The layout allows family and friends to gather while maintaining a sense of privacy and intimacy. On the entry level, a sunken lounge, media area, kitchen, dining space and guest WC provide versatile living and entertaining zones. Upstairs, the mezzanine serves as a quiet retreat and billiards room, while downstairs every bedroom and bathroom forms a serene sanctuary, designed to capture natural light and echo the gentle cadence of the waves.
★ Sleeping Arrangements - 4 Bedrooms ★ Bedroom 1 (Ground Floor): King Bed x 1, Walk-in-wardrobe, Ensuite Bedroom 2 (Ground Floor): King Bed x 1 Bedroom 3 (Ground Floor): King Bed x 1 Bedroom 4 (Ground Floor): King Bed x 1
★ Bathrooms ★ The bathrooms are havens of tranquillity. The master suite features a double vanity, shower, and WC, while the main bathroom includes a sunken spa bath, double vanity and shower heads plus WC. A separate WC with vanity on the entry level and an outdoor bathroom with shower and WC near the pool are thoughtfully positioned, inviting you to rinse off after a swim or a stroll along the beach.
★ Living Rooms & Mezzanine ★ Multiple living areas create spaces for both togetherness and retreat. Curl up on the lounge with a glass of wine while the ocean whispers beyond the glass walls or gather in the TV lounge under soft, natural light that dances across the room. From the mezzanine, the entire living space feels expansive yet intimate, with ocean panoramas unfolding at every turn.
★ Kitchen & Dining ★ The heart of the home is a chef’s haven, where a commercial-grade kitchen with granite and stainless-steel finishes, premium appliances and cleverly designed storage flows effortlessly into an adjoining dining area, complete with a generous table that comfortably seats all guests. Imagine preparing breakfast as sunlight filters in or hosting a dinner where the waves provide the soundtrack and the sky paints a sunset masterpiece. Every meal becomes an experience of taste, beauty, and connection.
Outdoors Step outside, and the magic unfolds. Drift in the glass-enclosed pool as the sun warms your skin. Wander through lush, landscaped gardens or linger on expansive balconies with the perfect vantage for dolphin-spotting or stargazing. A built-in BBQ area turns gatherings into celebrations beneath the sky, accompanied by the soothing sound of the surf. Every corner of the outdoors invites you to pause, breathe and savour the essence of coastal living.
Parking The lower-level garage doubles as a second entertainment area, complete with a ping pong table - perfect for pre-dinner drinks or casual play. The driveway accommodates two vehicles, with additional on-street parking available for guests.
