A PROPERTY that presents an attractive and uncommon opportunity will always find buyers fast.
And this multimillion-dollar beachfront home has done exactly that.
When this Nutgrove property launched last week, the response from the market was immediate.
Peterswald agents Harry Coomer and Phoebe Nothling said No.2/9 Beechworth Rd, Sandy Bay has been extremely well received by the market.
She described the location as second-to-none and the superb house as “flawless”.
“It is a divine home in an enviable position,” Mrs Nothling said.
“While being located just a few steps over the sand dunes from the beach, the property is also supremely private with the elevation of the dunes,” she said.
“It creates a sanctuary where you can enjoy the beautiful water view and the sound of the waves reaching the beach.
“And the view toward the city and across the river is sensational.”

Mrs Nothling said the property has broad appeal, being the perfect size for family living, or ideal as a downsize house with its level layout and commercial grade lift to the first floor.
“It is also a rare location, the opportunity to purchase a house here is almost never available,” she said.
“There’s only about half-a-dozen houses in this strip, and they don’t tend to come to the open market. They have been tightly held for decades.”
The property’s owner bought No.2/9 Beechworth Rd in 2005 off the plan with construction complete by 2007.
She was able to work with the builder and architect on many of the home’s finer details, such as the curved living room windows and the kitchen’s Italian granite benchtop.
Together, they chose oak flooring that looks as perfect today as the day it was installed, complimented by high ceilings and decorative cornices.
The architect, now retired, Nicholas Day, has a reputation for designing elegant homes — often in Melbourne’s prestigious Toorak — of an unparalleled level of style and sophistication.
No.2/9 Beechworth sets the standard for luxurious, timeless design and a superlative beachside location.
It is a sweeping statement in effortless contemporary living, where every detail has been carefully considered and crafted to provide the ultimate living experience.

Access to the property is via a private, gated driveway, with topiary greeting you at the portico.
Opening the Italianate front door reveals a stately entrance, soaring high ceilings and a long hallway, which draws you towards the river view in the distance.
Off the hallway is a formal dining room with rich silk drapes, the lift to the upper level, a practical study with a concealed desk and copious shelving and storage, which makes it a fourth bedroom option if desired.
Past the powder room and laundry, there is internal access into the house via the double garage.
The kitchen is a study in bespoke joinery created by a team of master craftsmen.
With Bosch stainless steel appliances, an induction cooktop and stone benchtops, it is functional as well as beautiful.
Disguised behind the cabinetry is a generous butler’s pantry that flows through the dining room, ideal for dinner parties and entertaining.
The living area, with its curved glass and concertina doors, maximises the magical waterfront view. It also provides space for living and dining options.
With the vast glazed doors folded back, the sense of indoor and outdoor becomes blurred — the warm and protected terrace, edged by lawn and clipped hedges, can’t help other than to draw your eye to the riverside vistas.
The magnificent iron balustrade of the staircase conjures imagery of old-world European glamour, as does the warm oak parquet flooring and the clean lines of the open fireplace, which is conveniently electric and lights at the touch of a button.
Head upstairs to discover two well-appointed bedrooms, with gorgeously dressed windows, bespoke built-in wardrobes, deep pile wool carpet and luxurious ensuite bathrooms with frameless glass showers, marble-topped vanities, heated towel rails and underfloor heating.
At the end of the naturally lit hallway is the lavish master bedroom suite, a showcase of luxury living with its elevated views, expansive private balcony, dressing room and hotel-style bathroom, including a separate bath, an enormous marble-topped vanity and a matching framed mirror which spans an entire wall.
