Overview

This deep waterfront property in a small, exclusive enclave of Cottage Point offers both prestige and privacy within the natural splendor of Ku-ring-gai Chase National Park. The position captures sweeping, inspiring views over the tranquil Cowan waterways, providing a serene backdrop that enhances daily living and leisure.

Architecturally designed by Tom Simmat, the residence is arranged across two thoughtful levels that optimize a sunny north-west orientation. The striking central atrium acts as a focal point, inviting natural light throughout the home and framing picturesque bushland vistas. This design choice not only elevates the aesthetic appeal but also improves ambiance and connection to the outdoors.

Outdoor living is prioritized through expansive terraces and low-maintenance landscaped gardens accented with elegant sandstone, crafting an environment ideal for relaxing or entertaining in style.
