“I’ve been in the property industry for 26 years, and this is the highest-quality home I’ve ever had the pleasure of listing.”
Strong words from McGrath Merimbula‘s Steve Haslam, but they’re not unfounded.
Set on more than 1100 sqm overlooking Merimbula Bay to Haycock Point and Mount Imlay beyond, 5 Curlew Close is a truly masterful home.
This four-bedroom, three-bathroom residence was architecturally designed and built in 2020 to an incredible standard. Its dedication to quality is obvious, even from the street, where timber cladding, limestone and corten finishes paint quite the pretty picture.
Once indoors, visitors are greeted by a formal entry with vaulted ceilings, Egyptian limestone floors and soft downlights.
A spotted gum timber staircase with glass balustrades leads to the first floor, where the vast open-plan lounge, dining and kitchen await.
“The main living area is huge, filled with light, and you simply can’t beat the view,” Steve says.
“Imagine dining with a backdrop that stretches across the ocean to the horizon. It makes our local New Year’s Eve fireworks extra special.
“Whether it’s a quiet morning coffee or dinner with friends, this home was built for beautiful moments.”
Stone benchtops, timber veneer cabinetry and designer lighting give the kitchen a luxurious feel, but there are plenty of practical elements to discover. They include top-quality appliances and a fully equipped butler’s pantry.
Situated at the front of the home on the first floor, the master retreat features a walk-in wardrobe, high-end ensuite, and private deck with its own Vortex spa.
The ensuite is an experience in itself. Italian porcelain tiles line the room from floor to ceiling, a freestanding stone bathtub marks the centre, and custom timber-panelled vanities bring it all together.
Bedrooms two and three both have built-in storage and share a large family bathroom. They border a casual rumpus room with easy access to the outdoors.
“The fourth bedroom is downstairs and also has its own ensuite,” Steve says.
“This would be the perfect space for guest accommodation, an office or home-based business.”
Air conditioning in living areas, underfloor heating in bathrooms and commercial double-glazed windows throughout keep 5 Curlew Close a comfortable temperature year-round.
Avid entertainers can rejoice – alfresco dining here is a must, thanks to the premium outdoor kitchen with built-in barbecue and pizza oven.
“If relaxed fireside snacks are more your thing, simply head across the tiered lawns to the dedicated fit pit area,” Steve says.
“The landscaping is low-maintenance and makes a real impact. There’s more than enough room for the kids to run around on the grass. You could even put a pool in if you wanted to.”
Other features on the property include a triple garage with an extra storage room, a 12-kilowatt solar system, and a 10,000-litre water tank.
Mirador Estate is a master-planned community ideally positioned between Merimbula’s Main and Tura beaches. The estate enjoys a peaceful outlook over native treetops all the way to the ocean, where migrating Humpback whales can be spotted from mid-May to mid-November.
“Merimbula is a charming seaside town home to a friendly mix of permanent residents and holiday homeowners,” Steve says.
“Our town comes alive over the summer season. We benefit greatly from having our own airport, which offers daily flights to Melbourne and Sydney.
“5 Curlew Close is just minutes from the beach, local shops, community clubs, and Merimbula Public School. This home would really suit families looking for a coastal retreat with plenty of room to relax, entertain and grow.”
