3 Cairnes Crescent, Brighton.

An entertainer's paradise unfolds across three lift-connected levels, spanning close to 90 squares of meticulously designed living. Every detail has been considered, every surface curated - a home where scale, materiality and flow converge and where every day feels like a five-star escape. This is a residence conceived as much for living as for entertaining, layered in texture, luminous in proportion, and unapologetically bespoke. Welcome to a glass, marble and timber pivot door opening onto interiors where Venetian plaster catches the light and 3-metre ceilings amplify the sense of effortless sophistication. Black French Oak floorboard ceilings hover above granite-clad walls. The formal lounge feels gallery-like in its materiality - stone, timber, light - while a corner study with gas fireplace and garden aspect offers a quieter rhythm. Along the passage a 200-bottle wine display reads as functional art. The kitchen is sculptural and assured: expanses of Carrara marble, a suite of Gaggenau appliances seamlessly integrated and a butler's pantry that conceals preparation without compromising flow. Triple-stacked glazing dissolves the threshold between interior and exterior, revealing a north-facing alfresco pavilion with operable louvres and a fully appointed outdoor kitchen. Beyond a 9.2-metre pool and gas-heated spa shimmer against bluestone paving, edged by lawn and curated landscaping - a composition that balances resort indulgence with family ease. Downstairs, the mood deepens. A private gym, a silk-lined theatre with surrounding acoustics and a dramatic entertaining lounge anchored by a lit up translucent marble island bench and a window into the illuminated pool above. It is less basement, more members' club - intimate, atmospheric and entirely unexpected. Five-car garaging and EV capability underscore the home's contemporary confidence. A ribbon of skylight threads vertically through the stairwell, connecting each level with natural light - an architectural gesture as poetic as it is practical. Upstairs, four bedrooms each hold their own ensuite and integrated workspace, warmed by hydronic heating beneath understated finishes. The principal suite unfolds as a retreat: custom bedhead, sitting room, dressing gallery and a bathroom swathed in Travertine marble slabs, where freestanding bath and double shower sit beneath soft natural light. Fixtures by Roger Seller, Grohe and Villeroy & Boch reflect a commitment to design pedigree. Moments from The Brighton Bathing Boxes, Were Street Village and the bay itself and within easy reach of some of Melbournes most prestigious schools: Brighton Grammar, Firbank, St Leonard's and Haileybury - this is Brighton at its most cultivated: coastal in spirit, metropolitan in execution. A residence of rare scale and rarer intention - designed not simply to impress, but to endure.
