Agent Cassie Jiang said the vast 1367sq m block, as well as its position within the gated estate, were also highlights.

Extensively renovated prior to the sale, the five-bedroom residence was designed for family living and entertaining. Outdoor terraces include a cabana with a bar, a kitchenette, pizza oven, wine fridges, a sauna and a large pool.

Inside, there’s a theatre room, six bathrooms and luxury bedrooms; the main bedroom includes a wood fireplace, chandeliers, walk-in wardrobe with a marble bench, and an ensuite with Travertine flooring.

Designer Jared Poole is the mastermind behind the house’s unique architecture and style, who noted that its dark interiors gave it a smart and sophisticated edge.
