Picture-perfect Hamptons mansion a Mermaid Beach 'unicorn'. Facing north-east on a double block just steps from the sand and surf, this delightful tri-level mansion is a true unicorn in tightly-held Mermaid Beach.

Inspired by America's grand Hamptons estates, a charming palette of cool blue and crisp white makes it impossible not to fall for this picture-perfect property at first sight. Large casement windows, French doors and soaring ceilings with traditional dormer windows, invite natural light into every corner, highlighting detailed fretwork, VJ panelling and whitewashed timber floors.

Open and airy living defines the ground floor where a 'Farmers' handmade kitchen, featuring intricately carved timber and a bespoke Italian navy blue Ilve oven, brings timeless culinary character to the heart of this exceptional home. Glass doors stack aside to create a seamless flow to multiple covered alfresco dining and sitting zones, overlooking an inviting resort-style pool and lush tropical gardens.

A complete second full indoor-outdoor kitchen is an entertainer's dream - equipped with a built-in Beefeater BBQ, TV sports bar and ample bench space, it's ideal for summer soirees with family and friends or for hosting catered events.

Upstairs bedrooms are connected via a floating bridge, affording peace and privacy for the grand master suite on one wing. The cherry on top is a den, aptly dubbed "The Lookout", where large windows allow 280-degree views of the ocean, Mermaid Beach and the hinterland.
