48 North Quay, Scarborough QLD 4020

Masterfully designed by Focus Architecture and impeccably constructed by renowned local builder Brett Morris, the home was completed in 2021 with uncompromising attention to quality, craftsmanship and enduring elegance. Held by the same family since 1976, the site carries decades of cherished memories. The original residence was eventually removed to allow for the creation of the remarkable architectural masterpiece that now stands in its place – a thoughtfully curated trophy home that honours the past while embracing modern luxury.

The home is thoughtfully designed across gentle split levels, creating a wonderful sense of space and separation while still feeling open and connected, with only around eight steps between each level. The residence has been meticulously designed to maximise its elevated north-facing position and capture sweeping vistas across the Golden Triangle and the sparkling waters of Moreton Bay. Expansive glazing invites natural light and cooling sea breezes throughout, while water views are enjoyed from most rooms. Inside, the home unfolds with grandeur – soaring voids, cathedral ceilings and beautifully crafted materials combine to create an atmosphere of understated opulence. The flexible layout accommodates multigenerational living, private guest accommodation or a home business, delivering both versatility and sophistication.

Entertaining is a dream on the main living level, where a magnificent French Provincial kitchen with premium finishes anchors the home’s social heart. Designed for effortless hosting, the space flows seamlessly to a terrace where breathtaking panoramas stretch from sunrise over the bay to sunset behind the mountains. Above, the palatial master suite offers a serene retreat with dressing room and marble-appointed ensuite, while the top-floor observatory provides an extraordinary vantage point for sunset gatherings and quiet moments overlooking the coastline. Outdoors, a resort-style pool finished with Italian tiles is framed by manicured, low-maintenance grounds, creating a private sanctuary designed for year-round enjoyment.
