Some homes are shaped by their surroundings. This Ponting Fitzgerald uniquely designed retreat is defined by them!

Set above Sandspit Harbour down a private, tree-lined driveway, this near new home feels suspended in the canopy - peaceful, sheltered and completely immersed in nature. Designed to capture its elevated outlook, every key space opens to panoramic harbour views.

Inside, the home carries the personality of its well-travelled owners. Treasures and artefacts collected from around the world add character and warmth, yet the underlying architecture is timeless and will suit a range of tastes and lifestyles. Should you prefer a different aesthetic, the canvas is already exceptional.

The open-plan kitchen, dining and living area unfolds to the deck and the view, mirrored by a master suite that welcomes the morning sun and coastal breeze. A second bedroom or study sit alongside. Below the house is extensive practical storage space with three water tanks.

Separate guest accommodation is nestled in the bush a short walk away.

Outside, the heated pool is tucked naturally into the landscape, its waterline appearing to meet the harbour beyond. An outdoor shower sheltered by lush greenery adds to the retreat-like feel. Parking for cars and boats is generous, including a dedicated road-level bay.

Private, tranquil and designed with intention, 19 Kanuka Road offers a rare combination of architectural pedigree, natural beauty and everyday ease in Sandspit.
