luxury houses with reception room for sale Paddington, Australia

Solare d'Oro does not announce itself from the street. It reveals itself once the gates close behind you. The Italian hand is unmistakable. Terracotta roof tiles imported from Italy. A stone paved arrival sweeping to a central water feature. A 5.1 metre portico. Colonnaded verandahs on every side. Imported Italian travertine and marble carry throughout the property, laid with a restraint that speaks of confidence rather than display. Spotted gum hardwood runs the length of the living zones. Chandeliers make quiet statements in the foyer, the library and the master suite. Custom panelling and wainscoting, executed by hand, give the rooms the elegance of proportion rather than ornament. The decisions here were made once and made correctly. Italian terracotta rather than concrete tile. Copper guttering rather than colorbond. Australian wool rather than builder's grade. Full marble rather than reconstituted stone. This is sophistication of the enduring kind, the sort that reveals itself slowly, in the weight of a door and the fall of light across a marble floor. Nothing was value engineered, and it shows in every room. Beyond the terrace, a twenty by eleven metre pool sits in a private northern aspect with its own hexagonal pavilion, the hinterland rising beyond toward Nerang National Park. And then there is the scale of it. Two acres of rare, flat, usable land. Four separate buildings. A main residence of 968 square metres. A self contained cottage residence. Two worksheds with ceilings to 4.8 metres. A six bay truck carport standing 5.5 metres tall. In total, 1,766 square metres under roof, thirty four vehicles and more, and two entirely independent households living side by side without ever crossing paths. It is a configuration the hinterland simply does not produce, and the reason this address will not be compared to anything else on the market.

There are homes defined by their location and others by their architecture. Here, the distinction is having both. Completed in late 2024 and privately positioned on a rare 8,579sqm (approximately 2.1 acres) parcel in beachside Mudjimba, this bespoke north facing residence offers exceptional space, light and seclusion—within walking and cycling distance of the beach, village, golf course and Maroochy River. Backing directly onto Twin Waters Golf Course and opposite Maroochy River Conservation Park, the property feels wonderfully private while remaining connected to the best of the Sunshine Coast. Custom designed and constructed using concrete tilt panels, the home is a striking composition of concrete, timber and glass. Ceilings reaching 5.9 metres, polished concrete floors, clerestory windows and expansive glazing create an architectural aesthetic that is dramatic yet beautifully restrained. Its northern orientation draws natural light deep inside while capturing peaceful views across the surrounding greenery. At the heart of the residence, the kitchen, dining and living zones open almost entirely to the north-facing entertaining area. Set beneath a double-height void and timber-lined ceiling, this impressive space creates an effortless connection between indoors and out. The streamlined galley kitchen features concrete benchtops, soft-close cabinetry, induction cooking, quality appliances and a Bosch dishwasher. An oversized parallel butler’s pantry provides extensive preparation and storage space while preserving the kitchen’s clean, minimalist design. A glass-lined timber breezeway connects the home’s two principal wings. Three bedrooms, a fully tiled bathroom and an additional living area occupy the secondary wing, creating excellent separation for children, extended family or guests. The upper level is reserved for the private primary retreat. Polished concrete floors, a timber feature wall and generous glazing are complemented by an expansive walk-in robe and luxurious ensuite with a freestanding bath, oversized shower and twin vanities. Four bedrooms, a dedicated office, multiple living zones, two bathrooms and a powder room provide outstanding flexibility for family life, entertaining and working from home. Outside, the flat, fully fenced grounds offer remarkable privacy and freedom. Electronic gated entry adds further seclusion, with the residence positioned discreetly away from the road. In addition to the attached garage, a powered 11.2m x 9.2m three-bay garage provides exceptional storage and workspace for vehicles, boats, caravans and lifestyle equipment. Council-approved swimming pool plans are in place, offering the opportunity to complete the property’s resort-inspired vision. Two 22,000-litre water tanks, a water spear and garden pump further enhance its practicality.
