Dover Heights 8 Wentworth Street

Architectural Masterpiece With Spectacular Ocean Views

Inspired by its dramatic clifftop location, this stunning contemporary residence commands dazzling ocean views to the horizon, north-east towards Sydney Heads and south to Bondi Beach. Towering high above the ever changing seascape, it is privately hidden at the end of a driveway in a prized cul-de-sac just a short walk to parklands, North Bondi cafes, restaurants and the beach.
London-based architects Walters and Cohen, in collaboration with Sydney-based architects Collins and Turner, designed the house with elegant minimalist interiors and seamless connection with the outdoors. Built by Bellevarde Constructions, it has two wings connected by a gallery entry (with 6.6 metre high ceiling) and glass atrium with corten steel sculpture by artist Christopher Hodges.
The open-plan upper level has large living, dining, study, TV areas and gourmet gas kitchen flowing to north-facing sun terraces and wet-edge pool. The lower level has a huge main bedroom (with dressing room & ensuite), 2nd big bedroom (with ensuite), 3rd bedroom or studio/workshop (with ensuite powder room), laundry, plant room and 3-car garage with internal access. The upper split-level has a powder room and spacious guest suite (or home office) with living area, 4th bedroom and ensuite.
Additional features include an internal lift, soaring ceilings, double-height glass, polished concrete floors, concealed lighting, recycled Jarrah stairs and cabinetry, b/in wardrobes and storage, underfloor heating, gas heating bayonet, b/in gas barbecue, alarm, outdoor hot & cold shower and mezzanine storage area.
