You won’t believe the paradise that lies behind the doors of this gorgeous Byron Bay home: ‘Perfection’

An opulent home inspired by a luxury ‘Balinese resort’ hides behind a unique wood-clad facade on a street lined with million-dollar homes.

House of Sankana exudes ‘sophistication and grandeur’ at every corner with its sharp design and luxurious elements, ranging from the sparkling water feature in the foyer to the wine cellar, zen gardens and epic backyard.

Located in the coastal village of Kingscliff, 40 minutes north of Byron Bay, the chic home is spread over two levels on a huge 1,012 sqm block just steps from the beach.

Guests are impressed from the moment they step through the doors from the ‘edgy’ path to the incredible foyer with a Japanese-style garden and fountain.

A wooden dock guides visitors past a trickling fire-on-water feature beneath a two-story void where succulents dangle toward the 50,000-gallon pond, home to dozens of colorful koi fish.

“The real difference from that street is that these are beachfront blocks that sit on an acre of waterfront land.  This has a larger land area of ​​1,012 square meters and is 20 meters wide, providing a more valuable environment,” he said

‘This is a particularly unique home for this location. The exceptional quality of the materials used is unlike anything I have ever seen. It’s like a Balinese resort with layers of Japanese architecture.’

Despite Kingscliff’s more modest average sales price of $1.8 million, the agent expects the Cylinders Drive property to fetch a price of more than $9 million when it goes under the hammer later this month.

“The real difference with that street is that these are beachfront blocks that sit on an acre of waterfront land. This has a larger area of ​​1,012 square meters and is 20 meters wide, providing a more valuable environment,” he said.

The six-bedroom house, at number 59, Cilinder Drive further away, fetched $8 million last September, while number 83 is also for sale for $8 million.

Witheriff added that the price also reflects the high-quality renovation the sellers carried out on the home, which took them more than four years to complete.
