9/6 Mariners Drive East, Tweed Heads NSW 2485

Located in the most exclusive waterfront enclave of the Northern New South Wales and Southern Gold Coast region - is this 20-year-old structural masterpiece, that will take your breath away.

"The Isle" is a gated estate of 12 very tightly held waterfront properties located in the popular 'The Anchorage Islands' of Tweed Heads. Each parcel on The Isle is on a stand-alone title (no strata title), sharing a tennis court, 25-metre lap pool, BBQ cabana and private bridge over the river for access.

House number Nine is certainly one of the stand-out homes on The Isle. Built by Terry Bilton, one of the area's greatest names in building, and designed specifically to amplify the natural light, water views and entertainment potential. The master suite is located on the ground floor and opens to the warmth of the morning sun and harbour views. The ground level is centred around the sunken lounge with a two-level void and top-to-bottom tinted glass windows. The curved-bench kitchen is equipped with Miele appliances and designed to connect the kitchen, dining and outdoor entertaining area whilst enjoying poolside, water and harbour views. There is also a study located close to the entry, extra bathroom, laundry and internal garage access on the ground level.

Upon entry to the home - you are greeted by a spectacular architecture stairway leading up to the top level. From here - a wrap-around internal balcony connects the open void above the bottom-level living area, wet bar, upstairs living area and upstairs outdoor balcony. All whilst enjoying the brilliance of natural light, river and harbour views. There are three bedrooms on this level, one with an ensuite and two with private balconies looking over the manicured gardens and enjoying the colour-filled sunsets. Servicing the two other bedrooms and entertaining areas is a shared bathroom with a separate powder room.

The pool area is perfect for large gatherings or a quiet place to sit back and enjoy postcard-level scenery. A large remote retractable awning shades the outdoor table space and the pool area is wrapped by perfectly manicured gardens. The (8) metre pontoon jetty is enough to accommodate vessels up to 60 feet (around 20 meters) with a depth of around 3.2 metres off the pontoon.

Agent's notes: If you haven't heard of "The Isle" or you have never been past this island - that's good! It means it's still as secret and as private as the residents here like it to be. Properties here are extremely tightly held. Because the reality is - you'll never find another address or opportunity like it again. The Isle is impeccably well-manicured and maintained. Some residents even have the communal gardeners maintain their property so they can come and go as they please and know that all the gardening is taken care of.

"They don't make them like they used to" is defined by this property. Built on a concrete slab and secured by piers running into the bedrock, with a suspended slab - the home is structured of brick and concrete. This house will likely outlast us all.. Even though it would have been the paramount of property design 20 years ago - this home will still compete against the best in the area built today. The home is tastefully finished and can be very comfortably lived in as-is or ready for a show-stopping renovation.

The biggest drawcard here is the ability to accommodate large vessels. Estates like this are not being developed anymore. The cost, red tape and available land make it nearly impossible for something like The Isle to be developed again. This home is one of only a handful of properties in the Tweed River system where you can moor just about any type of 60-foot vessel right outside your backdoor. And because there are no bridges to go under and the river mouth is only a 4 km sail through deep and well-dredged water - you can accommodate large sailboats with high masts.

House "Nine" on The Isle is a home nothing like you will find anywhere else. There aren't enough superlatives to describe the feeling of a home like this or a word count allowed in this forum to detail every aspect, feature and inclusion of the property. Please enquire about a detailed digital brochure covering every finer point of this truly unique property.

The home has served the owners for the past 20 years as a holiday retreat for the family. However, they have now decided that it's time to pass this truly unique property on to new owners to enjoy.

The owners are also open to offers including the furniture and appliances.
