Designed by renowned Sydney-based architect Terry Fripp, this is not just a home, it's "an estate where the lines between indoors and outdoors blur harmoniously". At least, that’s how Sotheby’s International Realty Western Australia described the place.
Iconic in its own right, this exquisite mansion was built in 1998 and was designed to capture the stunning view from every single room.
From mother-of-pearl teak Balinese doors to Italian marble floors, American oak cabinetry, and fossilised slate from the Tiananmen region of China, the interior is truly one-of-a-kind, with the most exemplary materials and fixtures adorning every room.
Floor-to-ceiling glass windows and slider doors seamlessly extend the living spaces into the surrounding landscape, making the most of views of the Leeuwin Ridge, the ocean, and the Margaret River mouth.
The grand living room features a soaring 20-foot-high (6.1m) ceiling and a wall of glass, for unobstructed views over the 85-foot (26m) pool.
There's also a kitchen decked out with marble, timber, and stainless steel, as well as a dining room, four bedrooms, and four bathrooms in total. The master suite provides ocean vistas, a sunken spa bath, and Italian marble finishes.
Plus, the property is within walking distance of world-famous surfing and swimming beaches, the Margaret River itself and the region’s internationally renowned vineyards. What could be better?
The home last sold for AU$3 million (£1.5m/$2m) in March 2025, according to property marketplace, Domain.
Known as Villa BE, this remarkable estate is perched above the golden coastline of Lugger Bay, in South Mission Beach, providing breathtaking views that stretch across Dunk and Bedarra Islands.
The ultimate in tranquil luxury, the residence was architecturally designed and meticulously curated with the finest materials for a truly outstanding finish.
Accommodating up to 16 guests at a time, the residence has five opulent bedrooms, five bathrooms, open-plan living areas, a gourmet kitchen, and a butler's pantry.
Glass walls frame the natural beauty that surrounds the home, while high-end furnishings decorate every space.
From a 23-foot-long (7m) stone island in the kitchen to custom joinery, elegant fireplaces, and integrated seating, the home truly was designed with perfection in mind.
Plus, the secluded master suite comes with a designer dressing room, an en suite, and a private terrace featuring an outdoor stone bath.
Set on more than seven acres (2.8ha) of land, Villa BE is incredibly private, yet the Kennedy Walking Track, the Great Barrier Reef, and the Wet Tropics rainforest are right on its doorstep. Additional highlights include an expansive infinity-edge pool, lush tropical gardens, a caretaker's apartment, stables, and a vast garage for a luxe car collection. Plus, there's a helipad for easy access.
The home sold in March 2025 via Sotheby's International Realty Queensland with a listing price of AU$9 million. That's £4.4 million ($5.9m). If only we were wealthy VIPs!
Nestled on half-an-acre (0.2ha) in Mount Martha, moments from the Balcombe Estuary and the waters of the Mornington Peninsula, Safe Haven is a truly incredible contemporary home.
Constructed from concrete and glass, it features a bold exterior aesthetic, with a curving lower floor and box-like upper storey.
Previously for sale with Peninsula Sotheby's International Realty for an undisclosed sum, the property was truly designed for those with discerning tastes. The interior benefits from European-inspired details and the finest finishes.
As you step inside, the home’s grandeur unfolds before you. There’s a stunning timber-clad entrance hall, reminiscent of a luxe spa, a bar with a sweeping marble island, a commercial-grade kitchen, and an open-plan living and dining area that exudes sophistication.

Outside, a saltwater pool is the perfect spot for a leisurely swim and seamlessly blends in with the horizon, thanks to uninterrupted bay views. The pool is flanked by front and rear alfresco areas for dining or quiet contemplation.
Safe Haven is aptly named, since it also comes equipped with a high-end security system for total peace of mind.
Modern, beautiful and sprawling in equal measure, this incredible four-storey show-stopper lies in the Rose Bay neighbourhood of Sydney and has been described as “one of the East's most admired properties”.
The pad was designed by local architect Bruce Stafford and occupies a privileged harbour setting, enjoying direct access to the Dumaresq Reserve and the waterfront of the bay.
The palatial pad was designed for those who love to entertain, but also for a large family. It benefits from lift access to all floors, a home theatre, a teenager's retreat, a huge billiard room on the entertainment level, and even au pair accommodation with a private entrance.

Stately and truly stunning, Noorilim is an iconic country estate that’s home to one of the finest private residences in all of Australia.
Celebrated for its architectural grandeur, spectacular traditional interior and storied history, the romantic Italianate mansion is truly the jewel in Victoria's real estate crown.
Located in Wahring, Victoria's thoroughbred racehorse breeding heartland, the property is enclosed by 160 acres (65ha) of land, comprising mature vineyards, pastures, a sandy beach, numerous historical outbuildings, and sprawling botanic gardens designed by William Guilfoyle around 1880.
Noorilim is also positioned on the Goulburn River and became a stud farm in the early part of the 20th century, rearing no less than three winners of The Melbourne Cup. The 1910 cup winner and champion stallion, Comedy King, resided here and is even buried in the grounds.
The castle-like residence was designed by architect James Gall back in 1879, for parliamentarian William Winter-Irving. Constructed during a Gold Rush boom when money was in abundance in the region, the home was crafted by the finest artisans, using the most exquisite materials. More than 140 years later, the mansion remains truly captivating, with its majestic tower, elaborately arched verandas, and grand columns.
Of course, the interior of the home is every bit as impressive. There are 20 rooms in total, all generously proportioned, with high ceilings and opulent décor. The grand hall sets the tone for the mansion’s lavish interiors, featuring Corinthian columns and exquisite Minton tiles, laid by Italian artisans.
The estate includes 10 bedrooms, five bathrooms, 15 fireplaces, seven staircases, and historic servants’ quarters. Among its standout features is a minstrels’ gallery, where the legendary Dame Nellie Melba once performed.
There’s also a sitting room, library, and dining room with full-height windows, intricate mouldings, and damask wallpapers. The master bedroom suite is a spectacular retreat, boasting deep red walls, a white marble fireplace, and breathtaking views of the estate.
The property was previously listed for sale with Christie’s International Real Estate Victoria for an undisclosed sum. Well, you can't put a price on perfection!
This beautiful, French-inspired home was architecturally designed and built by the current owner.
Sprawling and stylish, it’s clear that no expense was spared in the creation of this remarkable and luxurious holiday home. Let’s take a closer look…

As modern as it is unusual, Alkira Resort House in Cape Tribulation, Queensland, is unlike any home you might have seen before.
Nestled in the depths of a rainforest, the iconic Brutalist-inspired property was designed by famed architect Charles Wright in 2013 and is akin to a spacecraft that's just touched down on Earth.
The pad was originally built for stamp dealer Rob Perry and named Stamp House in his honour. There are playful nods to his profession throughout the home, too, in the punctured indents that adorn the concrete façade.
The incredible modern home was prefabricated from robust concrete, steel, and glass and boasts cantilevered sections that jut out over the water on which the home sits. This design wasn't just chosen for aesthetic purposes, either. The house lies in a region known for its devastating tropical cyclones, so the cantilevers and building materials help to minimise the impact of flooding and flying debris on the building.
The unique mansion measures a staggering 11,398 square feet (1,059sqm) and features a huge central living space and six wings, each housing a private bedroom.
The main social hub benefits from a lounge, dining area, kitchen, and other entertaining zones, all topped by a dramatic, geometric ceiling of bisecting concrete beams. In the bedrooms, natural timber and glass allow for cosy and tranquil spaces.
Yet the home's most enticing feature has to be its central swimming pool, which mirrors the silhouette of the One Pound Jimmy postage stamp, in honour of both Rob Perry's beloved job and the region's Aboriginal heritage.
What's more, Alkira Resort House is located in a unique position, where two UNESCO World Heritage sites meet – the Daintree Rainforest and the Great Barrier Reef.
One of the country’s largest and most palatial residences, 26 Knightsbridge Parade East is a seriously impressive address.
Encompassing five blocks of land in the covetable Knightsbridge Parade area of Sovereign Islands, a suburb of Paradise Point, the six-bedroom, nine-bathroom mega-mansion boasts 348 feet (106m) of sheltered waterfrontage and a 98-foot (30m) waterside pool.
Designed by Brunei Royal Family architect Bayden Goddard, the historic-looking château wouldn't look out of place on the French Riviera.
The exterior gets its European good looks from imported Spanish terracotta roof tiles, Roman-style gardens, and Turkish travertine feature columns.
Inside, luxury prevails at every turn. From the soaring entrance lobby with sweeping views over the Gold Coast Broadwater and Australia's only 13-foot-tall (4m) King Neptune bronze Italian statue, to the sprawling Hamptons-style kitchen that's perfect for entertaining, this is a house for those who appreciate the finer things in life.
Case in point? There is a commercial-grade lift service throughout and a Turkish bathhouse to boot. How's that for billionaire bling?
No expense has been spared in building this modern mega-mansion, which took more than six years to complete. The house is extremely strong and stable, with 250 screw piles drilled into the bedrock. The upshot? It can withstand a category five hurricane or typhoon!
It is also extremely beautiful, with this huge lounge area boasting 26-foot-high (8m) ceilings, wooden parquet flooring, and stylish arched windows and doorways. The regal estate was previously on the market with Alex Phillis Real Estate for AU$44.2 million (£21.5m/$29.1m).
Perched atop Island Point in Port Douglas, Queensland, this glamorous mansion offers Instagram-worthy views that stretch across Four Mile Beach, majestic mountain ranges, and the Coral Sea.
Named The Glasshouse, the exquisite three-level residence not only boasts a stunning exterior, but a truly unique interior, too.
Previously listed with Queensland Sotheby's International Realty, for AU$6 million (£2.9m/$4m), the home recently received a multi-million-dollar renovation and is now awash with vibrant art pieces and bold splashes of colour.
There are multiple living spaces, both indoors and outdoors, making The Glasshouse perfect for savouring Australia’s enviable climate. There's a lounge, dining room, and huge kitchen, which all connect to a large outdoor terrace.
Upstairs, you’ll find four bedrooms and four bathrooms. The master suite has its own private veranda with unbelievable coastal views.
There are a total of 13 air conditioning units that keep the property comfortably cool, while an alarm system and 12-camera CCTV system ensure the utmost security.
Outside, you’ll find a saltwater pool with a heating and cooling system – perfect for ensuring the ideal temperature all year round. There’s also a sunbathing deck, a garage with a motorised automatic door for secure parking, and extensive outdoor lighting.
The property is adorned with 3,000 tree orchids and 2,000 tropical plants, as well as a hydrawise irrigation and automatic garden fertilisation system that keeps the landscape vibrant. It's also conveniently located within walking distance of the beach.
