Post pandemic lifestyles have led to a huge shift in the way we live and work with a massive surge in demand for properties that offer space, privacy and a close connection with nature and the great outdoors. If you’re looking for the ultimate family compound, Ty Demirezen has listed an incredible estate at 14 Minkara Road, Bayview which lays claim to being one of the suburb’s largest landholdings. Set on over four acres (1.8 hectares) where the rainforest meets the coast, this unique estate last traded 30 years ago and is cocooned amid lush tropical gardens with views over Mona Vale Beach and Long Reef from the upper level.

Bayview is renowned as one of the most exclusive suburbs on the northern beaches, tucked away behind Mona Vale, with close proximity to great surf breaks and scenic waterways making it a perfect spot for boating and outdoor enthusiasts. Ty says, “This really is a pocket of paradise and quite unlike anything else on the market. ‘Illalangi’, meaning house on the hill, was custom built to take full advantage of its breathtaking outlook but it’s the gardens that make it such a special place. With so much land, there’s plentiful room for a pool, tennis court or even a secondary dwelling and with a buyer’s guide of $6m offers exceptional value and an extraordinary lifestyle opportunity.”

From the north, we travel down to the south and the tranquil coastal hamlet of Bundeena where Debbie Donnelley has a beachside garden apartment for sale at 5/96-98 Loftus Street, Bundeena. In the heart of the village, opposite the post office, the designer three-bedroom apartment in The Point Pavilions features an enormous entertainer’s terrace and double garage making it the ideal  weekender or luxury holiday rental. Debbie says, “This is the perfect turnkey opportunity with stylish contemporary interiors, a superb villa-like layout and even an outdoor shower for rinsing off after a day on the beach. It’s just one hour’s drive from the city or a 20 minute ferry trip from Cronulla with the wharf just across the street for ultimate convenience.”
