The Sub Penthouse at Santai

Summary:
Welcome to our luxurious private ground floor garden penthouse, boasting million-dollar views in an idyllic setting. This unique space seamlessly combines traditional Balinese design with modern Australian architecture, creating a fusion of elegance and sophistication.

The Sub Penthouse at Santai in Palm Cove is truly remarkable and stands out as the largest, most impressive, and exclusive apartment in the area. Perched high above, it provides a sense of complete sanctuary nestled into the solid rock face of Buchan Point. The panoramic views include Palm Cove, The Coral Sea, and the McAlister Mountain Range, adding to its allure.

The Space:
As you enter through the secure entry foyer, accessed via a traditional gatehouse and magnificent Balinese solid timber doors, you'll immediately sense the exclusivity of this property. The spacious Master suite offers direct access to the stunning gardens, complemented by a wall of robes and an oversized bathroom featuring double vanity, wet room shower, and luxurious marble and stone finishes.

The modern galley kitchen is a chef's dream, complete with high-end stainless-steel appliances, a 900mm freestanding gas cooktop and oven, solid granite benchtops, a plumbed double fridge, and a breakfast and cocktail bar. The layout is perfect for entertaining on a grand scale, with ample cabinetry and pantry space.

The penthouse is equipped with ducted and zoned air conditioning, new ceiling fans, LED light fittings, a full-size laundry with Miele appliances, and ample storage throughout. The uninterrupted panoramic views of the ocean, mountain ranges, and Palm Cove create an enchanting backdrop.

Outside, the private tropical gardens, manicured lawns, water features, and two large patio terraces create a serene oasis for relaxation. Stone walls frame the property, offering rare and exclusive outdoor living space. Gated secure underground parking for three cars are also included with the apartment.

Direct elevator service takes you to your front door, accessed through a private atrium and courtyard. The resident-only shared courtyards, private gardens, sun terrace, and barbecue area feature a cliff-top swimming pool overlooked by a Balinese stone gazebo, providing breathtaking views.

This magnificent apartment is truly one of a kind, offering a decadent lifestyle that many can only dream of. With its exceptional design, privacy, and breathtaking views, it stands as the jewel in the crown at Buchan Point, providing an unforgettable coastal retreat.
