About this property
Villa St Helena a luxurious Byron Bay Hinterland estate perched on St Helena ridge overlooking Byron
This iconic double-storey masterpiece has been meticulously reconstructed over 24 months, showcasing modern, fresh and contemporary interiors, artwork, finishes and furniture. Timber-formed tiles, crisp white walls and abundant glass highlight the stunning lighthouse, ocean and Hinterland views, complemented by contemporary nautical themes with high-end furnishings and natural fibres.
Step through double timber doors, beyond immaculately manicured lawns, into an open-plan and light-filled downstairs space. Discover a Bosch butler's kitchen and dining area, dual living zones including a vast loggia with electric fireplace, 3 spacious bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and glass doors flowing to the generous outdoor entertaining area and magnificent cabana. Upstairs features an additional modern Bosch kitchen, open-plan living and dining spaces, and wraparound balconies facing both west and north, perfect for capturing stunning sunsets and breathtaking ocean and Hinterland panoramas. This level also includes 3 large, light-filled bedrooms, 2 bathrooms (1 ensuite and 1 guest bathroom with a huge stand-alone egg tub with views), plus a 4th bedroom with desk and queen bed.
Recently enhanced with further extensions, Villa St Helena is an entertainer's dream. Enjoy the huge covered outdoor entertaining space with Weber BBQ, sun loungers, outdoor seating and a large timber dining table with bench seats. The outdoor area overlooks the sparkling 25m x 5m inground swimming pool and spa, framed by expansive timber decking with comfortable sun loungers offering endless ocean and Hinterland views.
