Sydney's always had a love affair with Pittwater, and now one of the best views of this magnificent area can be yours.

This spacious residence on the water's edge at Clareville will have you agreeing with the First Fleet Commander, Captain Arthur Phillip, who described it as "the finest piece of water I ever saw".

Cleverly designed over two levels by prominent architect Sean Gartner, it sits on a rare north-facing waterfront block at the tip of Taylors Point.

The tranquil landscaped gardens lead down a few steps to the beautiful boathouse and jetty. Waterfront living doesn't get any better than this.

With unrivalled views all the way to West Head and Lion Island, this house is all about living the dream. An indoor/outdoor lifestyle in a completely private setting.

The current owners love waking to the sounds of birds and lapping water, and being able to see the sunrise and sunset. They say it's like living on a boat.

With an impressive gourmet kitchen, 5 bedrooms and 3 beautiful bathrooms, this gorgeous property is perfect for holidays or as a home.

The vibrant shops and cafes of Avalon Beach are also close by.
