Luxury developer Tim Gurner and his wife Aimee have put their 500sqm luxury, two-storey, four- bedroom 'wellness' residence at the developer’s own Saint Moritz project on the market.
Featuring soaring 6m high ceilings and remarkable finishes, it was initially retained when the building was first launched.
The illustrious development is considered one of the most desirable and exclusive residential locations in Australia with priceless views of the St Kilda foreshore and an unprecedented dedication to private amenity and wellness facilities.

The residence takes luxury living to a whole new level, with a focus on wellness, luxury of space and ultimate opulence.
The property offers four bedrooms, five bathrooms and a six-car garage, and is one of approximately 20 Saint Moritz residences that sit directly facing the shimmering bay offering floor-to-ceiling water views, with private lift access.
The interiors have been completely customised and designed personally by Tim and Aimee, who is an interior designer, in consultation with the GURNERTM design team, to complement the building’s curvilinear beach-side aesthetic which was initially brought to life by architects Fender Katsalidis, Koichi Takada and interior designer David Hicks.

Over $500,000 worth of Italian stone and marble including Calacatta Gold, Nero Marquina and Travertine frame the interiors from the custom kitchen island through to the custom-designed cabinetry and joinery, while Venetian polished plaster walls and fully integrated appliances elevate this impeccable property.

The second living and entertaining space showcases a bespoke billiards table complete with custom finishes and design detailing, while the secluded games lounge is equipped with a kitchenette featuring integrated Liebherr and Vintec refrigeration.
A curvaceous custom designed helical staircase leading to the second storey is another stand-out feature, finished in polished plaster with a custom brass floating handrail and feature LED lighting; the staircase cost $500,000 to install, making for an astounding first impression.
The master suite occupies almost the entire top floor, complete with a custom $120,000 sauna in the grand ensuite, an expansive walk-in robe, separate study and stunning private living retreat with an open fireplace to soak up the bay views.

“ We took inspiration from around the globe and then pushed it even further with the on-site amenity and dedication to wellness at Samsara. The result is like having your own private-day spa retreat downstairs. These unique and truly incomparable elements led to the insatiable demand when Saint Moritz first went to market."
"My wife Aimee and I worked closely with our GURNER design team to create a residence that represents the most luxurious elements of modern life, while taking the Saint Moritz experience to another level yet again."

The benefits of infra-red saunas are incredible and I incorporate the practice into my own daily routine, so we included the custom sauna to the master suite upstairs."
"After living through COVID, we as a community have turned to more intimate dining and entertaining with friends so the custom bar, games lounge and billiards table make the most of this incredible residence – why go out when the new owner can entertain guests at home while Port Phillip Bay shimmers in the foreground.'
"My favourite element of the residence has to be the incredibly rare and sought after double height living and dining space that open up to the incredible bay and water views, which offer a front row seat to some of the most breathtaking sunsets I have ever seen."
"Due to the investment into quality, rarity, luxury and the lived experience in both this residence and Saint Moritz, we are expecting interest from both local and international buyers,” Gurner concluded.
