Privately nestled beside the Southern Great Barrier Reef overlooking Honeymoon Bay and the surrounding Pacific Ocean, this luxury pavilion style residence was created with minimal impact on its natural environment to give the sense of floating above the ocean. 

Named ‘Alinghi’, the home sits within the approx. 5ha estate Rocky Point, sharing a private beach at Honeymoon Bay, a 30-metre saltwater pool by the ocean, entertaining cabana with barbecue facilities, tennis court and full-time caretaker on-site.

'Alinghi' is for sale for $6,500,00.

“Alinghi Beach House was designed by award-winning Australian architect James Grose, and has been voted ‘One Of The World’s Top Five Beach Houses’ by the UK Independent,” Michael Vettoretto told LUXURY LIST WEEKEND.

“This hidden luxury escape floats against the cliffs of North Queensland’s Capricorn Coast. Positioned just metres from the beach, it is nestled amongst approx. 14 acres of native bush. Its slick entertaining areas are accompanied by jaw-dropping views and the sound of crashing waves.”

The home comprises two pavilions. The main pavilion has large living spaces opening onto semi-enclosed areas, as well as four large bedrooms, including two with ensuites plus a separate bathroom upstairs for the other two bedrooms.

The second pavilion is a private retreat featuring a master bedroom plus ensuite and study or wellness space with striking ocean views and framed with soft native landscaped gardens.

One stunning feature of the design is the large travertine platform creating an anchor of both buildings and framed by shallow reflection pools.

External materials and colours were specifically chosen to disappear over time, fading to a silver grey to blend with the landscape. Western red cedar clads the exterior of the house, selected for its hardy and low maintenance elements, to fade with exposure to the sun.

The home is self-sufficient for water with tanks collecting abundant rainfall, whilst clever design allowing for cross-ventilation and the position of the house combine to allow cool ocean breezes to freely flow.

Purposely designed, Alinghi’s external lighting is all low voltage so as not to upset local wildlife, in particular nesting turtles who return to Rocky Point to breed. Wallabies, echidnas, goannas, turtles, and migratory whales plus a diverse range of birds are plentiful.

Alinghi is situated 5 minutes’ drive from the relaxed main village of Agnes Water, with a selection of restaurants, cafes, grocery shops and boutique stores and the 1770 Marina from where you can explore the reef by boat or take fishing tours. 

The town is approximately 1.5-hours’ drive north of Bundaberg, where regular flights provide easy access from major cities.
