Last Listing description (February 2026)

FIND. Commanding one of the Northern Beaches' most spectacular coastal settings and known locally as the Freshwater Turret House, this architect-designed landmark holds an absolute oceanfront position on Freshwater Headland. Created by Ross Cameron Graham 27 years ago and cherished by one family since, it stands as both a private sanctuary and an enduring part of Freshwater's coastal story defined by its sculptural turret, bespoke detailing and uninterrupted views across the Pacific.

LOVE. An expansive living zone unfolds to a wide entertainer's terrace framing a dazzling ocean panorama, while intimate turret nooks offer cosy spaces for quiet moments.
