A masterpiece of architectural innovation and interior design,'The Whale House' presents a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity in one of Sydney's most prestigious oceanside enclaves.

Expertly crafted throughout with a superb attention to detail, the property's high-end minimalist theme is anchored by stunning in-situ concrete formwork with wood grain detailing.
