10 Thistle Court Newport

With a vast vista overlooking the canal, this Newport property is a unique opportunity to claim a slice of paradise.

Positioned in one of the best streets on the Peninsula and sitting on one of the area’s largest blocks, the home is on the high-mast side of the bridge, allowing the owners to take their pick of yachts.

One Agency Redcliffe owner and principal Stephan Siegfried says the light-filled home takes full advantage of its position, with bi-fold doors opening the living area to the outdoors.

“The whole back of the house opens up to the entertaining deck, which is covered and has shade sails,” Stephan says.

“There are stunning views and the home has been designed to take advantage of that – the living areas and kitchen look out over the canal and the master bedroom does too.”

Loads of features

Upstairs is home to the master bedroom, complete with a large ensuite and spa, generous walk-in robes and its own balcony, as well as another bedroom or office with an adjoining powder room.

At ground level there are a further two bedrooms and a spacious laundry filled with storage options– but the star of the show is the living space.

There are two alfresco areas, a deck, a swimming pool and a well-appointed kitchen complete with pantry.

“It’s an amazing find – even in a quieter market such a rare piece of real estate is highly sought after,” Stephan says.
