One of Sydney’s most anticipated boutique developments is now complete, setting a new benchmark for luxury living on the lower north shore.

Meticulously crafted, Casa Neutral Bay is a sanctuary of just eight homes, located in Neutral Bay’s exclusive Ben Boyd Rd precinct, and ideally located between Sydney Harbour and the shopping village.

Designed by Mathieson Architects, the homes have been cleverly future-proofed for local downsizers, featuring private internal lifts and level access from oversized double garaging.

The last chance to secure a residence is on September 24, when the final three are brought to market with Geoff Smith and Geoff Allan from Ray White Lower North Shore.

Residence G04/76 Ben Boyd Rd is a garden oasis looking out through the neighbouring tree canopy to the glittering lights of the North Sydney CBD.

With three bedrooms (each opening to a balcony), open-plan living, an outdoor dining terrace and a level, secure lawn, the home is perfect for entertaining, Mr Smith said.

“The home has been designed to prioritise accessibility,” he said, “and it offers access directly to the living level via a locked lift.”

Apartment 102, alive with natural light, is “the jewel in the crown,” Mr Smith said.

The three-bedroom luxury residence offers multi-aspects from east to west, with strategic northern windows filtering all-day sun.

“Consumed by the bright lights of the North Sydney cityscape, a wall of stacker doors allows for a seamless connection to the view and entertaining terrace,” Mr Smith said.

Boasting a pitched raised ceiling, the lounge room is anchored by custom joinery and natural stone surrounding a gas fireplace, with a showroom kitchen, a six-star hotel suite Master and huge entertaining terrace.

Residence 103 focuses on privacy and modern liveability, Mr Smith said, with its own lower-level garden oasis.

“It is a home with 331sqm on title,” he said, “a natural entertainer, the dining space sits alongside a stone kitchen island offering relaxed bar-style seating.”

All properties feature custom oak joinery, with kitchens seamlessly integrated with Gaggenau 400 series cooking appliances, Liebherr refrigerators and Miele dishwashers.

All three properties will be auctioned on-site on September 24 at 5 pm.

You can inspect between 2:15pm and 3:15pm on Wednesdays and Saturdays.
