By this stage, you’ve probably grown weary of hearing about another Sydney property that’s broken the local sales records. Justifiably so given the fact house after house has been offloaded for ridiculously inflated figures in recent years. But 39 Liguria Street in Maroubra is more than its eye-watering price tag.
Set upon 1,400 square metres of prime coastal real estate, this four-storey castle-like masterpiece – which just sold for $18.45 million after close to two years on the market; exceeding all local house price benchmarks by over 30% – redefines what it means to live by the sea. And I dare say you’d have nary an issue falling asleep with the soothing ambience provided by waves breaking over rocks form below.
Beyond the matter of geographical location alone, however, the sumptuous interior design rich with imported limestone and glass is truly a thing of beauty. Last updated back in 2004 by master builder Anthony Vassiliou and wife Despina, while some note it’s need of a refurb, from where we’re standing, it’s aged pretty well.

“I’m finding that more buyers are moving further down the coastline from your Bronte, Tamarama and Clovelly areas because those areas are increasingly busy and congested, and Maroubra offers more privacy and more space,” Ray White Eastern Beaches’ Nader Hotait told Domain.
“That said, this is an out-of-line sale that comes down to the land size, the location and the house.”
