135 Florence Terrace
Scotland Island, NSW 2105

Step into a world where time slows, nature surrounds, and every day feels like a holiday. This extraordinary waterfront property on Scotland Island offers more than just a home — it is a lifestyle for those who appreciate beauty, originality, and the magic of Pittwater.

Originally a Canadian white cedar ski lodge, relocated and adapted to its island setting, the residence exudes warmth and character. Handcrafted timbers, soaring spaces, and panoramic water views create a life of effortless charm, perfect for those who value something unique and a little alternative.

The double fronted block is unusual for Scotland Island and provides numerous benefits including distance from neighbours and a floorplan that sweeps across the land, maximising views and space.

Spanning two levels, the house is designed to embrace both privacy and togetherness. The ground-floor parents’ retreat is a sanctuary unto itself, complete with lounge area and walk-in robe. Upstairs, a self-contained guest suite with separate entry welcomes visiting friends or family with its own lounge, kitchenette, and sun-drenched deck. A third bedroom, equally generous, gazes out across the water.

The main lounge, featuring a grand combustion fireplace, invites long winter evenings by the fire, while the country-style kitchen and dining space are made for convivial dinners with friends. Multiple decks frame sweeping views across Pittwater to Newport, ideal for long lunches or watching the ever-changing moods of Pittwater.

A separate office provides the perfect space to write, paint, or simply reflect, while a combined sauna and steam pavilion offers restorative calm after a swim or paddle. Below the home, an expansive workshop, storage area, and even a darkroom provide versatile spaces that creatives and tinkerers truly appreciate.

Set on 1,250 square meters of lush, established grounds, the property feels like a private tropical escape. Wander through sandstone-paved paths, tend to vegetables in the enclosed garden, or relax with a book in the dappled shade. Every turn of the garden tells its own story.

At the water’s edge lies a beautifully rustic boatshed with lounge area and loft-style bedroom — the perfect studio, retreat, or guest escape. From here, step onto wide sandstone terraces that flow seamlessly to your private deepwater jetty and pontoon. The freedom to set sail at a moment’s notice, or simply sit with a glass of wine and watch the boats go by, is yours to enjoy.

The property also includes a private mooring out the front, complementing the deep water jetty — ideal for enjoying the waterfront lifestyle of Pittwater in a unique and comprehensive way. Power is available on the jetty.

With a dedicated berth and parking space at a Church Point Marina (monthly fees apply), the mainland is always within easy reach, ensuring convenience without compromise. While most commuter boat berthing and car parking locations have extensive waiting lists, this property comes with the perfect solution already in place.
