Former Block contestants Mitch Edwards and Mark McKie have listed their luxury Newport home for sale, showcasing their exceptional design flair and renovation expertise.
The interior design duo spent the past year renovating the Newport property, turning what they once called a “70s hot mess” into a high-end coastal sanctuary, now on the market with LJ Hooker Mona Vale.
Mitch and Mark have lived in the property for five years, enjoying sweeping 280-degree ocean views from every level, offering both privacy and uninterrupted coastal panoramas.
LJ Hooker Mona Vale agent Josephine Cowling, who is selling the home alongside Kylie Segedin, said buyers have been captivated by the property – even before realising who owned it.
“As soon as I walked into the home for the first time, it was ‘wow’. I was greeted by a high level of finish and was immediately drawn to the view,” she said.
“Everyone who has attended an inspection has just loved it and its faultless attention to detail. The home has a view that hugs you – it doesn’t just capture the beach; you look around, and the vistas are stretching to the city. You can’t see any other homes, so it just feels like your own private sanctuary.
“It just offers something for everyone. Mitch and Mark trusted that we believe in this property and know that we are committed agents who know this market and have repeat referrals.”
The five-bedroom home showcases the pair’s signature style, with a striking marble staircase making an immediate impression upon entry.
Open-plan living and dining areas are anchored by a gas fireplace framed in marble, with engineered timber flooring and seamless access to an alfresco entertaining terrace.
The gourmet kitchen features a stone island breakfast bar, multiple ovens, integrated appliances, a fully equipped butler’s pantry, and a hidden wine cellar.
The master suite is designed as a private retreat, complete with a fireplace, a grand walk-in robe with feature lighting, and a luxurious ensuite boasting a freestanding bath, underfloor heating, and brushed gold tapware.
A self-contained lower level offers additional flexibility, with open-plan living, a kitchenette, two bedrooms, and a private deck, which is ideal for guests, teenagers, or extended family.
In addition to a lock-up garage, the property provides off-street parking for four vehicles, a rare feature in this sought-after Northern Beaches enclave.
With dual access and a flawless blend of sophistication and relaxed coastal living, the home is perfectly suited as either a permanent residence or a fully furnished weekend retreat.
