Swing wide the auto-gates, wander down the long private drive, find towering design and serious wow-factor in this one-off Owners Corporation-free home! A rare two-storey rear home with a remarkable solar-passive design, this bold three bedroom, 2.5 bathroom residence maximises summer breezes and winter sun with north-facing living on two levels, flow-though to courtyards front and rear, and an entertainers' deck shaded by an auto-awning. With an in-demand ground-floor master-suite, this clever design puts a chef's kitchen (with Bosch induction cooktop and Siemens integrated dishwasher) at the heart of living and fitted workspaces on each level – one an easily-overseen home-office.A showcase of hand-selected fittings and finishes with Brazilian Riverstone topping the massive island-bench and floor-to-ceiling porcelain tiling for the bathroom and dual-vanity ensuite, the home features solid Silvertop Ash floors extending to a custom-crafted glass-edge stair, and excellent storage including walk-in-robe, designer pantry and understair storage. Even the energy-efficiencies have a designer edge with sculptural moveable louvers for the upper level, die-cut screening for the water-tank, and walls of double-glazing and e-glass at every turn. With individual climate-control and ceiling fans for every room, surround-sound wiring for each level, alarm and video-entry for security, and ducted vacuum with kitchen kick-sweep for absolute ease, this remarkable rear home even enjoys the benefit of abundant parking including a double garage (with workshop area) on the private exposed aggregate drive. A walk to Charman Rd's station and shopping strip, a minute to the Mentone schools and in-Zone for Beaumaris and Mentone Girls Colleges, this is a Towering two-storey opportunity!
