2 Kulgoa Road, Bellevue Hill

"Willowbrook" offers a quintessential Australian indoor/outdoor lifestyle with a Hamptons-style ambience of laidback luxury... yet the handsome but unassuming street presence gives no indication of this family home's extravagant features. Expertly reinvented by a collaboration of leading architects Lawton Hurley with landscaping by renowned William Dangar and interiors by talented designer Lynda Kerry, this blue ribbon property's circa 1930 classic Georgian origins have been transformed into a contemporary family dream home of exceptional quality and beauty. Focused on easy living and lavish poolside entertaining, the sprawling layout offers acres of travertine, glass, oak and technology. Featuring soaring double height spaces and sunlight streaming in from every angle, this very versatile home opens out to idyllic balconies, decking, terraces, parterre garden, velvety level garden and a glass mosaic heated pool/spa with a sublime pool-house/cabana or guest suite with own travertine bathroom. The large central main foyer leads to 2 separate large formal/informal living rooms (with a double-sided fireplace between), bespoke library/sitting room, family meals area, fabulous granite gas kitchen (Viking Professional stove, Bosch 2nd oven, Miele dishwasher, lots of cupboards & soft closing drawers, walk in pantry, study nook) and a stunning alfresco sunroom/verandah with outdoor kitchen, plantation shutters, motorised blinds & ceiling mounted heaters for all-year round comfort. There are 5 king sized bedrooms with 5 ensuite bathrooms & ample robes - palatial master wing with large open sitting/study areas, walk in wardrobe & tumbled travertine double ensuite. Additional features include a double garage (internal access), guest powder room, internal laundry/utility room, high ceilings, American Oak floors, bespoke cabinetry, attic storage, ducted A/C, surround sound (in/out). Downstairs is a separate double rumpus room (every child's dream play area!), separate home-theatre, 8th travertine bathroom, a study/media room, store rooms, temperature controlled wine cellar & much much more. Quiet, private and desirably located, Willowbrook is set on a large sunny block, just minutes to the finest shopping/dining choices, top schools, golf courses, marinas and beaches.
