14 Winifred Grove, Blairgowrie

This outstanding home has an aesthetic of simplicity, comfort, and thoughtfully refined detail with many handmade and quirky elements that spark joy. In working with the elevated site, the architect Esther Sugihto, along with the owner’s creative input, has created a unique home with flexible accommodation over three levels. With two well-defined and fully self-contained living spaces, this property is ideal for multi-generational living, holiday getaways, or as a lucrative short-stay rental. There are two fully self-contained living spaces. The light filled central living zone consists of a split level, open plan kitchen, dining, and living space with feature gas log fireplace, which flows out to a spacious and superbly elevated deck. There is a powder room, a handy mud room with outdoor access, and a separate study/ workshop and storage area. Upstairs, an indulgent main bedroom retreat with free standing bath, has a private deck for quiet lounging and an ensuite bathroom with water glimpses, all inviting complete relaxation. The enchanting “Kookaburra” accommodation offers a private hideaway for family or guests with its cosy open plan living space including a gas log fireplace, a compact kitchen, and bifold doors out to a decked outdoor relaxation zone. Below, a serene bedroom, with generous free standing bath and ensuite bathroom complete this haven of tranquillity. High above the trees, a separate bedroom/studio/ home office with ensuite bathroom and its own viewing deck offers mesmerising views of water and ever changing sky. Each level of accommodation is privately zoned, with their own elevated vantage points from which to view the wide open vistas over the surrounding treetops, toward the dunes of the Ocean beach, across to Arthurs Seat, and teasing glimpses of the sparkling waters of the Bay. Visually interesting, with a combination of materials, and surrounded by the enveloping green of mature coastal landscaping, this well built and well maintained property offers a relaxed lifestyle for those who will appreciate its singular appeal. Whether as a distinctive holiday escape or a proven short-term rental asset, this home is a rare offering with unmatched appeal.
