A harmonic chord of classical contemporary class, this striking c1921 English Vernacular Revival Style Attic Villa has been seamlessly transformed throughout the years to create a spectacular 4 bedroom + study 2.5 bathroom family entertainer with separate studio and solar heated pool. Cleverly using the colour palette of the original leadlights to bold effect, while enhancing the period qualities with soft neutral tones, this solid brick beauty was originally extended in the 1970s bringing out the best of its grand proportions, attic charm and entertaining prowess, and then cosmetically enhanced in more recent years to create a dynamic showpiece of family brilliance. On 697sqm approx, this gorgeous home is welcomed by a honed bluestone elevated porch, with the bluestone theme continuing through the ground floor; a magical downstairs main bedroom (bay window, custom Spotted Gum wardrobes and a chic stone ensuite), a gracious sitting room with open fireplace; home hub study with adjoining powder room, designer laundry with ironing station, indoor clothes line & courtyard access; and north facing open plan living & dining with gas log fire and impressive solid Spotted Gum stone kitchen (Ilve 900mm stove, Fisher & Paykel dish drawers & integrated fridge/freezer, Zip tap, feature Spotted Gum ceiling). Bi-fold doors open to a tiered recycled timber deck in the landscaped garden beauty with an elevated solar heated pool surrounded by deck, a purpose-built studio with full bathroom - ideal as a home office, gymnasium or guest bedroom with rubber mat floors and a large workshop. Upstairs has a library in the staircase, 3 huge bedrooms (one with WIR, one with desk/storage, one with BIRs & terrace), a fabulous children's retreat with terrace and a matching bathroom. Charmed with high strapped ceilings and leadlights, this captivating abode is equipped with semi-industrial style sliding doors, ducted heating + ducted heating/refrigerated cooling, video intercom, a water tank, full irrigation and an auto gate to 3-car spaces plus reinforced trafficable grassy ramp creating a turning circle and extra car space in front of the house.
