Welcome to 184 Lakelands Drive in Gnangara, a French provincial-inspired four-bedroom, three-bathroom luxury (plus study, powder room) property like no other - positioned on 2.5 acres of lush bore-reticulated lawns and gardens.
This magnificent property showcases bespoke design elements incorporating materials sourced both locally and abroad, including reclaimed timber from the Geographe and York regions, intricate European wrought-iron entry doors and a copper finial custom-designed in the United States.
Approach the property via rustic, rough-sawn timber entry gates beneath a delightful arbor, noticing the verdant gardens and impressive water feature as you ascend the circular concierge driveway. The home boasts an earthy limestone-rendered elevation, with stone-clad piers, gables and grand feature turret. The double 'barn door' timber garage with rivets adds to the rustic provincial ambience and houses three cars.
Hundreds of square metres of magnificent European Oak flooring flow throughout each of the home's living spaces, with each area lit by incredible imported candelabra and pendant lighting fabricated from a mix of wrought iron and timbers. Natural light floods the central, open-plan living area, with wall-to-wall windows and timber stacking doors providing a picturesque outlook to the resort-style alfresco, stunning mosaic-tiled pool and spa, and surrounding lawns and gardens. In the cooler months, you'll love relaxing by the stone-clad gas fireplace in the expansive family living area, overlooking stunning flood-lit gardens.
No expense has been spared in the design of the jaw-dropping, 'shaker' style kitchen and scullery. The island bench features a 4 metre solid, reclaimed railway timber top, custom-designed double sink and double-drawer Fisher and Paykel dishwasher. Extensive soft-closing, white cabinetry has a relaxed 'Hamptons' feel, with chrome half-shell handles, Caesar Stone benches and gleaming pendant lighting over the island bench. Top-of-the-range stainless steel Smeg appliances include a 1.5 metre oven and 7-burner cooktop and rangehood, and the double fridge recess is plumbed.
Two queen-sized minor bedrooms and a sophisticated guest suite offer built-in robes and are serviced by an elegant bathroom and a powder room showcasing 600x600 floor-to-ceiling wall and floor tiling, frameless showers with rainhead fixtures and ornate mirrors. The glamour king-sized master suite features a spectacular crystal chandelier, huge walk-in robe/dressing room wall-to-wall windows and french doors opening out to a tranquil outdoor sitting area. The luxe ensuite would easily rival that of any luxury resort, with a gorgeous freestanding bathtub, crystal chandelier, floor-to-ceiling feature tiling, double vanity with round porcelain basins and a built-in dressing table.
The main alfresco incorporates a rough-sawn timber-lined ceiling, travertine paving and a unique windmill-style ceiling fan. You'll love entertaining year-round in this space, which features a 6-burner built-in BBQ, sink and double bar fridge. Enjoy the alluring mosaic-tiled saltwater pool and spa throughout the year, with a 24KW electric heat pump keeping it the perfect temperature. 5000sqm of lush lawn provides an idyllic location for large gatherings such as birthday parties, weddings and other occasions, with plenty of room for marquees.
