8 Squadron Court, Lindfield

'Villa Francesca' is a timeless vision of family luxury. A truly magnificent home, rendered to perfection within what is arguably this postcode's most tightly held street. In the widely publicised land release of Lindfield Heights Estate in 2005, this was one of the finest parcels offered - a 1,207sqm block favourably placed to be awash in north-east sunshine, while enjoying serene outlooks over the natural reserve. Inspired by classical European architecture, the home was custom-built by Charleston Homes to a finish of the highest order. The lobby and formal living space is grand in scale and style, defined by soaring ceilings reaching 5.6m, and imported marble flooring. Carved from granite, the gourmet island kitchen is a work of art unto itself, while the media lounge and day lounge combine with swimming pool and Mediterranean fruiting garden - a spectacular entertaining setting which has catered for parties of up to 200 pax. Above all else, this is a spectacular sanctuary for busy executives and families, who value their privacy and serenity when home. The floorplan provides four deluxe bedrooms plus a first-class home office, smartly positioned for an easy conversion into Bedroom 5, when required. Adding to the home's mystique, hand-picked art pieces have been sourced from around the globe and woven into the fabric of the home - let's see if you can spot them. Just one block from Queen Elizabeth Reserve and local village shops, this address is located for ease of access to acclaimed schools, Killara Golf Club and business precincts at Chatswood and Macquarie Park, while only five minutes' drive from Lindfield Station.
