Is this the best house in Lysterfield?
It's hard not to be impressed with the most breathtaking views in Melbourne and a bespoke home that exudes sophistication and luxury.
Set on 2600sq m (approx) in the bowl of a court, no expense has been spared and every detail thought of.
Whether its enjoying cocktails on one of the balconies as the sun sets over Melbourne, frolicking with the family in the 16m indoor heated pool and spa, or enjoying a relaxing barbecue in the custom designed outdoor entertaining area, every possibility is catered for.
As you enter the house you'll immediately be blown away by the stunning double height foyer, with sweeping staircase and marble floors. In fact the imported marble floors runs right through the downstairs floor.
Formal entertaining can be done in the large lounge and dining room, which enjoys more stunning views out across the city.
For more relaxed entertaining, there is a long family room that faces the indoor pool, and is highlighted by a bespoke bar made from American Oak. The same oak is used in the custom entertainment unit in the adjoining theatre room. If a movie is not your thing, retire to the expansive terrace, or in winter you can fire up the large wood fireplace with granite surrounds.
Entertainers will love the oversized kitchen with plenty of granite benchtops and enough cupboards to keep everything out of sight. Storage won't be a problem with an adjoining walk-in pantry.
Enjoy meals in the dining area, or step outside to the undercover alfresco and barbecue area that is a cut above the rest. It features a built-in barbecue, granite benches, sink, wood oven and a commercial-grade charcoal spit and canopy.
Sleeping accommodation is well catered for, with five large bedrooms.
One is on the ground floor, with an ensuite and walk-in robe, and a large parents' retreat, making it perfect for guests.
The other four bedrooms are upstairs, including a king sized master with spacious walk-in robes and spa ensuite with bidet.
Another large bedroom also has a walk-in robe and ensuite, while the two other bedrooms feature built-in wardrobes, and are serviced by the guest spa with twin vanities, shower and relaxing elevated spa bath.
Entertaining on the first floor can be done in the lounge with wet bar, on the balcony facing the city, or the rear balcony large enough for a half tennis court.
The house backs onto farmland, meaning the gardens are private. Green thumbs will love the hothouse and small orchard area, or harvest the shiraz grapevines and olive trees for some tasty home produce. There's even a small chapel on the property.
Garaging will fit six cars, or use the space for a workshop or home-based business.
Other features include ducted heating and refrigerated cooling, alarm and intercom system, as well as electric gates for extra security.
