Discover a world of tranquillity with an exceptionally executed large modern residence set on a substantial allotment. This impressive family home, with an added studio/apartment is situated in the serene tree lined quiet part of this highly coveted and desirable hinterland street with sweeping district views carrying you across the to the coast and ocean beyond.
Contemporary, chic and designed to showcase the spectacular hinterland and ocean views as well as facilitate casual, relaxed living... Excellence in design, space and thoughtfully modernised for the most astute buyer. The residence is set back from the road and immersed in park-like grounds (designed by the renowned Michael Cooke), evoking a feeling of warmth, comfort and of coming home.
On a lush 5850m2 block, the home is complete with four bedrooms, two luxury bathrooms, central galley style kitchen, two separate living areas, expansive timber decking and outdoor entertainment areas', impressive entrance/portico, separate apartment and lock up car parking for 4 vehicles plus workshop and additional caravan/boat port. With opulent interiors, featuring soaring cathedral ceilings the feeling of space, light and comfort exude effortlessly from every corner of the residence.
The garden spaces are truly divine. Designed by Michael Cooke, renowned landscape designer and author of "Disobedient Gardens", Michael is a specialist landscape designer producing a limited number of exclusive design projects each year. Fusing formal design with informal mass plantings, the combination of colours and textures of the gardens invoke a feeling of calm and space. There are a number of zones to enjoy, including raised vegetable gardens, and a myriad of mature fruit trees (mandarin, lemon, and avocado to name a few). A separate "luxury" chicken coop (no less!), and a run, enable the best of country coastal lifestyle requirements.
The expansive living spaces, high ceilings and an abundance of glass invite in sunshine and frame the "forever" views. The seamless indoor and outdoor living concept is further enhanced by the large stacking glass doors lining the northeast facing entertainment zones that gently transition from inside to out. A large inverted flyover roof provides shade and protection over the outdoor meals area, with the adjacent arbour and its green cover of jasmine dappling light and providing yet another entertainment area. On the western end of the home is an additional flagged sandstone paved entertainment area, complete with outdoor kitchen and barbeque. The flagged sandstone is featured across the outdoor areas, from the stairs on to the central lawn area, and paths throughout the gardens.
The well designed floor plan that not only maximises the sweeping views, but facilitates separation of living and creates great versatility of purpose with the separate one bedroom apartment, connected seamlessly by the recently completed expansive decking and outdoor entertaining areas'. Whether used as guest accommodation, or a separate work from home office/area, the "studio apartment" provides a multitude of additional uses, complete with an oversized bathroom with freestanding bath and separate toilet. The additional meal preparation area, with an induction cooktop and dishwasher compliments the space making it a truly "standalone" living and/or work zone.
Inside the gorgeous home, the large central galley style kitchen lies at its heart. Caesar stone benches and white shaker style cabinets effortlessly invite you to sit down at the oversized island bench. The large 900mm freestanding induction cooktop and electric oven is complemented by the second built in oven, along with a stainless steel Liebherr side by side fridge and freezer, large scale entertaining is embraced with its impressive design. The separate wine and cocktail bar directly opposite the kitchen, complete with the under bench wine fridge and glass door back lit cabinetry, make for ideal separation yet convenience of space.
There are 3 well appointed bedrooms, and a separate office/4th bedroom inside the expansive home. The large master suite, complete with a separate walk-in robe and a glorious free standing bath in the large ensuite providing the ultimate parents retreat with space and privacy. The large family bathroom is in close proximity to the guest bedrooms.
There is also an additional powder room separated from the open plan living and dining zone by a spectacular barn style door that also encompasses the modern renovated laundry area with easy access to the outdoor decking area.
