Subscribe to regular market updates. Tucked away in the prestigious and peaceful cul-de-sac of Sarah Crescent, this breathtaking sanctuary sees European-inspired gardens meet timeless architectural design. Set on a beautifully landscaped acre of European-style gardens, this single-level residence is both grand in scale and intimate in feel—crafted for those who appreciate fine design and love to entertain on a grand scale. At its heart, the bespoke kitchen is a culinary masterpiece. Reminiscent of a high-end Mediterranean cucina, it features a 1220mm American Wolf double oven with teppanyaki and grill plates, a powerful Qasair rangehood with triple motors and twin dishwashers, for effortless entertaining. Polished Carrara marble benches, a hand-crafted English Shaws farmhouse sink, French-pattern travertine floors, and feature skylights complete the experience. The butler’s pantry continues the refined theme, with motion-sensor lighting, a filtered/boiling Billi water system, a second farmhouse sink, and generous storage. For the entertainer, the fully-equipped wet bar is in a league of its own—accommodating over 500 bottles with a commercial-grade wine and beer keg system, dual beverage fridges, and a second Billi water tap with boiling water/chilled/sparkling water. American oak herringbone floors provide a warm, stylish foundation throughout the living spaces. Unwind beside one of two Heat & Glo gas fireplaces, both framed by limestone mantels and black granite hearths. The living and lounge areas are bathed in ambiance, with automated roman blinds and soft LED pelmet lighting enhancing the relaxed, elegant mood. The master suite is a true retreat. Morning light filters through a charming bay window, while automated curtains frame your evenings in peace. A marble-topped dressing vanity with ambient LED lighting leads to a luxurious ensuite featuring dual rainfall showers, a freestanding Victoria & Albert bath, Carrara marble finishes, a smart toilet, and thoughtful touches like sensor night lights and plantation shutters. Children’s quarters are equally refined, with three generously sized bedrooms, a central marble-appointed bathroom with a freestanding Victoria & Albert bath, and a sunlit powder room. Outdoors, the lifestyle continues. A full-size floodlit tennis court and manicured grounds surround the summer house—designed for long-table gatherings yet flexible enough to serve as a self-contained retreat for independent teenagers, extended family, or elderly parents. Additional features include twin commercial-grade multi-zone reverse cycle air conditioning and heating, ensuring year-round comfort with energy-efficient climate control across all living zones. Dual electric gates offer both security and grandeur upon arrival. A circular driveway provides ample off-street parking and effortless access for guests, and spectacular garden lighting brings the grounds to life after dark. For the security conscious, this home includes comprehensive CCTV and security system, ensuring peace of mind at all times. An enviable secure four car garage, with extensive built-in cabinetry, is ideal for the avid car enthusiasts or families with multiple luxury vehicles.
