Tucked away in secluded Wattle Park lies this extraordinary, fully refurbished grand home offering the peace and serenity of country living just a 12-minute drive from the CBD.
This exceptional architecturally designed family home sits on a 824 sqm (approx.) block and is truly one of a kind, with magnificent views from every vantage point of the adjacent bushland and Bell Yett Reserve.
Built in 2003, a beautiful renovation was completed early in 2024, leaving the home
brimming with incredible features and functionality and every need carefully catered to.
Beyond the electronic gates, a delightful manicured garden leads visitors to the front door where they will be left in awe of the stunning entrance hallway with formal dining to the left and an enviable study or lounge room to the right, complete with bay window and unsurpassed views of the park.
The heart and soul of the home lies at the rear of the lower level and revolves around a kitchen designed for entertaining. It boasts two vast Corian benchtops complete with their own dishwashers, one a showpiece island in its own right. Cook up a storm with your Asko induction cooktop and dual Asko ovens, one featuring a Pyrolytic steam oven and warming drawer. There is a fully integrated Liebherr fridge freezer and Zip HydroTaps for instant boiled, chilled or sparkling water. A walk-in pantry includes an extra sink, multi-function Bosch microwave oven and additional storage, while the cabinetry has an industrial-grade 2Pac finish.
The kitchen overlooks the meals area and family room with spectacular views of the gorgeous solar-heated swimming pool and two-level rear courtyard with wood oven and granite benches.
The meals area opens out onto an undercover alfresco dining space above the pool packed with every creature comfort - full kitchen facilities, built-in Lifestyle barbecue, lounge, heating and overhead fan while all protected by automated eZIP blinds for maximum privacy.
Time to relax and watch a movie? You won't need a ticket for this theatre with a giant TV, roll down projector screen and fully integrated audio visual. Or for a change of pace, why not head downstairs and shoot some pool or darts while enjoying a drink in your private character-filled bar and cellar?
Ascend the imposing Jarrah and Tasmanian Oak wrought-iron staircase to arrive at the regal accommodation level with stately landing and four double bedrooms, each with breathtaking views of the surrounds from their own balconies.
The primary bedroom features an ensuite that is truly out of this world! Luxury fittings include a heated towel rail, bidet, dual basins, Rinnai temperature-controlled hot water and a shower window with one-way glass and privacy screen so you can enjoy the view as you wash. There is also an extensive walk-in robe with storage island, abundant floor to ceiling cupboards and two windows for natural light and fresh air.
The second bedroom has its own ensuite while a bathroom with large tub services the remaining bedrooms. All have spacious built-ins. Just when you think you've seen it all, climb the spiral Jarrah staircase to discover a charming attic. Currently used as a private study, it would also make an ideal teenage retreat.
A two-minute drive in either direction takes you to Wattle Park or Erindale Shopping Centres with Burnside Village and The Parade just a few minutes further away.
Just a short walk to St Peter's Girls' School or a quick drive to Pembroke School while also being zoned for Burnside Primary School and Norwood International High School.
