Exquisite interiors and enviable outdoor lifestyle in luxe Griffith parcel
Sitting majestically behind electric gates in a tranquil tree-lined enclave so close to Manuka this spectacular residence evokes timeless elegance and quintessential English charm. Following an exceptionally skilful three-year refined rebuild that melded highly appointed signature imported materials with high-end modern amenity, this breathtaking home is a liveable artform with luxurious sophistication.
With the double-brick heritage façade entirely restored, the remainder of the home has been rebuilt using more than 12,000 authentic old Canberra Red heritage bricks and cutting-edge thermal-breaking foundation blocks, which, when combined with imported triple-glazed Meranti windows and doors, now brings the home to an incredible *8.6-star energy rating, arguably the only Heritage home in Australia to hold this rating.
Every detail has been meticulously curated. Stunning Herringbone-laid oak floors, Perrin & Rowe brass tapware, handcrafted ceiling roses and marble finishes add classic and enduring beauty to the interiors, complemented by deep windowsills framing formal landscaped gardens.
The kitchen is a symphony of style, blending traditional and modern elements to create a beautiful lived-in look that still feels contemporary and practical. The butler's pantry is a standout for its apron-front sink and hand-crafted custom larder.
When combined with the adjacent 10-seat dining space and wall of full-height windows overlooking the plunge pool outside, it's easy to imagine family gatherings and entertaining guests that run long into the evening. A conveniently placed alfresco terrace off the kitchen meals area leads to an impressive outdoor kitchen with quality pizza oven.
The parents' suite, opposite the picture-perfect formal lounge with fireplace, is a rejuvenating retreat from it all. With walk-through wardrobe featuring a custom jewellery armoire with designer Aerin light, striking marble ensuite and a private office with triple aspect, this entire area can be conveniently closed off.
There's great separation from the remaining oversized bedrooms courtesy of a sizeable, sunny rumpus and an incredible luxurious family bathroom featuring a sumptuous roll-top bathtub.
The garaging is equally impressive, boasting a seldom-seen electric auto-stacker, allowing the voluminous two-car garage to house four cars plus one on-grade space at the front of the home. Positioned in a coveted walkable location close to elite schools, boutique shopping and inner-south dining hotspots, there's little to do but move in and enjoy your indulgent lifestyle surrounded by beautiful formal gardens.
