Built pre-1947 and meticulously renovated in 2023 to showcase timeless refinement, this four-bedroom prestige home feels like an exclusive sanctuary set amongst a vibrant urban enclave. Made wonderfully private by lush tropical gardens and intelligent design details, this dual-level property with spectacular entertainment options and beautiful interiors is a true masterpiece.

Reminiscent of a luxury resort, the residence has been thoughtfully updated to respect its original character while creating a thoroughly modern setting. Capturing exceptional natural light, the home is presented with tongue-in-groove aged European oak floors, lofty ceilings, exposed timber beams, integrated joinery, plantation shutters and VJ walls. Skylights and a crisp white colour palette also create a bright and airy atmosphere throughout, exuding a sense of liveable luxury.

Designed to centre around the verdant front yard, the home features a spacious open-plan living and dining area on its upper level that seamlessly links via secured glass doors to a front deck. Boasting retractable screens that can be opened to encourage optimal airflow and light, this welcoming central space adjoins an immaculate gourmet kitchen displaying a breakfast bar, Taj Mahal Quarzite leather stone benchtops, a butler's pantry and ample custom soft-close cupboard storage. This fantastic culinary space is also equipped with premium Franke sinks, brushed nickel tapware and a Vintec wine fridge, plus an integrated fridge/freezer, dishwasher and rangegood. A suite of Bosch appliances includes a 900-millimetre oven and a gas cooktop.

Finishing the upper level, a lavish master suite encompasses a custom floor-to-ceiling robe. An ensuite is made opulent by a Zuster-designed American Oak vanity with dual basins, which also offers mirror storage with travertine tiling.

Transporting you to your own private oasis, a covered front deck with plentiful al fresco entertainment space leads down to a fully-fenced grassed front yard. Framed by palm-dotted gardens and an illuminated stone feature wall dating back to 1896, this enviable outdoor area also has a covered patio and low-light-resistant Tahoma 31 lawn.

Downstairs there is also two sizeable bedrooms with built-in robes and patio access. A second living space has ample storage and a hidden laundry with bi-fold doors. An immaculate and beautifully-designed bathroom services this space.
