Do you remember playing with your mother's-or grandmother's or great-grandmother's-button box or jar or tin? The impulse to collect is a basic part of the human psyche, and buttons have been admired and collected for centuries.
There is something about the time invested, the love celebrated, the meaningful sorting, the functional value or just the sheer enjoyment and relaxation the collection of buttons can give.
80 Ebden Street Ainslie is a home where many memories (and buttons) have been collected, much time has been spent with family and friends, a home that has created a haven for enjoyment and relaxation, with a thoughtful and function value.
You connect with the functional value of the home the moment you step inside; it feels just right. Brilliantly conceived to capture contemporary living and a modern lifestyle, the breathtaking residence is a substantial 289m (including garage). Delivering a highly sought after blend of indoor and outdoor living and entertaining, formal and informal spaces interchange easily with flexible functionality. With superb detailing and attention to every aspect of the design, the home includes a gourmet kitchen central to the living space boasting stone benches, stainless steel appliances, and generous well designed storage. The kitchen overlooks light filled open plan living spaces which flow through glass doors and integrate effortlessly with the outdoor entertaining and the beautiful landscaped gardens.
Accommodation consists of open plan living, lounge and dining room, four large bedrooms, all with built in robes, the main bedroom retreat with generous en suite and walk in robe, large laundry and storage room. The fifth bedroom offers many possibilities adaptable as a home office, study, media room or for extended family. Enhanced by the north aspect and clever orientation of the home on the 780m allotment, the fully landscaped gardens, alfresco areas, established trees and lawn, kitchen gardens and utility areas with water tank makes the most of the suburban lifestyle. And....it is unmistakably an Ainslie home when complete with a fig tree.
Just as the function of the button can influence the beauty of the dress, this sophisticated and stylish Blackett home is a timeless piece.
