The custom designed dwelling appears understated, a modern interpretation of conventional Australian heritage design. Brick walls are adorned with timber awnings over the windows and the tiled roof extends across wide verandahs supported by painted timber posts and balustrades finished in rich heritage colours.
Solid timber doors with decorative leadlight panels open in to the generous entry foyer where the intricate attention to detail is revealed. High 2.8m ceilings with plaster rosette s coupled with ornate cornices are throughout the entire home.
Wide moulded architraves embellished with corbels over arched openings connect the entry to the surrounding rooms.
The large games room across the front feels light and airy with two sets of floor to ceiling bay windows allowing natural light to penetrate. A games room wouldn t be complete without a Bar , conveniently in the adjacent room. Custom designed and built for the home from Jarrah with the leadlight glass panels, it accentuates the heritage atmosphere of the home.
The private home office/study takes prime position, off the entry foyer. A box bay window frames views over the front gardens and built-in seating cleverly doubles for additional storage. Surge protected electrical outlets ensure electronic devices are safe at all times for extra peace of mind. The space is activated by natural light, creating a productive work environment.
Secluded away at the end of a short passage next to the study, is the master suite. This truly pampering parents retreat has a substantial walk-in robe fitted with extensive shelving to maximise storage. The adjacent ensuite is most impressive, with quality fixtures and finishes to provide the ultimate relaxing, ruminating experience. Complete with a large spa and frameless shower with rain soaking showerhead plus a timber vanity with brass fixtures and heritage leadlight cabinetry. A heated towel rack and illuminated shaving mirror are additional features emphasizing the high standard of living promoted here.
Classic, sophisticated interiors characterise the home, executed at its best in the French Provincial style kitchen. No expense has been spared to achieve both practical and aesthetic perfection. 40mm granite and marble blended benchtops look incredible against the rustic finish of the cabinetry. Incorporating all stainless steel smeg appliances and an induction cooktop, this kitchen would please any enthusiastic foodie . A huge skylight allows natural light to pour through, plus a large central window with picturesque views has the ability to be a servery when entertaining on the adjoining deck. Overhead glazed display cabinets with glass shelving are internally illuminated and the large walk-in pantry next the built-in double fridge space offers plenty of space for storage. The main preparation bench has an extended upper counter and a set of three outward facing hidden cupboards beneath, accessed by gently pushing pressure catches for even more storage space.
The kitchen overlooks the expansive, open plan casual living room with a cast iron free standing combustion wood fire. Sliding doors allow internal/external connectivity, joining the 3.5m deep deck running the length of this side of the home.
The fully covered timber deck offers an incredible, protected area enjoying a beautiful vantage over the landscaped private pool and surrounds. A frameless glass panel fence encloses the pool area for visual appeal. Surrounded by raised garden beds, edged in roughcast sandstone blocks, the manicured gardens dotted with palms to create an ideal oasis for swimming, relaxing or entertaining in style. A large pergola is fitted with a ceiling fan making it a lovely place to recline with a gentle breeze. Additional access at the far end of the deck allows easy circulation connecting to the internal living and kitchen area.
Beyond the living space, amenities are grouped together; a large laundry with practical benches and built-in cupboards is opposite the main bathroom. In-keeping with the heritage style, the claw foot bath makes a delightful centre piece. Finished with quality fixtures and features matching the ensuite, again, it is luxury and comfort that defines the design.
Turpentine timber floors continue throughout the rest of this wing where four generously sized bedrooms are clustered together at the far end. They all have sizable walk-in robes and TV points in most rooms.
This incredible home is surrounded by landscaped gardens and lawns, with an established orchard, a large enclosed vegetable patch, a chicken coop and more. There is a triple bay Colorbond shed off the main driveway for storage of maintenance equipment. The separate double garage at the top of the drive has additional storage room to the rear plus another complete bathroom. The exposed aggregate area fronting the garage provides enough space for two visiting vehicles to park.
