ENTRANCE & HERITAGE FEATURES

Standing proudly beyond a wrought iron fence and embraced by lawn and formal plantings, the elegant symmetrical facade is enhanced by double embellished bay windows and a wisteria entwined return veranda.

Enchanting stained-glass that surrounds the front door is echoed down a grand arched hallway that intersects the highly flexible traditional floorplan.

Glorious original features have been preserved throughout, and include decorative fireplaces, superb ceiling roses, 4m plus ceilings, floorboards and servant bells.

FORMAL ROOMS

Both the dining room and formal sitting room are expansive showpieces. Perfect for formal entertaining or an everyday relaxed retreat, the sitting room features an elegant bay window with plantation shutters and an open gas fire.

Beneath a resplendent chandelier that originally hung in the Regent Theatre and warmed by a gas fire, the opulent dining room with pressed metal ceiling will host the most glamorous dinner party or large family gathering.

An eclectic study/library forms a cocoon for the bibliophile and a unique backdrop for Zoom meetings.

MASTER SUITE & FAMILY ACCOMMODATION

The sophisticated master is a sumptuous haven with bay window, chandelier and gas fire. The fashionista's dream dressing room includes floor to ceiling robes and fireplace; and a newly renovated designer ensuite features marble, double vanities and a private decked courtyard with outdoor shower.

Two further bedrooms include built-in robes and fireplaces. A home office with custom workstation could be utilised as a fourth bedroom.

OPEN PLAN LIVING

Forming the contemporary hub of the home, open plan living effortlessly merges indoor and outdoor spaces. The kitchen hosts a range of integrated Euro appliances, custom cabinetry, stainless countertops, marble splashbacks and a central marble island overlooking casual living and meals.

Below, an expansive cellar is perfect for storing an extensive wine collection and for the connoisseur to host tastings.

Privately situated, a huge family bathroom is appointed with aged brass tapware, floor to ceiling marble, bath, double vanities and linen press. The adjacent laundry doubles as a powder room.

ALFRESCO LIFESTYLE

The current owners have cleverly converted the original stable with cobbled floors into a fabulous poolside entertaining pavilion that incorporates a kitchenette, built-in seating, Jetmaster fireplace, TV and speakers; whilst the original saddle room currently houses a home gym.

A resort-style vibe extends from the solar heated pool punctuated by towering palms and sun decks, across a lawn dappled by a majestic jacaranda, to an elevated entertaining/lounge deck with hanging Didon nest.

GROUNDS

Designed by Virginia Kennett, the glorious mature garden envelops the house to form an urban oasis of clipped hedges, succulents, giant cycads, dragon trees, frangipani, ornamental pears, citrus and lush lawns. LED feature lights provide glowing night-time enchantment.
