Bold and luxurious architectural excellence is flawlessly presented in this grand, Balwyn High School-zoned, five-bedroom, five-bathroom, plus office residence, where a seamless flow to poolside alfresco living is perfectly suited to a proud entertainers' lifestyle.
Masterfully crafted by KHAK architects, the home creates an eye-catching double-story presence in one of the area's most sought-after and tree-lined boulevards near Burke Road and Whitehorse Road.
Under soaring 3.3 metre ceilings and with rich Oak parquetry under foot, the home flows through a dramatic entrance and broad central hallway, past a study and formal lounge to its open-plan crescendo. Appointed with a full suite of Miele appliances - including integrated refrigerator, oven/microwave, cooktop, dishwasher and coffee machine - and finished in eye-catching stone, the kitchen/dining/living, as well as its Butler's Pantry, have been conceived for gourmet cooking and impressive entertaining. Three sets of French doors open to an undercover alfresco area where a BBQ is built-into stone bench tops, all of which is oriented to oversee all the family-friendly joy of the gas-heated in-ground swimming pool.
Each of the bedrooms is set upstairs to offer unprecedented family luxury, adjacent to a generous living room/retreat. The main bedroom is a divine indulgence, appointed with a huge dressing room and a fully-tiled, hotel-like ensuite in which an oversized shower is separate to the bathtub and overseen by a vast, stone-topped double basin vanity. Meanwhile, the remaining bedrooms enjoy either ensuite or semi-ensuite access to similarly appointed showpiece bathrooms.
Completed to the highest of standards, this first-class and fully secure residence also features an internally accessed double lock-up garage with secure driveway parking for another two vehicles, as well as secure video entry, CCTV surveillance, an alarm system and external motion detectors. Further highlights include ducted vacuum, sub-floor heating in all bathrooms and separate upstairs and downstairs heating and air conditioning units for zonable, year-round enjoyment.
Within easy reach of a first-class selection of local cafes, dining and shopping on Burke Road and Whitehorse Road, this is a coveted position within easy reach of city-bound trams as well as a wonderful selection of Melbourne's most elite private schools.
