Last Listing description (December 2023)

Superbly designed by Preston Lane Architects, occupying a prestigious position within one of Sandy Bay's most sought-after streets, old-world charm meets contemporary luxury with a stunningly restored Federation home in the heart of the suburb.

From the moment of entry through classic white picket fencing and immaculate gardens, a glimpse into the home's rich history is immediately presented, with original features including polished timber flooring, high ceilings, and ornate fretwork.

Period character now seamlessly blends with contemporary comfort, with the compelling Federation attributes of the original homestead combine with a modern extension to enhance liveability.

Floor-to-ceiling glazing invites an abundance of natural light and warmth to flood the open-plan living with combined dining space, where indoors extends out to a sun-drenched timber deck, elevated above the stunning gardens.

The gourmet kitchen exudes elegance, with a sleek black and white colour scheme. The culinary space comes fully equipped with high-end appliances, ample storage, and solid stone countertops.

Sumptuous accommodation comprises of four generous bedrooms, each inclusive of built-in wardrobes, and original, now decorative, fireplaces. The luxurious master also features a walk-in dressing room, and wood heating with the addition of a ducted heat pump system that services the entire home.

Two bathrooms service the home for complete convenience. One contains a shower, vanity, and a toilet, and another showcases sophistication with a deep, free-standing bath, walk-in shower, toilet, and twin-sink vanity. The laundry, with plenty of storage, sits adjacent.

Outdoor entertaining has been designed with privacy in mind, with high walls allowing the sun-soaked deck, and expansive backyard, to be enjoyed in seclusion. There's a built-in al fresco barbeque on the deck, and a feature fireplace within the courtyard.

The gardens are nothing short of spectacular, providing a city fringe oasis of expansive proportions, with a lush green lawn at its centre. Established trees, manicured hedges, and verdant florals encase the home, and frame the entrance, adding to the property's beautiful street appeal.
