Brighton VIC 3186

State-of-the-art renovations make "Sefton" c.1880 one of the best single-level homes recently revived in Brighton. Totally transformed by an interior designer and construction professional, this three-bedroom and study Victorian home merges fine design and streamlined spaciousness for prestige living. It's been opened up, extended out, and impeccably styled with contemporary verve. The huge living and dining area is spectacular, with a soaring cathedral timber ceiling, huge pivot glass door, a built-in bench seat that doubles as storage, and reclaimed tallowwood floors sourced from a brewery. Every room is infused with a designer ambience. The kitchen is a culinary wonder, with a large Calacatta marble island bench, a cleverly designed butlers pantry, views of the gourmet vertical garden, warming drawer, wine fridge and Ilve range. Unique architectural items sourced from near and far give this home an individual flair. Bathrooms feature travertine marble basins, bespoke wooden vanities and Italian tiles, and the main bedroom is a relaxing retreat with a fully fitted walk-in wardrobe, luxurious marble en suite bathroom and timber plantation shutters. Outdoor living is easy-care and private, linked to the family room via French doors and lined with Manchurian pear trees. Potential off-street parking, an enviable cul de sac address near Bay Street, and an easy walk to leading private schools and the beach simply add to the appeal of this extraordinary architect-designed home.
