Connection meets contemplation in this deeply private, resort-style oasis, removed from the outside world. Formerly the Brighton home of late Australian innovator Brian Davis the pioneer behind the Decor homewares empire it unfolds across a 1630 sqm (approx.) allotment, delivering a masterclass in sustainability, spatial cohesion, and layered textural richness synonymous with the ethos of Macchia Design Studios Frank Macchia. Beyond a double-door entrance, an ultra-wide hallway glances across a sweeping interior to capture gardens at rear, with interiors and exteriors coexisting in complete harmony to promote wellness, joy, calmness, and creative expression in every-day life. As focused on connection as it is contemplation, the thoughtful plan centres around a reading and conversation space, fireside sitting area, banquette dining zone, limestone kitchen, and window-side bench area are just as brilliant for a family to come together as they are to enjoy a moments peace. Bi-fold windows further a connection to the outdoors, with a wonderful collection of backyard spaces delivering a sense of serenity and separation from surrounds thats essentially unheard of so close to the city. Hand-picked plant life is scattered across the domain, framing a pool and spa just as sublime for a sun-soaked afternoon as they are a late-night dip in mid-winter. With a pilates/gym area and sauna-ready room neighbouring a barn-style pavilion conceived as the abodes meeting place, a gourmet kitchen accompanies a dining/lounge zone, powder room, and rumpus space, all combining with two distinct outdoor settings to make the north-facing backyard a dream for hospitality.Three generous, lower bedrooms all feature their own ensuite, wealth of storage, and access to outside, joined on the ground floor by a fifth bedroom doubling as a second study. A magnificent main bedroom enjoy a second-storey wing all to itself, featuring a lavish, twin-basin ensuite, walk-through dressing room, and northern balcony taking in sweeping vistas. Other highlights include an upstairs retreat, lower media and office spaces, comprehensive camera security, a butlers pantry and first-class Wolf appliances in the kitchen, Tongue & Groove oak floors, sand-laced wall render, fluted windows, ceiling fans, custom concrete basins, a large laundry, full-spectrum downlights, profuse joinery, bore-water irrigation, a substantial wine cellar, outdoor shower, lower-level powder room, and secure parking for at least three cars. A project of immense detail, care, and focus on creating a space to make memories, the home is like nothing Brighton has seen before, kept wonderfully separate from its surrounds while never more than moments from vibrant Church and Hampton Streets, elite private schools, Sandbelt fairways, city trains, the Bay Trail, and picturesque Brighton Beach.
