47 Middle Crescent

Brighton VIC 3186

Designed by architect Warren Foster of WJFA Architects, this exciting home, inspired by California mid-century design luminary Flank Lloyd Wright, provides an amazingly comfortable family lifestyle complete with light-filled interiors, top-class environmental and sustainability credentials and a brilliant connection to the outdoors.

Runner up in the 2012 HIA Awards and built by Art Nouveau homes, and set in this prestigious Brighton address, its striking street appeal has clean sharp lines and abundant use of glass and steel. Warm and welcoming interiors use non -toxic materials and finishes including natural marble, stone and timber. The selective use of glass allows natural light to filter inside, while the flowing floorplan allows fantastic air circulation. The house is warm in winter and cool in summer. Easy to live in with a solar heated, self-cleaning swimming pool, it is a complete lock-up and leave property.

A large gallery space or library with a double void lets owners feature their art collection, while a two-storey sheer-glass wall with timber feature columns provides a view to the Japanese-inspired water features and landscaping. The entry leads to a large living area, powder room, open plan kitchen and dining area with views to the swimming pool. Two feature ponds containing four small fountains with designer lighting add ambience to the professionally landscaped gardens.

Upstairs three bedrooms include the main suite with a stylish timber and marble ensuite and walk-in wardrobe. Two additional fitted bedrooms share two bathrooms, while the retreat is designed to be easily converted into a fourth bedroom.

More features of this stunning home are hydronic heating, ducted heating and air-conditioning, underfloor heating in all tiled areas, solid timber floors, double glazing, solar power, gas and wood burning fireplaces, LED lighting, including garden lights. The perfect Smart home, it has Z wave automated internal and external lighting and pond pumps with voice control, Sonos music system and LAN cabling, keyless entry, monitored alarm, six camera security system and double carport with additional off-street parking.

Families are sure to love this home's convenience as it is just metres from Firbank, opposite the park, and a short walk to Church Street, Bay Street, the beach, library and Brighton Grammar.
