Living spaces are equally adaptable with French-doored formal rooms (one a library/home-office, the other lounge or dining with entertainers courtyard) plus an expansive family zone facing north over a glass-fenced pool, tree-shaded entertaining and broad lawns. Appointed to this designer-owners discerning specification with a state-of-the-art kitchen (with Jenn-air fridge, integrated Miele dishwasher and 4m island bench), the home showcases an expert eye for quality with solid Spotted Gum flooring, plush charcoal carpets, cool Stone Italia benchtops and bespoke cabinetry including robe, desk and shelving units.

Perhaps even more importantly, the home shows a professional eye for practicality by catering for every aspect of family life from a multi-function kitchen utility area (encompassing butlers pantry, parents workstation and catering area), a mud-room from the side-entry, and a large laundry with drying-cabinet and chute. Richly detailed with grand proportions (including 3.3m ceilings) and gracious features (including fine fireplaces), the home offers a wealth of contemporary comfort - with hydronic heating plus ducted reverse-cycle air-conditioning, an alarm system, ducted vacuum, double glazing, 5000L tank and 20 solar-energy panels .

Even the approx. 988sqm combine timeless graces and todays family spaces with an auto-irrigated formal landscape designed by William McGauran, and kids paradise gardens with a solar-heated tiled lap-length (15m) pool, broad lawns and a half-basketball court beside the easy-access double rear auto-garage.

Just four blocks from the bay and Brighton Beach station, this impressive Victorian residence has Hampton Sts caf society and Church Sts retail therapy in reach, the central Brighton schools within minutes and Haileybury and St Leonards Colleges within a last minute 250m dash.
