When contemporary and heritage designs are combined with genuine respect for each other, magic happens. Externally, this home is a stunning example of early 1900s estates, with an intricately gabled roof, manicured front and rear gardens and a wide wraparound veranda spilling onto an expansive back lawn. Stepping inside, modern finishes seamlessly blend with the original high quality bones. The character chandeliers, bay windows, and voluminous ceilings are in full glory and brought to life against luxurious finishes, hardwood floors, and high-end fixtures. The central kitchen and expansive living area is particularly impressive; equipped with a 1500mm Smeg oven, Fisher & Paykel dual drawer dishwasher, a multi-burner gas cook top and quite remarkable amounts of storage and space. True to its stately origins, there are many generous spaces amid grand archways and wide halls with multiple living spaces to suit many purposes. The downstairs master bedroom has a spacious walk-in robe, leading onto a brilliant and modern ensuite with dual shower heads and vanities and is complemented by a further 2 downstairs bedrooms. Upstairs you'll find the fourth, fifth & sixth bedrooms plus an extra living area, central bathroom and separate WC, all ingeniously built into the home's original ceiling space. The property is further enhanced by a gas heated inground swimming pool, remote double garage and additional rear-access double garage featuring a studio apartment with fully equipped kitchen and bathroom. This is an often-astonishing confluence of heritage and progressive design. Magic, indeed.
