landmark renovation has converted this classically elegant Edwardian residence into a 4 bedroom 'feast for the senses' with a light-loving and expansive al fresco flow. Remarkable in its ability to combine eye-catching aesthetics with considered functionality, this is the ultimate urban family home in a dream location. Brilliantly, the home's vast open-plan kitchen / meals / living retains a welcoming sense of warmth whilst delivering a lofty al fresco flow. Italian porcelain floor tiling combines with feature grade exposed timber, an exposed steel beam and stone benches in a space that is warmed by a gas Coonara fire place. Huge glass sliding doors create a seamless connection to a vast, paved and under-cover outdoor entertaining area that has a fully plumbed outdoor kitchen leading to fabulous cubby and shed. A separate lounge room (with gas fireplace) offers another living area that is sure to be valued by families, whilst upstairs, the master bedroom retreat is sure to be cherished by parents with a superb ensuite and north-facing balcony. Each of the bedrooms has built-in robes in this home with ingenious rooftop storage, volumes of under stair storage and huge, well-designed cupboards. In a home where attention to detail has been paramount, additional features include a superb Butler's Pantry, premium enamel kitchen cabinetry, automatic rain-activated skylights upstairs, split system heating / cooling and 6 star infinite gas hot water. In this tightly-held, proudly maintained and community-spirited neighbourhood, this is the perfect family-friendly urban setting, within walking distance of shops and cafes on Mason St, as well as quick city-commuting via Newport Railway Station, Newport Lakes and great local schools.
