The Gallery By Architect Richard Longley Bespoke Single Level Future Proofed DesignHilltop Location Looking North Over ParklandShore | Countdown Absolutely all offers presented by 5pm Wednesday November 26th. (Seller reserves the right to sell prior). WILL BE SOLD.Sitting high on an architecturally landscaped granite escarpment, this bespoke Richard Longley Architect designed home, is all about lavish and luxurious single level living, and has even been future proofed, so you can move once and enjoy longevity of tenure here.This is a home of refined elegance and sophistication. Built to accommodate a diverse range of interests most notably home design, art, reading, collectables, gardens (with winding rock paths to entertain children) entertaining and of course family. Spaces to read, spaces to study, beautiful gardens which are framed by windows in every room. With lots of light and openings to let the sea breeze in. During Covid it was even an entertainment venue with owners holding a neighbourhood picnic and concert on the front lawn - hiring an opera singer to entertain the community. Soaring 5m+ ceilings reach for the sky. Architectural, industrial steel windows frame the treetops and views and invite the outdoors to your internal living experience. An elevation and view of the parks - the kitchen gallery window and side verandah is like the helm of a ship. It gets the sunrises and commands a view of the street park and golf course. There is always something happening and something to watch.High, arched rooftops create environmentally passive design. Banks of windows facing Northeast trap warm sunshine and heat the home in the winter. Electric opening ceiling windows release any unwanted heat via convection in the summertime. Those facing Southwest capture cooling sea breezes which enter, fall and cool the home. Internal architecture and hardware are high-end at every turn. Warm timber boards are under foot, quality cabinetry and joinery are throughout, and there is generous use of stone. The warmth of an open gas fire crackles during the wintertime, creating alluring ambience.Fantastic indoor-outdoor interconnectivity sees all main living spaces flowing onto north entertaining terraces, under pergolas wrapped with mature grape vines. On the terrace, outdoor lounge and dining spaces overlook landscaped gardens to the north and east. Mature groves of frangipani flower and scent the air throughout the summer months. At the base of one of your driveways, a huge Jacaranda blooms a bright, vivid purple in late November to signal the oncoming festive season each year. As the Jacaranda flower fades, the mature Poinciana by your second driveway comes to life with its fire-red flowers for the tail end of the hot months to remind you each year of the true beauty of our long, late, balmy Indian Summers.Internally, the home comprises two living areas, a study/library, an extraordinary gallery space for art lovers, a wine cellar, 2.5 bathrooms, a double garage plus a third single garage/carport, and a generous 901sqm lot.The central gallery anchors and defines the home. It not only showcases your art collection but also doubles (and previously has been used as a space) for functions, speeches and concerts. The double doors from the gallery and the double doors in the lounge and alfresco were also designed for entertaining to enable a lot of people to flow in and out. This home has been the host to many a party or soire and accommodates large numbers well.
