Overview

High ceilings, beautiful light and a plunge pool out back

Mid-century design at its most captivating, this single-level home is all clean lines, functional forms and a bold connection to nature. Clerestory windows and walls of glass draw daylight and greenery into almost every room, lofty ceilings lend an extraordinary sense of space, and Victorian Ash floors add warmth underfoot. One of just four, with its own street frontage, it has been renovated to a luxurious, sophisticated standard, while a private garden and plunge pool provide a fitting finale. In the living and dining room, highlight glazing runs along the top of the wall and frames the treetops, while doors open straight out to the lawn and alfresco entertaining area. A custom bookcase and entertainment unit spans the full length of the room, with shelving enough for a serious library. The rich timber against all that light creates an elegant yet relaxed ambience. The kitchen has a room of its own, which any keen cook will appreciate, yet a wide servery keeps it in easy conversation with the lounge. From the sink, the eye travels across the garden to a towering gum, so even the washing up comes with a view. Nero stone benchtops and sleek white cabinetry make a striking combination, joined by a full suite of Bosch appliances, including oven, gas cooktop and dishwasher, and ample storage. The main bedroom is impressively spacious, with built-in robes and a leafy aspect, while the second has robes and shelving. Each has split-system air conditioning, backed by hydronic heating throughout. The renovated bathroom combines crisp white tiles with a floating vanity, a round vessel basin and terrazzo-style floors as a nod to the era. A generous walk-in shower offers frameless glass, a rain head and a handheld, while the heated towel rail is a welcome comfort. The laundry follows suit with a stone benchtop and its own heated rail, alongside a separate toilet. Out the back, grass, big boulders and flowering beds sit under established trees, and a crazy-paved terrace leads to the round plunge pool, with plenty of room for an outdoor table in between. A carport and shed are also included. Church Street's boutiques, cafés and restaurants are moments away, a film at the Dendy makes for a great night out, and Middle Brighton station is just as handy for the city. Brighton Beach, the Brighton Baths and Middle Brighton Pier are close by for a swim or a stroll along the Bay Trail, while Billilla's historic gardens, William Street Reserve, Brighton Grammar and Firbank round out a superb neighbourhood. Move-in ready and brimming with character, it suits downsizers keen to stay on one level with somewhere to indulge a green thumb, or professionals wanting a two-bedroom home that stands apart.
