Capturing the heart and soul of family living, this superb modern sanctuary was conceived by Harkaway Homes, renown specialists in the construction of reproduction heritage residences, merging the epitome of timeless elegance with the cutting-edge convenience of contemporary living.
Borrowing from the charm of the USA’s southern states, the delightful street facade of this weatherboard home encompasses a deep front verandah and an upper storey, tree-top balcony overlooking the immaculate gardens. Replicated at the rear of the home, the balcony looks out to the generous rear garden, ultra low-salt chlorinated and solar heated swimming pool, pergola and restful cabana.
A home for those who entertain, and whose guests will be utterly captivated by their surroundings, the floorplan includes a luxurious formal (Christmas dinner size) dining room and a tranquil formal living room (or family living alternative) at the front of the home.
The vast kitchen/family/meals space spills out to the rear garden for the ultimate in summer lifestyle living and entertaining. The sophisticated design of the dream kitchen includes a central stone bench/breakfast table, farmhouse sink, quality appliances including a 6 burner Smeg stove and boundless storage at every turn, supplement by a huge, fully equipped butler’s kitchen.
A downstairs bedroom could be used as a study, with a guest powder room, enormous fully fitted laundry (with handy washing chute), under-stair storage and separate store room also at ground level.
Upstairs, the indulgent main bedroom suite includes a chic, recently modernised ensuite, WIR, study/retreat and front balcony doors, plus an adjoining multi-purpose living area. Three further family bedrooms share a family bathroom and rear balcony access.
