Set privately behind high walls, mature hedging and established gardens on an extraordinary 948m² (approx.), this commanding five bedroom, three bathroom residence is distinguished soaring proportions, expansive living and an exceptionally deep rear garden, creating a wonderfully secluded setting for family life.
A wide entrance hall sets an immediate sense of occasion, drawing the eye through spaces that rise and open with unexpected drama. At the centre, a sweeping staircase ascends beneath double-height ceilings, its graceful form lending a striking architectural presence to the transition between levels.
A sequence of beautifully proportioned rooms begins with the formal lounge, where a gas fireplace brings warmth and intimacy to the impressive volume, and tall windows capture leafy outlooks and natural light. Beyond, a garden-facing study offers a quieter retreat, framing the greenery outside.
The atmosphere becomes more relaxed across the generous living and dining areas, extending naturally to the stone-clad kitchen with breakfast bar, Forte gas cooktop and rangehood, Miele double ovens and dishwasher, and a large walk-in pantry. Walls of glazing draw the outdoors ever closer before sliding glass opens to a covered wraparound terrace, providing a superb setting for all-season entertaining.
From here, the sheer extent of the allotment becomes apparent. A vast sweep of lawn is punctuated by mature trees and plantings, creating a secure expanse where children can play, pets can roam and long summer lunches can spill outdoors.
Four bedrooms occupy the upper level, led by a main suite with fitted walk-in robes and a luxurious ensuite incorporating a bath, shower and twin vanities. Three further robed bedrooms, including one with a charming window seat, share a fully tiled twin-vanity bathroom and separate WC, while downstairs, a fifth robed bedroom and sleek bathroom provide valuable flexibility.
Plantation shutters, ducted heating, split-system comfort throughout, a storage-rich laundry and double garage with rear access complete a home where space is experienced in all its dimensions.
Superbly situated in a premier pocket close to Donald MacDonald Reserve, the beach, Royal Melbourne Golf Club and Black Rock Village shops, cafes and restaurants, with bus services nearby and zoning for Black Rock Primary School, Beaumaris Secondary College and Mentone Girls’ Secondary College.
