Hidden in one of Claremont's quiet and majestic Peppermint and Plane Tree-lined avenues, you'll wander across a beautifully built, single-level, elegant residence that offers an immediately palpable sense of HOME.
Built in 1990 and refurbished in 2023 to rigorous architectural standards, 5 Dunbar Road is a neo federation, light-brick sanctuary that blends modern functionality with a timeless elegance.
Upon arrival, the front facade with its pitched roof, corrugated tin sheeting and handsome chimney are complemented by a gated front garden, while the elevated footings of the residence perch the house a little higher than street-level, allowing for a pleasing vantage point to survey the suburban scenery. The rear lane adds exceptional functionality.
Inside, a rectangular entrance hall quickly evolves into a long, wide passageway - think of it as a grand thoroughfare - only gallery-esque with exquisitely crafted, rounded architraves that really give it a sense of quiet grandeur. Serendipitously, this hallway is one of the home's most ingenious features and gives it instant character - and from here it just keeps on getting better.
Turning into the main open-plan living space, the sky-high ceilings really emphasise a sense of gravity. It's here that we're transported into a modern, light-filled focal point for contemporary living where relaxation wraps itself around you. Besides the ample space and tasteful embellishments of detail to draw you in, the North-facing windows bathe the room in soft light the whole day around, while visible outside, the mature trees and established flowering hedges of the quaint, low-maintenance backyard make for a comforting view.
Neighbouring the main living area, the recently upgraded kitchen includes an innovative servings-hatch or 'passthrough' which runs to ceiling height, connecting it to the wide expanse of the area beyond. Fantastic for entertaining - or even for efficient weekday family dinners - the economical kitchen design actually allows for servicing 3 living spaces (the casual meals area and outdoor alfresco via exterior window counter included).
Across the entire layout, you're spoilt with sleek Scandinavian hardwood floors that reinforce a sense of uncluttered calm and serenity, amplifying the space while keeping the decor bright and sleek. The long north-facing axis ensures the whole home is a light, welcoming space year round.
Out the back you'll find an enormous double garage brimming with handy storage facilities for all life's accumulations and, for those with larger families, tradespeople or boat owners, the collective 4 car bays dispersed across both sides of the laneway backed property, allow for convenience and flexibility.
Put simply, this unpretentious yet elegant home, is both aesthetically appealing and functionally fantastic. Its timeless features and generous atmosphere makes for a warm and inviting home, no matter what stage you're at in life. It's future-proof and family-ready.
