An exceptional layout, striking industrial aesthetic and double-height ceilings bring a dramatic sense of space and some serious wow factor to this parkside home. Recreated by Mitch Lichtman Architects, 'Sonoma' is set high for privacy at the quiet cul-de-sac end of the street in a tightly held enclave leading down to Queens Park and 650m walk to the Musgrave Avenue gates to Centennial Park. A pavilion-style redesign links the old with the new via a double-storey glazed atrium with an internal courtyard connecting the living zones and the upper level devoted to a master retreat complete with a mezzanine home office. A robust palette of stone, glass and steel brings a raw industrial feel with highlight windows creating a dynamic interplay of light while an entertainer's kitchen, designer bathrooms and ducted air make for comfortable living. Just a few hundred metres to Emanuel School and St Margaret Mary's Primary, this is a perfect spot for families, 500m to Frenchmans Road's village and minutes to beaches.
