The embodiment of bespoke grandeur, 'Lorne' is a stately sanctuary hidden from view on a commanding 1,578sqm. Enveloped by greenery and elevated behind secure gates, this estate exhibits elegant refinement and secluded prestige in an exclusive Ascot setting. Importantly, the property has recently received demolition approval, presenting buyers with the rare flexibility to either restore this grand residence or create an entirely new luxury home on this exceptional landholding (STCA).
Defined by its timeless architecture, the interiors display classic forms with parquetry timber floors, flowing drapery, swathes of marble and granite, decorative cornices and French doors enriching the interiors, and ornate iron balustrades adorning the beautiful balconies.
A selection of living and dining spaces creates a sense of separation and connection across the entry level, with a formal lounge warmed by a fireplace, a dining room catering to indoor entertaining, and a family zone adjoining the well-appointed kitchen.
Effortlessly transitioning outdoors, the home is designed for quiet relaxation and enviable hosting. A private patio is tucked within manicured landscaping, and lush lawns form a grassed court for children's play or garden parties beside the swimming pool. Upper and lower balconies extend the living space further, offering elevated vantage points to take in the suburban skyline, with views stretching to the Gateway Bridge and Moreton Island.
The house includes a children's study, a spacious executive office, and four upper-level bedrooms, including three opening to the balcony to capture the breeze and outlooks. Privately positioned on the ground floor, a fifth bedroom is paired with its own lounge, presenting a haven for guests, au pairs or teenagers.
