Abode
Wrapped in spectacular landscaped leafy gardens, this luxurious and light-filled bespoke residence has been architect-designed by Richard Kerr, with gardens by acclaimed Ben Scott Landscape Design, for simplicity, symmetry, proportion and a masterful integration of indoor and outdoor living in one of Armadale's most coveted addresses.
The interiors are intimately connected with mature landscaped gardens to the north, east and west, fed by automated irrigation and offering a private, sophisticated setting for entertaining. Living amongst the gardens is a genuine pleasure, with the outlook shifting and evolving through the seasons to offer something different at every turn. Fresh spring growth gives way to lush summer greens, rich autumn colour and the quiet structure of winter, ensuring natural light and the surrounds never feel static. The indoor/ outdoor living experience is further enhanced by a Bose inbuilt surround sound system internally and externally allows year-round entertaining and music to flow seamlessly from the living areas through to the gardens. Banks of floor-to-ceiling windows and sliding doors dissolve the boundary between indoors and out across the ground-floor living and entertaining spaces, while an alfresco dining terrace is sheltered by an electric push-button Vergola with wind and rain sensors. A curved teak deck is a lovely spot to unwind by the chiminea, and a tranquil fishpond and Japanese garden invite instant relaxation alongside two outdoor heaters and an integrated barbecue.
Immaculate interiors include north-facing living and west-facing family living and dining, and a stone kitchen with a long island bench, breakfast bar, abundant storage, Miele appliances and dishwasher. The three-bedroom, three-bathroom accommodation includes a spacious main bedroom with dressing room and ensuite, a main bathroom with freestanding bath, a ground-floor bathroom and a flexible study or fourth bedroom.
Appointed with every luxury, the home also features double glazing, American Oak flooring, zoned heating and air conditioning, a built-in ducted vacuum system, separate laundry, an underground water tank, a double remote garage with integrated wall storage, and electric wrought-iron gates with CCTV.
