Architectural scale. Absolute parkland frontage. Set on 746m² along the peaceful service road of Carmody Road, this near-new 430m² designer residence is a masterclass in refined, resort-style living, its soaring volumes and considered detail set against the rare backdrop of Banksia Park, onto which its rear boundary opens directly. Five bedrooms, five bathrooms and an in-ground pool complete a setting of genuine, uncompromising luxury.
Step inside and the scale announces itself immediately: a 5.7-metre entry void soars overhead, an imported statement pendant suspended above the staircase below it. That sense of volume carries through to the family room, where 3.6-metre ceilings amplify the light and openness of the plan, while Pavai oak flooring runs underfoot, warming the sophisticated palette throughout. Zoned, ducted reverse-cycle air conditioning keeps every wing of the home comfortable, whatever the season.
A showpiece by any demanding standard, the kitchen is outfitted with premium stone benchtops and a full suite of top-of-the-range Miele appliances, backed by a rare ten-year warranty. Extensive custom cabinetry and a generous butler's pantry combine with dedicated wine storage to deliver the finest culinary experience, opening seamlessly onto the connected dining and living zones beyond.
Outside, a sparkling in-ground pool forms the centrepiece of the private rear yard, framed by an expansive alfresco terrace with its own outdoor kitchen and BBQ - with nothing beyond the boundary but the canopy of Banksia Park, a genuinely resort-like outlook rarely found this close to the city.
Five bathrooms carry the same considered luxury, finished in large-format porcelain tiles. The master ensuite goes further again, pairing a freestanding bath with an oversized tiled shower and integrated seating for something closer to a boutique hotel than a family bathroom.
Upstairs, the master suite occupies its own private wing with dressing area, ensuite and balcony, joined by three further bedrooms, a separate family living zone and a dedicated office - a fifth bedroom in all but name, built for the flexibility modern family life demands.
