Expertly re-imagined for modern life against a backdrop of timeless beauty, this is family living of rare grace and remarkable proportions. Respectfully renovated to offer 5 bedrooms, a work-from-home office and 3.5 bathrooms over 2 well-conceived levels, this substantial home fits a modern family with gracious formal living (warmed by an open fire), a lofty 3+m ceilinged family zone (opening to an entertainers’ terrace) and a versatile 1st-floor retreat (with treetop views and Dandenongs’ glimpses).
Adaptably designed with 2 equally well-appointed suites, each with ensuite and walk-in-robe, this clever design accommodates a growing family with a ground-floor master-suite with private courtyard, and a whole-floor master-level made private by the upstairs retreat.
Showcasing leading-edge design against a backdrop of decorative ceilings and sparkling leadlight, this sophisticated home stars an elite Miele, marble and mirror kitchen, stone-benchtop bathrooms with a similar marble theme, and statement pieces including a sculptural egg-bath. Finely featured with wideboard oak floors, natural stones and tall sliding doors, this gracious home has the security of video entry, the comfort of zoned climate-control and the ease of abundant storage including robes.
Set in family-wise landscaped grounds with lawns for play, paving for entertaining and rear hedging for enhanced privacy, the property even accommodates the family fleet in style with auto-gated parking for 4 cars including a double garage. Situated in a leafy off-Bay St precinct just 350m from the cafes and restaurants and a 3 minute dash to North Brighton station, this benchmark period beauty is just minutes’ walk to all the Brighton schools, and a leisurely stroll to the baristas and bars of Martin St village
