Set on the sunny northern side of Brighton's iconic grand boulevard, this beautifully sited home stands tall opposite Kamesburgh Gardens. This exceptional home has it all within a walk North Point Café and the Golden Mile beachfront walking and cycling tracks are half a dozen blocks away, Martin St village and Gardenvale station are around the corner, Star of the Sea and St James Primary are within steps, and the central Brighton schools are within minutes.
Reimagined as the home of an interior designer, by leading Bayside builders, Atkinson Pontifex, this sophisticated three bedroom plus home-office, 3.5 bathroom, triple-suite home takes inspiration from New York Loft-style living with a multi-zone design centred on a towering home-office. Lit by a massive grid window and topped by an iron-edged catwalk extending from a streamlined stair, this monumental space is the core around which the home's indoor and outdoor spaces flows.
Freestanding on a full allotment of 550 sq m approx. with a lush entry landscape, a central water-feature garden and a sun-bathed northerly entertainers' yard, the home orients two side-by-side living zones to the north and angles out a vast al fresco zone (decked in Silver Ash) alongside a subtle 3D painting by a local artist.
Designed to blend internal rooms and external gardens; each space feels unique and private, and the home is a showcase of this designer's signature style with streamlined cabinetry given equal weight in public and private spaces from centre-stage in the bold black Miele appliance kitchen, to quietly catching the sun in a master-suite daybed window-seat, to providing functional built-in and walk-in storage.
Beautifully detailed with textural oak floors, CDK Stone's Neolith porcelain benchtops and imported terrazzo-style, Kit-Kat and glass tiles, the home's impeccably curated interiors are appointed with Dutch in-bench Pitt gas-hobs, German Miele appliances (including a Smartphone-operated integrated dishwasher) and Australian Gareth Ashton tapware and Billi hot-water tap.
With whiteware from Studio Bagno, and lighting from Domo and Space, the home is appointed to an uncompromising level from clever little luxuries (including concealed cistern WCs, heated towel rails and al fresco panel-heating), to big-picture features (including a towering entry void, a soaring al fresco skylight and impressive fireplaces inside and out). Hydronically heated with additional zoned reverse-cycle climate-control, the home features multiple ceiling fans, an alarm and secure video-intercom entry, and auto-irrigated grounds.
