Open as advertised, or by appointment.
Single-level living, a deep north aspect and a walkable central location are a rare combination, and this just-completed three bedroom, two bathroom contemporary masterpiece delivers all three. Built by quality boutique builders Smithkon to the exacting specifications of legendary Bayside architect Peter Wright, it brings northern light into every room, including the high-ceilinged living zone.
The kitchen is built for entertaining, with Bosch appliances including a 900mm induction cooktop and integrated dishwasher, alongside a stone-wrapped bar. The light-filled laundry doubles as a butler's pantry.
Architectural detail runs throughout: 3m squareset ceilings rise to a vaulted roofline and a triangular feature window. Finishes include stone benchtops, wideboard Oak floors, porcelain tiles and loop-pile carpet. Both bathrooms are fully tiled, with a true double ensuite featuring dual vanities and a double shower. Storage is ample.
Outside, an exposed aggregate entertaining area sits beneath a shaded pergola, with rear lawns wrapping around for kids and pets. Feature trellises give every bedroom a green outlook, and auto-irrigation with generous water storage keeps it all green. A solar system helps keep running costs down.
Comfort and security are sorted with multi-zone climate control, a sculptural ceiling fan in the living zone, a Dahua intercom to auto gates and secure parking for upto 4 cars, including a double auto-garage.
The location is just as easy. It's 700m to the Highett Rd hospitality strip, with cafes, bars and restaurants and Highett Station within a weekend stroll with a supermarket close by for the daily dash. A major bus route is nearby, Southland is one stop down the train line, the Sandbelt golf courses are minutes away, and the beachside cafés of Sandringham and Hampton are within easy reach. The CBD is a direct weekday commute via an easy walk to the station.
Being brand new, this home also arrives at a genuinely advantageous moment. Recent federal and state changes have reshaped the playing field firmly in favour of newly-built homes like this one. First home buyers can access grants and stamp duty concessions that now apply almost exclusively to new construction rather than established stock. Investors navigating the phase-out of negative gearing on existing homes will find the tax benefits remain intact on a new build such as this. And with foreign buyers currently restricted to purchasing new dwellings only, this home sits within a shrinking pool of eligible, move-in-ready options a genuine point of difference in the current market.
