In one of Brighton’s most admired tree-lined streetscapes, perfectly positioned between the beach and Were Street Village, this captivating Californian Bungalow has been transformed for large-scale family living, unfolding to a sunlit northern poolside aspect. Period elegance and contemporary updates work harmoniously inside, shaping substantial, well-zoned interiors that adapt seamlessly to every stage of family life.
A deep, secure setback within established gardens provides an elegant prelude to the impressive interior, where a wide verandah opens to a central hall, a refined sitting room with an open fire, and a formal dining room beneath ornate high ceilings. Natural light moves through the home across the day, illuminating the expansive open-plan living and dining zones at the rear and bi-fold doors connect to the swimming pool and red-brick terrace for effortless summer entertaining. The gourmet kitchen reinforces the home’s hosting credentials, appointed with granite benchtops, premium Miele appliances, and extensive storage, including an adjoining butler’s pantry and laundry with a Miele microwave convection oven and external access.
Accommodations are zoned across two levels, headlined by the striking ground-floor main suite, replete with period beauty and verdant garden outlooks through a large bay window, a walk-in robe, and a semi-ensuite bathroom. Four further bedrooms with robes, including three upstairs, set beside a bright bathroom and an additional north-facing living room. Desirably situated close to Haileybury and St Leonards Colleges, and within minutes of Brighton Beach Station, Church Street precinct and cafes, it includes an alarm, built-in study nook, ducted heating, split system heating/cooling, hardwood timber floors, powder-room, irrigation, abundant storage and off-street parking for multiple cars beyond automated gated entry.
