Only nine years old and custom designed by its current owner, this beautifully considered Upwey home is proof that thoughtful design changes the way a home feels. Set high on a sweeping corner allotment of approx. 1,404sqm with dual access, it blends warmth, polish and practicality with the kind of outlook that makes you pause. Morning light spills across the easterly-facing front balcony, sunsets ignite the rear horizon, and on a clear day you can even catch ships moving across the distant bay.
Inside, the home feels social without losing its sense of calm. Gleaming hardwood floors, crisp plantation shutters and floor-skimming windows bring light and texture to the main living spaces, while the open-plan kitchen, dining and living domain is designed to keep everyone connected. A smaller sitting zone at the front opens to the balcony, creating a quiet perch for coffee, fireside reading or simply watching the morning arrive.
The kitchen is the true gathering point. A generous stone island with breakfast seating, Italian pendant lighting and beautifully considered finishes create a space made for platters, conversation and a pinot while dinner cooks. Behind it, a substantial butler's pantry with a second sink and garden outlook keeps the working side of the kitchen neatly out of view.
At the rear, the home shifts effortlessly into entertaining mode. A covered deck with remote retractable blinds, ceiling fan, built-in barbecue, bar fridge and granite-topped counter overlooks level lawn and those spectacular western skies. Dual access from Ternes Road also creates excellent scope for caravan or boat access, while a separate studio adds another layer of flexibility for work, guests, gym use or storage.
