Sublimely set behind fragrant and colourful cottage gardens, this picture-perfect three-bedroom, two-bathroom single-level Brighton home resplendently retains its Edwardian-era charm and character while harmoniously delivering spacious and light-filled modern family functionality in a coveted blue-chip street, just moments to Bay Street and Golden Mile beaches.
Set behind a classic picket fence, automatic driveway gates open to a newly constructed auto-door garage which delightfully matches the weatherboard and stucco clad façade of the home. Ornate timber fretwork and stained-glass embellishments feature strongly in the original front rooms, while the towering ceilings are adorned with classic plasterwork roses and cornices. The rear extension amplifies the height and light to next level with soaring pitches and clerestory windows creating a gallery-like effect in the open-plan living and dining spaces. Centrally positioned, the stone-topped kitchen is equipped with Smeg appliances including a five-burner gas cook top, a 900 mm oven, and rangehood, and there is a Miele integrated dishwasher. French doors open to a vine-draped pergola above a decked alfresco entertaining area, and lushly lawned landscaped private wraparound rear gardens. Sumptuously carpeted in neutral-toned wool loop pile, the main bedroom has a wall of custom built-in robes and a skylit ensuite. The two robed front bedrooms have traditional tile-edged fireplaces and delightful garden outlooks through plantation shutter-clad windows.
Additional features include an elegantly tiled main bathroom with built-in tub and walk-in shower, a laundry with plenty of built-in storage including attic storage, zoned Fujitsu central heating and cooling, split systems and a security alarm.
Neighboured by a mix of luxury and characterful period homes in Brighton's esteemed residential heartland, this tightly held address is a short stroll to Bay Street shopping, cafes, cinema and station, and also just a few minutes' walk to 'Golden Mile' beaches, the Bay Trail, elite schools including Brighton Grammar and Firbank Grammar and close to the lush greenery of Kamesburgh Gardens.
