Commanding an elevated position with sweeping views extending from the ranges to the ocean, this substantial family home offers an exceptional combination of space, style, flexibility and location.
Extensively transformed in 2016, the home has been thoughtfully reconfigured to create generous living spaces, excellent separation for family members and an easy connection between indoors and out. With a large private yard, expansive entertaining deck and an enviable position close to the beach, schools, shops, hospital and Albany CBD, it is a home designed to be enjoyed.
From the entry, a flight of stairs leads to a private bedroom and adjoining retreat. This area would perfectly accommodate a home office away from the main areas of the home. The views from this level are outstanding!
A few steps down, the heart of the home opens dramatically to a full wall of glazing framing a panoramic vista across Oyster Harbour, Emu Point, Lake Seppings and King George Sound, with the ranges stretching into the distance. White walls, soaring cathedral ceilings and polished Blackbutt floorboards create a light and inviting atmosphere, while the living, dining and sitting areas have been opened up to form one impressive central space. A slow-combustion wood fire adds warmth and character for the cooler months.
The classic white kitchen is both beautiful and highly functional, centred around a generous island bench and breakfast bar with stone benchtops, Smeg oven, induction cooktop, dishwasher and excellent storage. Built-in corner seating creates a relaxed and sociable setting, while the adjoining laundry continues the clean, contemporary feel with an abundance of storage and direct outdoor access.
Set separately from the main living zone, the gym or games room provides valuable additional space for the family and could readily be transformed into a home theatre, hobby room or second living area.
Half a level up, an open sitting area, or study provides another flexible space, while two bedrooms with built-in robes enjoy garden outlooks and are serviced by a modern bathroom and separate toilet.
On the lower level, the main bedroom is a generous and comfortable retreat, with sliding doors opening directly to a private porch area and a substantial walk-in robe. The adjoining semi-ensuite is stylishly appointed with a deep freestanding bath and beautiful water views. A further very large bedroom with direct access to balcony and yard as well as separate storeroom complete this level.
Direct access into the house is available from the double auto garage, while additional hard-stand parking and turning space is available near the entry. The rear yard is thoughtfully landscaped, creating a low-maintenance and highly usable outdoor space, complete with a good-sized garden shed. Most importantly, the yard enjoys a desirable north-east aspect and takes in lovely views.
