North-Facing Haven of Unparalleled Luxury | Inspection By Appointment Embodying expression, harnessing ambition, and representing a calibre of comfort far surpassing all accepted norms, this 72sq (approx.), architecturally designed showpiece offers a masterclass in cutting-edge design. Stunning scale and flawless finishes are matched by a palpable warmth making family life a joy, with the north-facing home among the finest Essendon has seen. Rising above a deep corner parcel, crisp lines and modern minimalism make an instant impact, with sculpted flow and exquisite craftsmanship on full display beyond. A solid Victorian Ash pivot door unveils a 6m void bathing interiors in all-day sun, with an ultra-wide hallway introducing a truly vast laundry, massive mudroom, and statement powder room en route to spectacular main spaces. Living and dining areas neighbour a dream kitchen with striking Cipollino Rosso leathered marble, ribbons of Mont Blanc quartzite, an expansive butler's pantry, hidden bar, and array of first-class Miele appliances. Full-height sliding glass blends inside and out, revealing an oversized alfresco with a complete barbecue kitchen to comfortably handle large-scale hospitality. Welcomed privacy, a 3-point basketball court, and all-day sun feature in a backyard brilliant in every respect; all centred around a 8.6x4m mineral pool heated for year-round use.
