Style, Space and Substance with Northern Exposure on a Corner Block!

A timeless illustration of character-rich integrity, unexpected privacy and a radiant range of living zones, this high-gabled and handsome 4 bedroom (plus study) home blends elegant Art Deco charm with immaculate contemporary style. Set over two levels on a prominent corner allotment of approx. 819sqm, this is privileged Brighton living washed in northern light. A Bayside lifestyle does not get any better than this!

Wonderfully welcoming from street level, discover elegant formal lounge and dining rooms under towering ceilings. Perfect for effortless entertaining, Art Deco flourishes from ornate open fireplaces to delightful bevelled glass doors and quality light fittings add substance and grandeur to both rooms.

The main bedroom is positioned downstairs, stylishly serviced by roomy built-in robes and a family-sized bathroom with a sumptuous bath, stone-topped vanity and a separate WC. Also tucked away on this level, a poolside study is the perfect spot to slip away for some quiet time.

There’s a genuine sense of occasion in the light-filled, shared family spaces with all rooms refined yet relaxed in nature. A superbly skylit kitchen features a freestanding Falcon stove and high-end Miele dishwasher, while an adjacent open-plan living and dining area has been expertly designed to make the most of a sweeping external aspect over a pool and gardens.

Seamlessly connecting with the privacy of the entire block, a sun-drenched, timber deck will immediately inspire thoughts of entertaining. Beyond the deck, enjoy a north-facing, gas-heated swimming pool and spa, framed by a relaxed terrace, gabled undercover entertaining area, and lush, low-maintenance gardens. This serene setting will be used on a daily basis with plenty of room for extensive lounge and dining settings.
