Were Street’s Hidden Secret

Architecturally designed with contemporary features and grand land come together in this inspiring entertainer. Cleverly positioned on approx 834 sqm to capture all day sun across broad north-westerly lawns, this interior designer's own five bedroom plus study area, three bathroom home is the ultimate indoor-outdoor entertainer in this highly sought after family lifestyle location.

With expansive deck-wrapped living-dining, this contemporary home flows seamlessly to dual awning-shaded al fresco areas...before stepping up to a relaxed kids' entertainment zone at the heart of the first floor. Designed for lush green outlooks at every turn, there are sneaky treetop and parkland views from every bedroom including through a single-sheet 2.6m wall of glass for the expansive master suite!

This home is a testament to this owner-designer's uncompromising approach to minimalist, timeless design with high-impact detail including full-height doors, P50 shadow-line, stone, glass and timber finishes. In the dramatic entry a massive double-pivot door opens wide, a concrete-blade feature-wall steps up over two-storeys and wide bi-folds and tall french doors take indoor living out.

Centred on a spectacular Carrara marble open-fireplace, principal living wraps around to a streamlined appliance kitchen while, up above, the vast master domain (with walls of robes and a dual vanity ensuite) is set beyond the fitted study area. Cleverly appointed with in-floor heating, ducted climate control and individual reverse-cycle units, the home is secured by a zoned alarm, video-intercom and double auto-garage. The current owners have encompassed a Sonos entertainment system wired to outdoor speakers. Extensive energy-efficient LED lighting and double –glazing for power efficiency has been introduced.

A short walk to Hampton Street, Haileybury and St Leonard's College, a jog to the bay and minute to stations, this is designer living for an al fresco family lifestyle.
