This is one very special, luxury home that exudes quality and attention to detail that is rarely seen, and, it ticks all boxes. Exclusive living close to town and beaches, this rare property has it all.
Few homes have such amazing bushland and water views. Views stretch from Oyster Harbour, over King George Sound, the ‘islands’, Lake Seppings bushland reserve, over Mira Mar, Middleton and all the way around to Mt Clarence. And hardly a roof in sight as you gaze over nature’s garden, watching the birds fly by with the occasional whale frolicking down below. Simply breathtaking scenery makes this home stand out from the crowd. You would never know that you are just minutes away from town, hospital, shops and a variety of both private and public schools.
You know you have stumbled across something special as you approach this home. The commanding street presence and warm acrylic rendered facade give you a sense of quality and grandeur. When you enter the home through the cedar lined porch you realise that was just the beginning of something more. Polished granite features throughout the home. Handcrafted curved cornice set into shadow-line bulkheads add luxe and style and cleverly delineate the expansive open plan living area.
The designer kitchen, just one of the many features of this home, includes a fully integrated fridge, integrated Miele dishwasher, super quiet Schweigen Range Hood, and Falcon oven with gas cook top. The kitchen also houses a spacious walk in pantry running the full depth of the kitchen, with automatic lighting to all the shelving, even space for the deep freezer. The kitchen has many other features including the soft-closing high gloss lacquered cabinetry and black pearl granite bench tops. Lacquered bulkheads with handcrafted cornices follow the curves of the kitchen with inset feature lighting adding to the luxury feel of the space. The computer nook matches the Kitchen cabinetry, and makes for an ideal work space at the hub of the home. Off the main kitchen/dining area is a large, open-plan games room with feature LED lighting.
The ground floor also includes a large bedroom or office off the main entrance, overlooking King George Sound with its own granite tiled en-suite bathroom. There are 2 other rooms on the lower level to the rear of the home, both serviced by a separate bathroom/toilet. The spacious laundry has ample storage as well as access to the fully enclosed back yard. The double garage has drive-through access to the backyard with extra height clearance for boat or caravan. There is an additional 8x7m workshop at the back of the house with double roller doors to make for that ideal man cave. The back yard is flat, grassed and landscaped and includes a 45m2 raised patio with cedar-stained timber decking.
Back inside, as you go up the staircase with polished granite feature tread up to the second level you enter another spacious living area which doubles as a home theatre. It includes a drop down projector and screen, connected to a Bose theatre system. The theatre room has sliding doors that open out onto the cedar lined alfresco area, just the place to relax and soak up those views. The upstairs windows are double glazed and walls are double gyprocked and insulated for sound, even the internal walls, all adding up to give the home a solid feel.
The main bedroom with direct access to the alfresco boasts spectacular views. The main bedroom includes a separate dressing room with floor to ceiling soft closing cabinetry, inbuilt dressing table with granite features and fully automated lighting even to each individual shelf. The dressing room leads into the ensuite, with the luxury of large format granite tiles and bench tops to match, full floor to ceiling shower screen, and super large double size shower with rain-fall shower heads.
The remaining two bedrooms on the second level also have walk in robes, with windows included to let light in, and fully fitted cabinetry. The front bedroom offers access to the front balcony and shares in those amazing views.
The house has ducted air-conditioning/heating with zone control, a Bose speaker system is hardwired throughout the living areas and controlled by a Sonos system that can be run via computer, tablet or phone. The property has an alarm and all locks are digital with exception of the front door.
The attention to detail and the finishes on this home are seldom seen today. This build has been a labour of love by the “owner” and it is evident in the finished product.
