ANOTHER ONE SOLD BY ADAM NOBEL
In one of the most prestigious streets of Highgate Hill set among an enclave of designer homes and beside a parkland retreat sits this as new, 6-star design residence.
The moment you step inside this fully aspected, naturally lit property, you will appreciate the attention to detail and timeless signature designer features.
Having been constructed by an award-winning builder, this property offers multiple living areas through a glassed walkway, spanning a cooling lap pool with effervescent spa and water feature. Being zoned across three distinct levels, the parents’ room lies upstairs at the front of the house in seclusion, the living areas (formal and informal) flank the restaurant-style kitchen and the children’s bedrooms lie underneath the house at the rear of the home, giving out to a secluded landscaped garden.
With such attentive foresight by the architect, these multiple zones benefit from the cross-flow ventilation and privacy.
The sandstone paving on the driveway speaks of the quality within the house and the welcoming wide-bodied cedar door with horizontal frosted glass intensifies this effect, forming an imposing entrance to the sleek home. Once inside, you enter the formal lounge boasting blackbutt polished floors with wall-mounted plasma and walls of glass allowing views of the pool and outdoor entertaining area.
The fourth bedroom lies off this entrance way and is perfectly positioned to double as a home office since it has a separate entrance and discrete niches for office equipment.
A central walkway leads to the centrepiece of the premises the professional grade kitchen where the master chef can concoct sensational combinations of culinary delight while entertaining guests poolside. The imposing cedar bifold doors between these areas provide an aesthetic edge to the property and allow gently wafting breezes to fill the kitchen. With its lofty roof and floor-to-ceiling easy-close storage, the kitchen comes equipped with creamy white granite benchtops, two Miele ovens, a Miele stovetop, glass range hood, Gaggenhau burners and Nespresso coffee maker. The distinctive drop lighting reflects the chic ambience of the whole residence.
The kitchen gives on to the sizable formal dining area and enormous relaxing family room. Both rooms are carpeted with a rich neutral-toned, hard-wearing cross weave woollen carpet, softening the footfalls and providing insulation. A stunning freestanding sandstone fireplace provides the interface between kitchen and family retreat and bold cedar windows offer an enviable view of the garden and the neighbouring parkland which encircles this property.
Downstairs lie two double bedrooms with built-in robes, both painted in rich Mediterranean colours on panelled wood. One of the bedrooms has private access through its substantial walk-in-robe to the ultra-modern floor to ceiling marble downstairs bathroom complete with bath, Grohe tapware and Villeroy Bosch fine china which is found throughout the bathrooms and powder room.
The master bedroom lies aloft in its private retreat with plantation shutter windows, a room-length walk-in robe and enormous marble-tiled ensuite. The supersize shower head and quality appointments here reflect the extravagant indulgence present in all features of this home.
Brydon Street will amaze you with the sumptuousness of its finishes and enthrall with its changing perspectives as you wander through it.
With 5,000-litre water tank, security system, intercom, supersize tiled garage, natural cross breezes and cooling pool, this property is built for the summer heat, sustainability and liveability.
