Description
CBPM Real Estate is proud to introduce this magnificent seven-bedroom, six-bathroom detached residence, constructed in 1996 and extending to an impressive 501.6 square metres, all set on a substantial 0.36-hectare site. Boasting a highly efficient B3 BER rating, this exceptional home combines remarkable scale, generous grounds, and modern performance, offering refined living without compromise. Step through the doors and into a residence that immediately captivates. The entrance hall offers both a statement and a welcome — an architectural prelude to the elegance that unfolds beyond. Bathed in natural light from expansive glazing, the space feels airy and composed. The striking black-and-white checkered flooring delivers a bold yet timeless design moment, grounding the home in classic sophistication. A beautifully crafted staircase rises gracefully, adding architectural presence and effortless flow between levels, while thoughtfully integrated storage preserves a refined, uncluttered aesthetic. Beyond the entrance, the home reveals a rare and refined library — a sanctuary of intellect and comfort. Floor-to-ceiling bespoke shelving frames the room, creating a dramatic backdrop for literary collections and curated objects. Rich wood flooring and an elegant fireplace, enhanced by intricate millwork and crown detailing, speak to enduring craftsmanship. It is a space designed equally for quiet reflection and intimate entertaining. The principal living and dining areas are defined by volume, light, and effortless flow. Expansive windows frame picturesque views while saturating the interiors with natural light. Warm timber floors and carefully considered finishes create an atmosphere that is both sophisticated and welcoming. The open-plan layout transitions seamlessly from formal dining to relaxed living, offering versatility for grand-scale entertaining or serene evenings at home. At the heart of the residence lies a beautifully appointed kitchen where classic cream cabinetry is elegantly contrasted by deep navy tile accents — a palette that feels both timeless and current. Generous preparation surfaces, quality appliances, and extensive storage ensure the space performs as beautifully as it presents. A charming dining area enhances the everyday functionality of this inviting space. Complementing the main kitchen is a well-positioned utility room, thoughtfully designed to keep household essentials discreetly organised while enhancing day-to-day practicality. A rare and valuable feature of the home is the secondary kitchen and adjoining living wing, offering remarkable flexibility for multigenerational living, guest accommodation, or elevated entertaining. Bright, spacious, and thoughtfully integrated, this additional living area enhances the home’s adaptability without compromising on style or comfort. A luminous sunroom provides year-round enjoyment and a seamless connection to the outdoors. Expansive glazing and French doors invite natural light to pour in, creating a tranquil environment ideal for relaxation or social gatherings. It is a restorative space where indoor elegance meets natural beauty. The bedroom accommodation is both generous and versatile. Three well-proportioned bedrooms are conveniently positioned on the ground floor, offering exceptional flexibility for guests, extended family, or those seeking single-level living options. Each enjoys natural light and a calm, inviting ambiance. Upstairs, the primary suite serves as a private sanctuary, generously proportioned and opening to a secluded balcony with tranquil views. A spacious walk-in wardrobe provides elegant storage solutions, while the ensuite bathroom evokes a spa-like retreat, complete with a jetted bath, twin basins, towel warmer, and refined finishes that elevate everyday rituals into indulgent experiences. Additional upper-level bedrooms continue the theme of comfort and individuality. Notably, the fifth bedroom benefits from its own private ensuite, creating an ideal guest suite or independent retreat. Skylights and expansive windows throughout the upper floor invite natural light to pour in, enhancing the sense of warmth and space. The home’s multiple bathrooms blend practicality with elevated design. From striking tilework in rich tones to skylit sanctuaries featuring sculpted bathtubs and modern fixtures, each space is crafted with comfort and longevity in mind. Completing the property is a private garage, providing secure parking and additional storage — a valuable and convenient extension of the home’s thoughtful design.
