Perched upon the hilltop of Bona Vista Drive – aptly named for its French translation, ‘Beautiful View’ – this rare, one-of-a-kind home is the pinnacle of timeless beauty. With its sweeping rural views and distinct architecture, it is truly the kind of place that words alone cannot do justice. The prestigious properties along this street are tightly-held and hardly ever come to market, so rest assured you’ll be in great company amongst other top-quality homes occupied by wonderful families devoted to their neighbourhood. Buyers with a keen eye for location will snap this gem up quickly, as Mount Pleasant is highly sought after for its tranquil surrounds and fantastic walkability.
Warmth, light and nostalgia radiate throughout the single-level home, bolstered by its show-stopping architecture. Raked ceilings with exposed beams, clerestory windows, unique archways and exposed brick are just some of the premium interior features you’ll find, and the way in which the designers have worked with texture and contrast here is unforgettable. The expansive, flowing floor plan offers multiple zones for living, dining and entertaining, including a revival of the sunken lounge! Also fondly known as a ‘conversation pit’, this unique central living space will facilitate many joyful moments of connection between you and your loved ones.
Practically every inch of this sprawling 878m2 block has been optimised to take advantage of the panoramic views. From waking up in your plush master suite with the glowing sunrise, to rounding off the day in the pool with a vivid sunset backdrop, every day you’ll be more grateful than the last to live where you do.
Why we LOVE 10 Bona Vista Drive…
- The location factor – This enviable little pocket of Mount Pleasant is known as its Dress Circle, & with those captivating views & breezes, it’s no wonder why! Plus, every amenity you could need is a light stroll away, from shopping centres, to cinemas, to the popular local tavern
- An entertainer’s dream – With an array of living & dining spaces inside & out, you’ll be the ‘host with the most’ all year round. In the warmer months, treat your guests to a BBQ under the stars in either of your 2 alfresco dining areas: an open-air paved zone by the saltwater pool & a covered patio which adjoins seamlessly to the interior living. As the cooler season rolls around, invite your nearest & dearest over for a hearty meal & games night.
