‘Olive Grove House’ is a decadent family home and architectural triumph, custom-rebuilt with exquisite attention to detail. Enter via the oversized Meranti hardwood front door and you will instantly be swept by the opulent light-filled rooms, 3.2m high ceilings, striking herringbone flooring and brushed gold finishes. To the right of the entrance, a generous family room overlooks the manicured front garden with three-tier plantation shutters optimising both natural light and privacy. The 1003m2 site lies on the quieter southern end of Penfold Rd, just a short walk from Penfolds Magill Estate.

The centrepiece of this beautiful property is the enormous open plan living/dining space. It comes with an illusion gas fireplace and giant double-glazed commercial-grade, architecturally-designed windows complete with screens that welcome in the fresh Wattle Park air.

The kitchen boasts an industrial size seven-burner Smeg stovetop and oven complete with wall-mounted tap, farmhouse sink and dishwasher, complemented by a spacious butler’s pantry with enviable storage. The expansive kitchen island and breakfast bar with Dekton Morpheus bench top is illuminated by gorgeous Ivory & Deene pendant lights.

Pop some bubbly from your majestic balcony with outdoor kitchen, built-in Beefeater barbecue, bar fridge, wine fridge and exposed aggregate concrete floor. Spend your summer nights taking in the glorious panoramic city views while the kids enjoy the imposing 10 x 5m swimming pool and adjacent stately garden. It is all guarded by 2.4m high fences, decorated with Lilly Pilly hedges that will soar, transforming your backyard into a princely estate.

Behind the kitchen lies the stunning master bedroom – a retreat in its own right. Offering views of the skyline, garden and pool below, it encompasses a luxurious his and hers dressing room with divine wardrobe island and abundant built-ins. It extends to a regal ensuite more akin to a day spa with Velux skylight, dual showers and bench seats, double vanities and bathtub.

There are three additional well-sized bedrooms, two with ample built-ins, and all with plantation shutters and ceiling fans. The potential exists to convert a charming, secluded private study into an additional bedroom.

The bedrooms are serviced by a lavish bathroom with Terrazzo tiles, a customised open shower and bathtub, heat lights, a Velux skylight and separate toilet.

Venture downstairs to the imposing garage where you are limited only by your imagination. It is big enough to comfortably house six cars while still being utilised as a games/rumpus room or teenage retreat complete with mudroom and all behind commercial grade glass doors that slide open to the rear.

As you wander through this property be sure to keep an eye out for the two horseshoes believed to be from the original stables once housed on the land – a unique and delightful link to the past, literally on your doorstep.

It is just a five-minute walk to the Wattle Park Shopping Centre or three-minute drive to Foodland at Erindale Shopping Centre. And it all lies just a short drive to St Peter’s Girls’ School or Pembroke School while also being zoned for Burnside Primary School and Norwood International High School.
