A home. An investment.
This landmark property, designed and totally reconstructed by architects associated with the acclaimed Renzo Piano building (working in close collaboration with the present owners), wasn’t merely a renovation, rather a labour of love. Their efforts are obvious from the moment of entry. A spectacular water feature, involving two waterfalls a heated pool with swimjets and underwater speakers and a spa to fit eight comfortably, creates an exceptional first impression.
No expense was spared and no detail overlooked in the development of the new wing. A dramatic wooden staircase leads from the living and dining area to the bedroom and bathrooms. Complete with fully equipped gym, this building is at the rear of the property making it the perfect retreat. Commercial and investment possibilities abound, with a completely separate restaurant and bar and a second potential commercial space, currently a recording studio.
Two wings, each a luxury home in itself.
Fronting Bourke Street and over four levels, is the original building. Timber decks and stairs lead from the pool to a striking games room, where dark wood creates an atmosphere that’s warm and comforting. A twisting staircase leads to the master bedroom, with a bathroom that’s simply a work of art. A huge bathtub, crafted in Italy from the crushed shells of almonds set in resin rests on a floor of individually placed river pebbles. Copper and mother of pearl tiles complete a picture of sheer opulence. One level higher are the living and dining areas and gourmet kitchen, with views to the CBD and surrounding suburbs.
The property is air conditioned and secured via video cameras, with a fire alarm, a sprinkler system and a back to base alarm system.
