Visually exciting at every turn, this ultra modern residence provides three dynamic levels of executive living behind a sleek yet striking facade. Its immense street appeal is gained largely through the use of a wide range of textural finishes including galvanised steel, translucent wall panels and rough hewn timber and stone that create interest and encourages further exploration.
Those that step inside are not disappointed with a central stairwell fully encapsulated in glass linking the two garages, private study, powder room and entry to the main section of the building, while in turn flooding the whole home with light. Furthermore, the use of tactile finishes has been carried throughout, with timber, stainless steel and stone all playing an integral role in the interior design.
In an interesting departure from the norm, all living is done on the highest level, where open plan living and dining areas work in seamlessly with the sprawling outdoor deck to create a really interactive zone that looks out to the north through the mature trees. A centrally located kitchen channels the home’s innate style, with clean, modular lines and the addition of carefully selected finishes for visual interest. A secondary entertainment option is located on the ground floor where a large rumpus room (complete with three metre ceilings, bar, music centre and adjacent air-conditioned wine room), is able to interact with the pool, spa and covered outdoor living terrace immediately beyond.
The three bedrooms meanwhile, are all located on the middle floor where the master bedroom and adjoining en-suite bathroom both open out to a covered balcony, with twin walk in robes providing generous storage space. A separate bathroom and children’s study room complement the remaining two bedrooms. The house boasts a security system, integrated B&O sound and video throughout and ducted air conditioning to the upper floor levels.
Despite its high visibility from the street, the home remains intensely private, thanks largely to the majestic mature trees that surround the property giving a feel of absolute tranquillity that really does belie its urban context. And yet the property is still able to enjoy all the advantages of its enviable inner city locale with the CBD an easy 2km commute and the river just one street away.
