EOI CLOSING THURSDAY 15TH APRIL AT 5:00PM WORLD-CLASS LIVING, BEACHSIDE LIFE
Designed by Max Architects for the family of a leading construction professional, this is a home of world-class quality for an unparalleled quality of life. Master-built with an assemblage of bluestone-wrapped tiles, concrete, rammed earth and glass as a backdrop to fine timbers and refined natural stones, this four bedroom, multi-workspace, five bathroom home is, above all else, a unparalleled family home.
Designed for a big busy life with an airy formal lounge wrapped by airy roof-hung sheers, the home unfolds in dramatic style with family and al fresco living-dining separated by soaring full-height commercial glazing…and steps up to a pool-view first-floor zone in a quiet rear children’s wing. Accommodating on the most luxurious scale with a full-width master domain (encompassing bedroom-retreat, 5 Star ensuite, dressing room and parent’s study area) and a second suite with robed dressing area and similarly luxe private ensuite, the home gets to work with a quiet home-office facing the lush central courtyard, and a triple-workstation study are beyond a contemporary library floating on a shelf of marble.
Blurring the boundaries between inside and out with a monumental rammed-earth kitchen ‘pod’ enclosing an elite Siemens, Bosch and Liebherr kitchen with Zip chill/boil/sparkle tap (inside) extending visually to a state-of-the-art BBQ kitchen (outside), the home entertains on a grand scale with a fully-appointed caterers’ pantry behind the scenes, and a massive 4.2m sealed-Calacatta marble dining-island front and centre.
Private spaces are equally well-conceived with plush queen-size bedrooms serviced by Italian-tiled bathrooms (one a second ensuite, another a pool facility with outdoor shower) with sensor heated towel-rails, while a Miele-appointed laundry features hydronic-heated drying cabinet and chute, and bespoke storage options including robe, media and mudroom-style cabinetry. From a curvaceous Italian-tile wall cocooning the freestanding master-bath, to the towering bathroom skylights capturing sun and starry views, to the split-level gallery that zones the master-domain privately to the front, this breathtaking home breaks new ground at every turn.
Bringing together the finest materials from across the world, the home unfolds with Italian travertine flagstone-tiles, steps down to rich American oak boards, entertains around German appliances, and splashes out with a glittering dual-heated pool and spa surfaced in Spanish glass-mosaics. A showcase of leading international brands, the home’s interiors feature hand-blown Mark Douglass glass pendants alongside sparkling Lambert et Fils and Space lighting, a 360° rotating Oblica fireplace floating in the al fresco area, and wall-hung Alessi WCs hidden in the bathrooms.
Supported by the latest technology, the home is fully Cbus-automated with lighting, security climate-control, window-furnishings, media and Sonos music all managed by the system. Climate controlled over multiple zones with reverse-cycle air-conditioning plus hydronic heating (panel and extensively in-floor), the home is secured by alarm, CCTV, keyless entry, and internal and external intercom, and made easy to enjoy by fully-automated pool functions via Smartphone application. Even the outdoors go above and beyond with vast loft storage above the oversize double auto-garage, and 5000L water-storage underground.
Creatively landscaped in approx 803sqm grounds, this benchmark home claims a landmark position between the Hampton St’s cafes and restaurants and the bay, just 400 steps to the sand, a five minute walk to the stations and a last minute dash (or single station) to the most highly-sought Bayside schools.
