A picturesque presence in a prized pocket, this impeccably presented, up to 5-bedroom period home perfectly meets the requirements of a growing family with flexible zones to work, rest and play. Surrounded by parks, prestige schools and the golf course with village shops, public transport and the beach nearby, this outstanding property has it all.

Beautifully styled with contemporary class, timeless Austin Design interiors flow seamlessly from inside to out. The original quarters play host to an ambient formal sitting room complete with decorative ceilings, leadlight windows and an open fireplace, while 2 spacious bedrooms offer the option of a guest suite with built-in robes and bathroom access, and a fifth bedroom or full-size home office.

A designer kitchen, wrapped in sleek Caesarstone and appointed with Miele appliances and custom cabinetry, services a gorgeous meals area or dine al fresco under the poolside pavilion. French doors step out of the stunning family domain (gas log fire and media cabinetry) into a deep, north-easterly rear starring an entertaining deck and built-in BBQ. Adding to the immense family appeal is a solar heated pool, outdoor shower, pool facility powder room and a fully-fitted workshop.

Follow an elegant staircase, lined with library style shelving, upstairs to an exceptional master retreat boasting a second study ideal for both parents working from home or potential dressing room. Sheer curtains and design blinds open to a pool-view balcony, while a walk-in robe and Calacatta marble, dual vanity, en suite with freestanding bath add to an overall sense of luxury. Two further queen size bedrooms, each with custom designed built-in robes/desks (hard wired internet connections) share a Calacatta marble bathroom.

The overall quality and comfort of this wonderfully appointed home is enhanced by a wealth of period features as well as pendant lighting, Plantation Shutters, ducted heating/cooling, reverse cycle air conditioning, ceiling fans, security alarm and automatic garage/carport for 2-3 cars. In walking distance to sought after amenities with approved Austin Design plans to further extend the rear available.
