Spectacular in design and detail, this stylish mid-century revival in a north-west pool and garden setting takes you away from the everyday. Enriched with architectural flair under the watchful eye of meticulous owners, this modernist marvel offers contemporary ease with every family indulgence.
Holding court at the end of a prized Brighton East cul de sac, the home is a sublime example of post-war Architect, Kevin Borland’s mastery. Designed to capture daylong sun, soaring clerestory windows and skylights enhance original glazing, infusing light and luxury into a sprawling, single level layout.
Beyond a striking facade, Jaye Metcalf Designer Gardens have skillfully landscaped (zoned lighting and irrigation system) beautifully defined outdoor areas, using leafy foliage and mature hedging, to create an utterly private garden oasis. Every room offers verdant views through walls of glass, blurring the lines between inside and out while also accentuating a seamless al fresco flow. A home for all seasons with energy efficient solar power.
Custom designed to entertain, a gourmet kitchen is at the heart of an expansive living domain warmed by a stunning open fireplace. Sleek concrete adorns a long breakfast bar (70-bottle wine storage), brilliant study nook, Butler’s style pantry (purpose-built spice cupboard) and laundry, while dual Miele ovens, two integrated Miele dishwashers and volumes of soft close cabinetry ensure catering for any occasion is a breeze.
A fully-appointed BBQ kitchen takes pride of place in a bespoke outdoor room (recessed strip heating, fan, air conditioning, surround sound and ziptrak blinds). Dine al fresco, sip cocktails or chilled mineral water (on tap) in the cabana (handy dishdrawer to clean up at the end of the day) or relax in the pool and over-sized spa (app operated, gas heated and 28kw electric heat pump) - be spoiled for choice while watching the kids swim and play in a resort-style environment.
Inside a second living zone or huge rumpus cleverly doubles as additional accommodation with a wall-bed unit ideal for guests or sleepovers. Three further bedrooms occupy their own wing with a spacious master suite, walk-in robe and luxe en suite (custom vanity, underfloor heating and heated towel rail), a true highlight. The main bathroom is finished to the same exacting standard, kids’ rooms are fitted with built-in robes/desks and a dedicated study space is filled with northerly light.
A complete transformation has brought this home back to life, retaining its mid-century ambience in a thoroughly modern context. Prestige finishes and a long list of deluxe inclusions befit its premium court location within minutes of parkland, village shops, the tram, fine schools and Bayside’s best beaches. There is nothing left to do here except move in and start entertaining!
