Set on a scale sought by families, this 5-bedroom plus home office, 4.5-bathroom Brighton beauty will accommodate your every requirement with grace, space and a north-facing, heated pool. Nestled within a picturesque streetscape in a peaceful locale sought after for its walkability to Bay Street shops, restaurants and the city train as well as close proximity to leading schools and the beach.

Generous original rooms have been transformed to feature a just-completed, two-person home office and two robed bedrooms each with luxe ensuite providing an ideal master alternative or guest suite. An inviting wood-panelled sitting room (open fireplace) retains all the character and charm of the 1880s with an antique bluestone doorstep signifying a seamless transition from old to new.

Exceptionally extended for family enjoyment, the living and dining domain (open fireplace and automatic blinds) captures the essence of this substantial home. The indoors continues outside to vast covered decking, a full BBQ kitchen (bar fridge) and deep grassy rear creating a blissful alfresco setting. Kids are also catered for with plenty of space to run around or swim in the solar heated pool basking in daylong sun.

The kitchen is a dream for any entertainer with its custom design and high-end finish. Expanses of natural stone extend from a broad breakfast bar to a butler’s style pantry with endless storage solutions such as an integrated bench caddy/knife block. Quality European appliances including a steam oven, convection oven, induction cooktop, double Qasair range, Miele dishwasher and Billi-tap ensure cooking is a breeze.

Superbly zoned with family flexibility in mind, the upper level flaunts a sound-proof rumpus or media room and study space as well as three more oversized bedrooms (built-in robes). The main bedroom is a private retreat for parents inclusive of a tree-top balcony, walk-in robe and luxury dual vanity ensuite boasting fully-automated mirrors, double shower and LED strip lighting.

Solid brick with beautiful period details including timber fretwork, high ceilings, leadlight entry and polished floorboards complementing a meticulous renovation. Zoned ducted heating/air conditioning, excellent storage, powder room, stone-finished laundry with chute and designer bathrooms. Also surveillance security, keyless entry, alarm, bike storage and dual off-street parking (provision for electric car-charging).
