Captivating Family Entertainer with North-Facing Poolside Perfection

YOU MUST REGISTER TO PARTICIPATE IN THE BOARD ROOM AUCTION ON MONDAY 10TH MAY AT 5PM AT NICK JOHNSTONE REAL ESTATE BRIGHTON OFFICE.

Standing out with Spanish Mission style on a tranquil tree-lined street, this fully renovated 4 bedroom, 2.5 bathroom entertainer seamlessly integrates the old with the new over two levels of light-filled luxury. Graced with a north-facing rear and a showpiece swimming pool, this is first-class family living set on an impressive 665sqm (approx.).

Beyond a triple-arched porch entry, enjoy versatile formal living and dining rooms, each framed by open fireplaces under towering decorative ceilings. A sparkling chef-friendly kitchen boasts an imposing Calacatta marble island bench, slick stone surfaces, and quality stainless-steel appliances including a 900mm Ilve oven and 6-burner cooktop plus a high-end Miele dishwasher. Capturing northern light with ease, spacious open-plan living and dining is purpose-built for entertaining, further enhanced by the timeless appeal of hardwood flooring.

Spill outside to a paved terrace and a lush lawn, anchored by a yellow-crowned Robinia and a private leafy perimeter. Fully equipped, an outdoor kitchen turns up the heat with a top-of-the-range Matador BBQ and wine fridge, while the real star of the show is a heated swimming pool and spa, ready for family fun at all times. Opening up through bi-fold doors, a perfectly placed poolhouse features a kitchenette, WC, and integrated bench seating. All of this irresistible alfresco enjoyment is a true game-changer, ideal for everyday relaxing, indulging and entertaining in the northern sun.

Showcasing bedrooms on both levels, the main is superbly staged on the ground floor serviced by walk-in robes and a skylit ensuite with a double rainfall shower, heated towel rail, and a stone-topped vanity. Venture upstairs to a roomy retreat, the remaining robed bedrooms, and a family-sized bathroom boasting a luxurious bath, walk-in shower, heating, and a separate WC.

Comprehensive features include a large laundry with ample storage and an upstairs chute, ducted heating/cooling, security measures, storage solutions, solar panelling, a double carport, and a converted single garage now showing off as an air-conditioned man cave with home theatre capabilities. Spanish Mission period features include exquisite lead-lighting, arched verandah entry, stucco render, picture rails, and delightfully intricate ceiling and cornice artistry.
