Kamesburgh c. 1919 Grand Family Opportunity

Make history on 1,338 sqm with one of Sandringham's great period estates. Built as a secondary home for the owners of Brighton's historic Kamesburgh House (now a Star of the Sea campus), Kamesburgh c.1919 stands today as one of Sandringham's finest beachside family homes.

Opening up beyond palm-fringed gardens and a grand central lobby to offer ballroom-sized formal lounge, function-sized dining room and exquisitely detail (including rich panelling, elaborate plasterwork and spectacular fireplaces), this notable home is a rare and beautiful example of the Arts and Crafts era. Above all else it is a warm and welcoming family home; respectfully renovated to offer five bedrooms, four bathrooms and multiple living zones - inside and out.

Re-purposed for a modern family with the original "smoking room" fitted with home-theatre and sized for a billiard table and kitchen-family dining flowing seamlessly through bi-folds to central decking, the home steps up to a You Yangs-view first-floor living zone (currently configured with lounge and gym areas)... and steps out to tree-shaded tiered decking above a fully-tiled glass-fenced pool and spa in the garden's sunniest northern corner.

Vastly accommodating with a spectacular first-floor master domain (comprising bay-view bedroom, dressing-room and retreat), a balconied secondary suite and multiple WIRs, the home has study areas upstairs and down (one a window-walled home-office, the other a privacy-enhancing retreat). Appointed to prestige standards with a glittering stone and elite appliance kitchen, glossy polished porcelain bathrooms (including two private ensuites and a pool-access bathroom), there is cellaring in the former "silver-room", a cloak room and every contemporary convenience (including reverse-cycle ducted heating and air-conditioning, alarm, video intercom, surround-sound and theatre-wiring).

Tank-watered and creatively landscaped around grand original plantings, the home is positioned just two blocks from the bay, two minutes to the Village and station, and 200m to the Royal Ave parklands and BGS-Firbank's Sandringham House. A home for the generations renovated for the best of today's family living, this is an historic opportunity.
