Streamlined luxury brings resort-inspired perfection to a sought-after location, minutes from Haileybury, St Leonard's College and Were Street Village shops and cafes. Richard Kerr Architecture and Chelsea Hing Interiors won three Bayside Built Environment Awards for this four-bedroom hideaway, where pool views, contemplative gardens and year-round greenery are calming and precision-crafted. It deserves its accolades, with the family room featuring a sumptuous sunken lounge, the dining room with a hidden cocktail bar, bespoke cabinetry and Foscarini lighting, and the gourmet kitchen with concealed Gaggenau ovens, Miele cooktop and dishwasher, and stainless steel and stone benches. Work from home in the big study or use it as a luxe lounge, there's a media room/ground-floor fourth bedroom option, and a main bedroom suite like no other. It's a sleek space with a curved wall encasing the bedroom and sitting area, a round skylight bringing sunshine and sky views into the ultra-luxe alba and nero marquina marble ensuite, and both walk-in and built-in wardrobes. Considered use of concrete, glass, timber and glass is a winning combination, with hydronically heated concrete floors, huge windows, oak veneer joinery, and steel pillars. Outside is where the resort vibe rules. Sit by the self-cleaning pool on the north-facing deck, swim in salt-chlorinated water, and find a shady spot to dine outdoors on the big undercover terrace. Exceptional planning underpins every aspect of this celebrated home. Gaze out to a series of private courtyard spaces and look within at the quality that comes from having a dedicated study nook, Corian and marble bathroom, curved walls, ducted air conditioning, a remote-control car gate, security system, and storerooms. A landmark home ready for everyday enjoyment and unforgettable entertaining.
