62 South Road
Brighton

Visionary design has transformed this 1920s home into a magnificent family hideaway, close to the beach, Were Street's cafes, South Road's schools and Hampton Street. The Federation Arts and Crafts exterior is magnificent and the state-of-the-art interior exceptional, thanks to a prestige renovation. Contemporary style is at the heart of the brilliant family room and gourmet kitchen with butler's pantry, and the original lounge is north-facing and beautifully updated. Custom-designed finishes and features put this home into the luxury category, with a huge double-glazed sliding door opening onto the garden, Caesar stone marble kitchen benches, Neff ovens and induction cooktop, plantation shutters, and hydronic heating. Great care has gone into the fitout, with a wine display room, extensive cabinetry for easy storage, remote-control gates and coded entry. Impressive design has created five bedrooms, and the ground-floor main bedroom is enhanced with a new ensuite and walk-in wardrobe. Exacting fitout shows in the laundry's drying cupboard and pullout baskets, there's roof storage, spotted gum floorboards, and built-in beds upstairs. Outdoor living is tailormade for relaxing and entertaining, thanks to a deck and integrated barbecue, automated shade awning and blinds, soft play surface and cubby house. Easy walk to Brighton Beach station, St Leonard's College, Haileybury, Xavier's Kostka Hall, and a choice of primary schools.
