Brighton

In a prized Brighton beachside neighbourhood, this generously proportioned landmark family home set on a large 873 sqm (approx.) block with a sweeping front lawn and glorious gardens, has multiple living areas and a free-flowing layout perfect for grand scale entertaining.

The original, double brick residence harks back to 1916 and carries the hallmarks of both late Edwardian and Art Deco workmanship including ornate plaster cornices, ceiling roses timber fretwork, and leadlight windows. Bathed in natural light, a welcoming entry and wide hallway capped by high ceilings and skylights, is flanked by the front formal rooms, and leads down to the north-facing open family/living zone and rear garden terrace. Stunning Deco period details feature in the spacious formal living areas with OFPs and ornate mantles. Wide double doors can be closed to zone separate spaces or left open to create a flow-through to the dining room and another lounge area with bespoke cabinetry. The downstairs master bedroom has BIRs and a large ensuite bathroom with double vanities and walk-in shower while the two original downstairs bedrooms have been converted to studies, one has access to another bathroom with shower. The stone chef's kitchen has an abundance of storage and bench space and is newly fitted with Neff cooking appliances including a 900 mm gas cooktop, and an integrated microwave and convection ovens and the casual family meals/sitting area has French doors opening out to the brick paved courtyard lined with lush garden beds.
