One Of A Kind In The City Of Manningham
Uniquely designed and owner built, this bespoke family residence which also offers development potential (STCA) has no equal in the City of Manningham.
Solidly built to withstand the test of time with a carefully considered Modernist design hallmarked by its physical and visual interaction with its scenic exterior and natural materials that include beautiful slate floors, extensive use of warm timber and stone walls embracing the two open fireplaces delivering warmth to the lower-level family living and upstairs retreat (with balcony access), this stately home presents a living experience unique to itself and sure to be appreciated by anyone lucky enough to call this place “home”.
Soaring across three-levels with a vast collection of living zones all configured to capture the Northern light through 6mm toughened glass tinted Belgian Grey windows, formal dining room and spacious bedrooms serviced by two bathrooms (family bathroom with corner spa), living by grand proportions is as obvious a statement as the remarkable sense of craftsmanship associated with this exquisite residence, which boasts double brick construction, a beautifully crafted timber and slate staircase and a Continental-inspired interior that's beautiful to look at and relaxing to be in.
Rich timber benchtops and cabinets in the thoughtfully-appointed kitchen (with huge walk-in pantry) offer the perfect complement against the high timber ceilings and slate floors underfoot, and when the sun is out and the breeze is fresh, slide open the timber-edged glass doors that backdrop all living areas and enjoy the benefits of seamless indoor-outdoor living.
Venture outside and marvel at the pristine nature and enormous size of the peaceful backyard, home to a large entertaining area looking across the sprawling lawn, an assortment of fruit trees and a rear vegetable garden. Such is the space on offer that those with a desire to develop (STCA) or even introduce a swimming pool can do so with total peace of mind.
CCTV coupled with high fences promotes a premium sense of security and peace of mind, while three-phase power, hydronic heating, lockable doors with just the one key, rear garden shed, double garage, off street parking for 6 cars in the driveway and drive-through access into the backyard adds further appeal. Those keen to earn a passive income could also be tempted to sublet the lower-level bedroom/office given its private outdoor entry and ability to be separated from the rest of the household.
Conveniently located within walking distance of bus services, Cat Jump Park and Our Lady of the Pines Primary School and only moments to Tunstall Square shops, the trendy Donburn shopping strip and the Eastern Freeway/Eastlink.
