Overview
A rare fusion of character and modern design
Privately set on a magnificent 1,611sqm allotment, this remarkable mudbrick residence has been completely reimagined through an extensive modern renovation and architectural extension, creating a home where timeless character meets refined contemporary luxury.
Much like the revered heritage homes that conceal breathtaking modern transformations behind classic exteriors, this home offers a rare fusion of warmth, design and sophistication.
Behind its charming mudbrick façade lies an interior that feels both grand and inviting. Warm natural materials, vaulted timber beam ceilings and a series of thoughtfully designed split levels create architectural interest throughout, while skylights, double-glazed windows and full-height sheer curtains invite natural light to pour into every corner of the home. Timber flooring flows seamlessly through the living zones, complemented by elegant stone benchtops and refined finishes including microcement, creating a palette that feels both contemporary and timeless. Timber cladding further enhances the home's architectural presence externally.
The lower level introduces a welcoming lounge centered around a crackling Coonara wood fire, creating a cosy retreat during the cooler months. From here, the home opens into an impressive open-plan kitchen, dining and living domain designed for both relaxed family living and effortless entertaining.
The beautifully appointed kitchen showcases premium finishes including an integrated refrigerator, expansive stone surfaces and a generous walk-in butler's pantry, with a dedicated cellar positioned on the same level for convenience and functionality. Large openings connect the interior to a covered alfresco area, creating seamless indoor-outdoor living and entertaining overlooking the landscaped gardens and north-east facing terrace.
Two generously sized bedrooms with built-in robes are positioned on the lower level and are serviced by luxuriously finished bathrooms featuring floor-to-ceiling tiling, underfloor heating and heated towel rails.
Continuing the home's striking split-level design, the upper level reveals two further bedrooms including a stunning master retreat complete with a walk-in robe and elegant ensuite. A dedicated study positioned across another split level, together with a dramatic void overlooking the living space below, enhances the sense of openness and architectural scale.
Completing the property is exceptional supporting infrastructure including a double garage with its own powder room, a separate double carport with a versatile storage room or workshop.
Surrounded by beautifully landscaped grounds and offering a rare sense of space and privacy, this is a home of remarkable character and craftsmanship. A truly special lifestyle property where rustic charm and contemporary design exist in perfect balance.
