Architectural Masterpiece
This is a home that embraces you with an immediate impression of light, space and undeniable sense of sophistication. Located in a quiet street in Kingston, this home is surrounded by mature gardens that offer complete privacy and frame views of Mount Wellington from most areas of the home.
Warmly welcoming and crafted to the highest of standards, this home beautifully presents classic style embellished with exposed masonry and eye-catching flooring incorporating polished timber, soft carpets, and dramatic slate.
The quality of natural light is remarkable with feature & highlight windows positioned throughout. Designed and built on ‘greensmart’ principles, with all living areas and bedrooms facing north to take advantage of the winter sun while the solid masonry walls in the living areas act as a thermal mass that stores daytime warmth and releases it throughout the evenings. Full insulation, double-glazed windows and premium double honeycomb blinds maximise energy efficiency.
Ideal for entertaining or for relaxed family life, the spacious open plan living area is truly the heart of the home that opens out onto a private and sunny deck that is the ideal place for outdoor entertaining and alfresco dining. The stylish kitchen attractively blends classic white cabinetry, a surplus of drawers providing utility, large pantry and crowned with top quality Bosch appliances including double-door fridge/freezer, dishwasher, pyrolytic oven and microwave/convection oven and gas cooktop. The formal loungeroom is centred around a luxuriant wood-burning convector fireplace making this the ideal space for a more intimate setting on colder winter evenings.
The generous master suite boasts a walk-in wardrobe and private ensuite. The main bathroom is family sized with twin vanities, walk in shower and corner spa. For convenience, there is a powder room nearby to the living areas, ideal for guests to use.
The integrated office nook provides the perfect home office space with a built-in desk and ample cupboard and drawer space. One of the linen cupboards has been converted into a wine cellar with capacity for almost 200 bottles.
Surrounded by native groundcover, trees and shrubs, manicured lawn and a backyard area with established fruit trees including apples, apricots, limes, lemons, cumquats, nectarines and peaches plus ample vegetable, herb and flower beds. Offering plenty of parking with a double carport plus a truly generous garage with room for multiple vehicles plus space for a workshop and storage.
