A modern ode to the beachside Bungalow over grand poolside proportions
Taking the nostalgic charm of c1925 and delivering it to a 731sqm north-facing parcel, this four-bedroom bungalow has been reimagined to grand elegant style and a timeless remodel over a 300sqm monumental family-worthy floorplan.
Set in a commanding position between likeminded character homes and behind an ultra-secure electric gate, this home particularly catches the eye amongst designer gardens, sunny verandah and stained-glass framed double doors presenting a dignified street appeal from the get-go.
A wide wainscoted formal entry greets between original pine floorboards and 3.3m decorative ceilings, hinting at the capacity of this truly tremendous footprint and then doubling down at a carpeted master that bestows a feature fireplace, filtered natural light through brand new plantation shutters, ensuite, built-in robes and a massive walk-in closet almost as large as the room itself.
To the left, a front-facing formal lounge - or fifth bedroom receives more of that glorious north-facing sun, creating the perfect space to bask with a novel or curl up with a cuppa in front of the fireplace.
Moving further through the vast hallway that offers enough space to utilise as a mud room, you'll find one extra-large room that was originally two, merged to create the ultimate living zone or retreat for the younger generation perhaps two younger kids that love to share, or a teenager craving their own sleep and study quarters.
Recently installed loop carpets imprint on an immense open plan living area, merging enough space for a family-style modular, 10-seater dining table and study nook, whilst a sneaky wine cellar is well-hid underfoot allowing you to surprise your guests with a fancy Reserve mid-dinner party.
Connecting via granite-topped servery, the chef's kitchen successfully aims to delight, bake and roast for the masses, featuring 900mm Smeg cooktop, matching oven and Miele dishwasher, walk-in pantry and an unencumbered island to perch for pre-dinner drinks.
Tucked to the back, two further carpeted bedrooms both boast built-in robes completing the slumber accommodations and adding that essential flexibility for the ever-evolving seasons of family life.
Glass double doors connect to a Tuscan-style courtyard, completely enclosable thanks to Ziptrak blinds and equipped to make an entertaining statement with Travertine stone, privacy-inducing rendered walls, tranquil water feature and dazzling solar heated swimming pool this outdoor oasis will be a magical backdrop to your family summers.
To finish, a secure carport behind electric roller door extends the full depth of the block, providing ample off-street and undercover parking for family vehicles, trailers, boats and bikes, along with the perfectly formed rear space to utilise as a home gym.
From this refined and plentiful home base, you'll find yourself moments from reputable schooling, just 200m from Sandison Reserve, 350m from the nearest tram stop and 500m to the mecca of Jetty Road that connects you to shopping amenities, cafés, restaurants, the coastline and everything inbetween
