Discover a unique family retreat on a substantial block in Mawson

You could be forgiven for expecting something modest from a first glance at 15 Jelbart Street in Mawson.

In fact, with a facade largely hidden behind lush gardens, it would be hard to know what to expect at all.

But some homes save their best stories for once you step inside.

In there lies a sprawling family retreat set across a huge 2146 square metres of beautifully terraced, landscaped grounds.

Its classic Pettit & Sevitt design combines split levels, natural materials, soaring windows and a timeless sense of flow that intimately connects it to its surroundings.

“This timeless, sun-kissed Pettit and Sevitt design has been tastefully renovated, and is the ideal retreat for multigenerational living and those wanting space and seclusion,” says agent Michael Potter of Michael Potter Real Estate.

Two distinct wings shape the home, giving large families ample space, privacy and flexibility. Light-filled living areas overlook gardens, while the renovated kitchen pairs warm timber accents with stone surfaces, thoughtful storage and a leafy outlook.

Hybrid timber flooring runs throughout the kitchen, dining and hallway, softening the modern palette and anchoring the home in natural textures.

Each bathroom has been tastefully renovated in earthy tones with contemporary fixtures, while the bedrooms – five in total – enjoy garden views and generous storage.

A rumpus room on the lower level opens directly to the outdoors, creating a natural transition to the expansive backyard.

And what a backyard it is. A solar-heated pool, multiple courtyards, mature gardens and quiet pockets for reading or coffee add up to a private outdoor sanctuary. Fruit trees, flowering maples, veggie gardens and wide lawns turn the block into a living landscape.
