Striking from the very first glance, this architecturally designed residence is anything but ordinary. Showcasing a bold combination of classic brick and dramatic Shou Sugi Ban (Japanese charred timber) cladding, the exterior sets the tone for the high-end quality and thoughtful design that continues throughout. Positioned on an expansive 9,015sqm (more or less) lifestyle section, this is a property that delivers both presence and practicality - and opportunities like this are rarely available.
Step inside and be welcomed by polished concrete floors flowing through the entrance and into the light-filled open-plan living zone, where a soaring cathedral ceiling creates a true sense of space and architectural drama. Large ranch sliders provide seamless indoor/outdoor flow to a generous deck and outdoor entertaining area, perfectly positioned for long summer evenings and relaxed gatherings.
At the heart of the home, the designer kitchen impresses with top-of-the-line appliances, a tiled splash-back, a generous walk-in pantry and a central island bench that naturally becomes the social hub. The open-plan dining and living area is complemented by a separate lounge with its own partially covered deck - offering multiple spaces to unwind or entertain in style. A dedicated study provides the perfect work-from-home solution, while year-round comfort is assured with a log burner and two heat pumps.
Four spacious double bedrooms accommodate family and guests with ease, headlined by a beautiful master suite featuring outdoor access, a walk-in robe and an elegant ensuite with tiled flooring. The family bathroom is equally luxurious, complete with a freestanding bath and polished concrete flooring. A separate laundry with extensive bench space, stunning cabinetry and a tiled feature wall adds further everyday practicality.
Car enthusiasts, hobbyists or those needing serious storage will appreciate the double internal-access garage plus a separate three-bay shed with two lockable bays, one open bay, and power.
Outdoors, the grounds are as thoughtfully curated as the home itself. Beautiful landscaping with a blend of natives and grasses enhances the setting, while six raised garden beds and established fruit trees support a more self-sufficient lifestyle. A mature boundary hedge provides privacy and shelter, and three fenced paddocks offer flexibility for animals or lifestyle pursuits. Ample off-street parking completes the package.
Architectural distinction, premium finishes, and lifestyle scale - all set in the sought-after Kirwee location. Enjoy the convenience of being within walking distance to Thirsty Acres Bar and Restaurant, close to Kirwee Treehouse Early Learning Centre, and an easy commute into the city. Properties of this calibre, with this level of design and land size, are tightly held - your prompt inspection is strongly encouraged.
