A delight to view. An inspiration to own.

This eclectic home, with Blue Plaque Heritage Status, has been a haven for only four families since being built in 1903 - and is now poised to meet Family No 5!
Elegant and welcoming, this south entry, north facing home is filled with warmth and light, featuring architect designed exterior structures and upgrading by Gordon Leith, Marcus Holmes and Myra Fassler-Kamstra. Offering substantial accommodation – the terrazzo-paved entrance hall flows to the stylish marble-floored dining room and the 1000-book library, which invites long evenings by the open fire. The enclosed sun room beckons, accessing a stunning terrace overlooking the illuminated, verdant garden. The master suite includes a luxurious marble bathroom and dressing room, leading to a welcoming pyjama lounge with concertina windows and wonderful views. There are two fitted studies, and a delightful and gracious drawing room.
A number of beautiful stained glass windows, by Stephanie Fassler-Ross, add decorative appeal within the home. A wide gallery leads to the kitchen and family room.
The highly functional country kitchen, with Oregon and yellowwood cupboards, marble counters, Portuguese tiles, porcelain sinks, offers a breakfast room, a scullery and laundry, and incredible storage. The specially designed pull-out shelves, space for two dishwashers and extensive counter space, fulfills every domestic need. Entertaining is easy with the adjacent, spacious family room and massive open fireplace. The dining courtyard, plus concertina doors from the family room to the sunken diamond terrace with illuminated water feature, provide for wonderful al fresco dining on balmy summer evenings!
Numerous paved terraces and patios, all accessed from reception rooms, set the scene for drinks or dinner on warm evenings……sparkling lights fill the night sky, while whispering trees in the gentle night breeze is the only sound you hear.
The house is fully cabled for wifi and internet with a dedicated server cabinet providing fast access throughout.
The delightful pool area with Mosaic by Andrew Lindsay, covered patio and kitchenette, invites lazy summer days. A charming fountain, pond and gracious double stairway lead to the Japanese-themed Gym, nestling within a Zen-inspired garden, and includes a shower room and refreshment station, private patio with Jacuzzi.
The amazing 80 Sq M European-style loft apartment, featuring dormer windows and balconies, offers a fabulous lifestyle for older children or young couples or even an income producing option.
