Don't be fooled by the charming cottage façade – what lies beyond is one of the area's most spectacular surprises. Originally built at the turn of the century, this hidden gem has been reimagined into an architectural three-level showpiece, seamlessly blending old-world charm with modern luxury and clever design. Rich in character, full of warmth, and packed with unique features, this home is anything but ordinary.
Street Level – A Grand Welcome
Step inside to discover a luxurious master suite with its own French countryside–inspired courtyard. The exquisite ensuite features a deep freestanding bath beautifully framed by a soaring window, overlooking the serene courtyard - a space that feels every bit like a private spa retreat.
Don't miss the glass-encased vintage bottles in the entrance wall, a charming nod to the home's storied past.
Continue through to the heart of the home – a vast open plan kitchen, living and dining area, where every detail has been considered. The chef's kitchen includes granite benchtops, ample cabinetry, waist height dishwasher, walk-in pantry, and combustion fireplace for cosy evenings. Built-in speakers and natural flow to outdoor spaces make this an entertainer's dream.
Upstairs – Room for Everyone
Upstairs houses four modern spacious bedrooms, along with a central family bathroom and practical laundry chute.
Lower Level – More Than You Ever Expected
Downstairs delivers serious versatility with a games room, wine cellar, workshop, and a 5-car garage – a rare and invaluable find in this location.
But wait, there's more: Behind a whimsical Narnia-style cupboard lies one of the home's coolest hidden features: a dumbwaiter, offering easy direct access from the garage to the pantry. Say goodbye to lugging firewood or groceries – everything moves seamlessly from car to kitchen with a simple push of a button.
