Uncompromising quality and an extensive list of luxury lifestyle inclusions define this astonishingly detailed period style home in the prestige Mar Lodge Estate.
Paying homage to historic grandeur, the façade faithfully replicates key Edwardian design elements including tuck pointed brickwork, pitched slate roof with terracotta capping and gorgeous, rose bush entwined wrap around verandah with tessellated floor tiles.
Inside, the period style touches of decorative stained glass feature windows, high ceilings and cornices, hallway arches, dado rail hallway moulding, heritage look fireplace, ornate carpeting, and texturally arresting formal drapes seamlessly layer through a home specifically designed around 21st century family liveability.
To the right of the wide polished Western Australian Karri timber floored hallway entrance, an elegant formal lounge with hidden projector and screen for a cosy family night at the movies, through to formal dining. To the left, the main bedroom with triple casement semi-bay windows, boasts large walk-in and ensuite with full-width shower and double stone topped vanity.
