163 John Liston Drive, Newport VIC 3015

A design of enduring modern excellence, enhanced by a contemporary renovation of outstanding quality, means this highly desirable home meets every modern need with a refined, relaxed ease that's perfectly in keeping with the way life is lived today. Proximity to the Mason Street shopping hub, Newport train station and the water at Williamstown adds its own exceptional appeal to a property that achieves an ideal balance between quiet and convenience, seclusion and centrality.

The charm of a central courtyard and the alluring alfresco atmosphere of the decked, elegantly landscaped backdrop deliver outdoor character and pleasing natural light to ground level spaces that include two entirely separate zones for living and dining that are complemented by an open-plan kitchen. Stone surfaces, a central island bench, first class appliances, a fitted wine fridge and integrated refrigerator and freezer reflect the care and commitment that characterized the renovation. A study desk and a separate laundry complete the downstairs dimensions of this superb design.

Above, the sense of style and the attraction of the spaces is accentuated by the accommodation. A main bedroom featuring a balcony retreat, walk-in robe, built-in robes and a sophisticated dual vanity sky-lit ensuite sets the luxury standard for two further double bedrooms, each incorporating built-in robes and stylish desks, share a sky-lit family bathroom fitted and finished with a perfectionist's attention to detail. Additional flexibility in the form of a fourth bedroom with its own bathroom above the double garage enhances this home's family credentials. The capacity to perform a role as an extra living zone, a studio or work space or even as a source of short stay accommodation income illustrates the ultimate versatility of these vibrant proportions.

Garage access from John Liston Lane creates a convenient conclusion to an address of evident appeal, ready to enjoy and certain to offer ongoing success.
