A stunning architectural renovation and extension with show-stopping style by Miller Robertson Architects has artfully propelled this spectacular family home from its classic Californian origins into a league of its own.
Saturated in cascades of natural light courtesy of electrically operated clerestory windows, the vast spaces for living, dining and everyday activities are crowned by a combination of lofty 12-feet and breathtaking 20-feet ceilings. Blending a modern design with sleek cabinetry and neutral tones, the gourmet kitchen delivers a cornerstone of family life with its high-end Miele 900mm oven, gas cooktop and semi-integrated dishwasher, waterfall-edge breakfast bar/central island bench, stone benchtops and adjoining Butler’s pantry.
Contributing to the wow factor of it all, glass doors create a seamless transition to an alfresco entertaining sanctuary centred on a glass-fenced 14-metre solar/gas-heated lap pool with spa, extensive timber decking, low-maintenance synthetic-turfed garden and aesthetically landscaped native vegetation.
Ready to transport you to another world, yet so close to everything that makes Elwood such an in-demand neighbourhood in which to live, the home also features a lounge or the option of a home office, main bedroom with ensuite bathroom, two more bedrooms, family bathroom, laundry with outside access and prized off-street parking for two cars.
Energy-efficient hydronic heating, split-system air conditioners, two fireplaces, alarm system, ceiling fans, a built-in barbeque, wiring for sound, attic and under-floor storage, two sheds and sliding stacker doors cleverly separating the living room from the family room are additional inclusions.
A walk away from the Village, beach, buses, schools and Elwood Park, it’s the ultimate Bayside entertainer on a significantly sized allotment of approximately 479 square metres.
