4/38 Belgravia Avenue, Mont Albert North VIC 3129

Completed earlier this year and built over two levels to create distinctly zoned living, this 3 bedroom - possible 4, 2.5 bathroom home is a stunning example of what can be achieved when a brilliant design is executed using high quality materials, exceptional workmanship and an unwavering focus on attention to detail, and then furnished with style and dramatic flair. The result is a harmonious balance of architectural “wow” and a palpable sense of peace.

A commissioned façade including angled timber battens gives little indication of what lies inside but the entry level immediately impresses with beautiful Queensland spotted gum flooring in the foyer and along an elevated walkway overlooking the stairwell. Off the walkway are two spacious double bedrooms with triple built-in robes and good natural light from north facing windows. The bedrooms are separated by a large casual living space which could be used as a games or media room. To the right of the entrance foyer on one side of a door which provides direct access to the garage is a family bathroom with separate shower and bath, designer tiling and high quality fittings, on the other a toilet/powder room.

The timber stairs to the lower level end on a slightly elevated platform which acts almost as a sign to stop and take in the view across the superbly designed and presented kitchen and living/dining room which flows out through huge, floor-to-ceiling timber bi-fold doors across two walls onto a paved alfresco dining/entertaining space and private rear garden. The overall effect created by the light, space, contrasting colours and shapes is dramatic, yet at the same time surprisingly tranquil.

The kitchen is designed to make day-to-day living and entertaining easy with a 900mm freestanding Smeg oven and gas hotplates, glass splashback, loads of soft closing drawers and cupboards and premium Caesarstone used for benchtops and the huge island bench/breakfast bar with waterfall edges.

But of course there’s more. Hidden away behind the living space is the master bedroom suite cleverly designed to incorporate a spacious walk through dressing room/wardrobe, between the bedroom and ensuite bathroom with its designer tiling and quality tapware. Unobtrusively tucked away opposite the master suite is a family sized laundry with ample storage space.

With so much thought having gone into the planning of this 6 Star energy rated home there are numerous additional features including double glazed windows and centralised ducted reverse cycle heating and cooling throughout, Foxtel & Telstra connection to all bedrooms and living spaces, video security intercom, LED lighting, double auto garage, water tanks serving the laundry and toilets, and a flourishing rooftop garden.
