Occupying a superb 2463m² (approx.) parcel, this custom double-storey masterpiece offers sophisticated style and quality comfort for effortless everyday living and exceptional entertaining. Lavish proportions are joined by a host of extravagant features to create an atmosphere of elegant luxury, with an ultra-wide entry hall and open lounge with a gas log fireplace creating a wonderful introduction to the expansive family home.
Beyond, open living and dining areas congregate at the showpiece kitchen, heralding stone benchtops, a generous island, classic Shaker and frosted glass cabinetry, a walk-in pantry and pull-out pantry, a 900mm wide Baumatic oven, ASKO dishwasher, and integrated microwave, while a bespoke combined wine cellar and coffee station testifies to the personal attention to detail prevalent throughout.
A full wall of bifold doors with retractable flyscreens allows easy flow to the alfresco and outdoor kitchenette with a plumbed-to-gas BBQ and sink, underpinned by glorious solid Ironwood decking extending to the oasis of the rear yard. Also to the ground floor is a home theatre hardwired for a surround sound cinematic experience, a large frontage study, and a powder room.
A stunning modern staircase ascends to the upstairs retreat/leisure space and accommodation of four robed bedrooms including a palatial main bedroom suite with a sitting area, private balcony with leafy views, extensive built-in robes, and a spa ensuite with twin vanities. Both bathrooms are appointed with stone surfaces and offer sumptuous bathing with private leafy outlooks, sparkling showers, and heated towel rails.
Outside, the verdant grounds are a haven of discovery, with endless points of interest. Hosting over 25 roses, mature nectarine, peach, apricot, cherry and olive trees, a strawberry patch, raised vegetable beds, gorgeous old stringybark trees, and a fire pit area, the intentionally landscaped tiered gardens cascade to a lush fernery with a creek bed, Japanese maples and a tranquil water feature.
Remarkably, the property also comes with a 2nd driveway (access off Leafy Retreat) providing gated entry to rear yard parking suitable for a caravan, boat, or large vehicles. This premium offering also boasts endless high-end inclusions and brilliant eco-friendly enhancements including plantation shutters and double glazing throughout, hydronic heating, solar panels, 25,000-litre capacity water tanks, ducted vacuum, a garden shed, and a remote controlled double garage.
Brilliantly located for blissful privacy in the esteemed Morningside Estate renowned for its award-winning sensitive ecological design, it's close to Gisborne Secondary College, the golf course, and Gisborne township. A property of unique refinement that is its own class of paradise.
