UNDER OFFER BY NICK FRENCH and LINDA DIGBY, C&CO REAL ESTATE!
From the desk of multi award winning building designer Sam Martin, this superb four-bedroom, two-bathroom home combines a rare sophistication and grandeur with a supremely comfortable and practical layout. Designed from the heart, this is a timeless building, wherein every modern amenity exists amidst bespoke and awe-inspiring craftsmanship.
This unique residence is tucked away on what was once an orchard, with three other private homes. A tree-lined laneway leads into this friendly enclave, and the crafted stone walls give an immediate sense of quality and security, but this is just the beginning!
Discover 2/16 Mather Road via the tall cedar front door, or enter through the matching, automatic garage door with a convenient shopper's entrance. Either way, you will instantly find soaring, generous spaces, well-honed materials and strong design coming together. The formal entry takes you into a huge loungeroom with 3.4 metre ceilings. Northern light floods in, bathing the grand structure of internal arches, which define the ground floor living spaces. This is one of the most unique and beautiful modern houses you will find. It's the perfect fusion of classical inspiration, bold design, and contemporary convenience. The polished concrete floors are inlayed with mother of pearl, and the pristine white cabinetry and stonework of the kitchen combine with the magnificent, classical proportions of the building to create a work of art.
The kitchen is spacious, elegant and practical with plenty of storage, including a floor-to-ceiling pantry. There's a 900mm chef's oven and a 6-burner gas cooktop, a dishwasher, and a large, deep sink. The long Caesar stone island bench makes the perfect breakfast bar and gives you a wonderful entertainer's "stage" for cooking amongst family and friends. Imagine parties spilling seamlessly out to the adjoining al fresco, where an exquisitely detailed feature fireplace stands ready to make every party an event! The indoor dining room sits central to the arches, giving it a lovely sense of connection to - and separation from - the kitchen and the loungeroom. Every view across the house and out through high, arched windows is sublime.
Also on the ground floor is a very large guest room and a stylish family bathroom. Upstairs there are three large bedrooms and a versatile second living area, or 5th bedroom, depending on your needs. The main bedroom has an ensuite bathroom with beautiful Italian vanities, F.illi Frattini tapware and Satin jet shower. To say there's plenty of storage would be an understatement - there are two large, deep banks of built-in cupboards, easy access to loft storage, and the oversized garage could hold all manner of things.
This home is an unrivalled proposition, and the location is an investment in the future with so many changes planned to enhance its close proximity to South Beach and the South Freo café and restaurant strip.
