There are homes that impress you from the moment you arrive, and then there are homes that make you feel something special. This extraordinary Pippa Mowbray architect-designed residence does both.
Understated, timeless and exceptionally beautiful, this is a home that has been designed for family life on a grand scale. With five oversized bedrooms, four bathrooms, multiple living zones, a home office, a cellar and accommodation for four cars, there is an incredible sense of space throughout. Yet, despite its generous proportions, the home feels wonderfully warm, welcoming and inviting.
Inspired by the beauty of traditional Australian verandahs, the architecture celebrates natural materials, beautiful proportions, soaring ceilings and a seamless connection between indoors and out. There is nothing ostentatious about this home. Every detail has been carefully considered, and the result is a residence that feels effortlessly elegant and completely timeless.
This is a home where family and friends gather. Where birthdays are celebrated, long lunches turn into evenings, children grow up surrounded by friends, and memories are made over generations. A truly fabulous family home in every sense.
The ground floor is anchored by stunning brushed box timber flooring, which brings warmth and character to the expansive living spaces. Beautifully proportioned rooms flow effortlessly from one to another, offering wonderful flexibility for both everyday family living and entertaining on a grand scale.
The formal lounge is a gorgeous retreat, complete with a gas fireplace, while a striking double-sided gas fireplace creates warmth and ambience between the living and dining spaces. Whether you are entertaining a crowd or enjoying a quiet evening at home, there is a space for every occasion.
At the heart of the home is an exceptional kitchen, beautifully reimagined approximately ten years ago by interior architect Anne-Marie Paine. Featuring stunning Carrera marble benchtops, beautiful cabinetry and an extraordinary collection of premium V-ZUG appliances, this is a kitchen designed for those who genuinely love to cook and entertain. Three V-ZUG ovens, including a steam combi oven, an induction cooktop with wok burner, dishwasher, built-in coffee machine, plate warmer, Zip tap and Liebherr refrigeration make this a truly fabulous working kitchen.
The accommodation is equally impressive. Five/six wonderfully oversized bedrooms provide incredible space for families of all ages, complemented by four beautifully appointed bathrooms featuring French limestone. The multiple living zones allow everyone to find their own space, while the dedicated home office is ideal for those working from home.
And then there is the magnificent north-facing backyard.
This is where the home truly comes into its own. Bathed in beautiful northern light, the outdoor spaces have been designed to be enjoyed throughout the seasons. Gorgeous decking, expansive verandahs, a solar-heated swimming pool and multiple outdoor entertaining areas create an incredible setting for family gatherings and celebrations. Two outdoor fireplaces with overhead fans make entertaining an absolute pleasure. There is a wonderful sense of connection between the home and garden, allowing family and friends to move effortlessly between the spaces.
The practical details are just as impressive. There is secure garaging for two cars with excellent storage, additional parking for two vehicles accessed from the rear laneway, a cellar, surround sound throughout, ducted air conditioning, ceiling fans in all bedrooms, reticulated gardens serviced by a shared bore and an abundance of storage throughout.
Everywhere you look, there is evidence of thoughtful design, quality craftsmanship and a home that has been loved and enjoyed.
What I particularly love about this residence is that it doesn't try too hard. The architecture speaks for itself. The materials are beautiful, the spaces are generous, and the feeling throughout is one of relaxed, understated luxury.
This is not simply a beautiful house. It is a home that has hosted countless celebrations, welcomed generations of family and friends and provided the backdrop to a lifetime of memories.
An exceptional architectural residence, a truly wonderful family home and an incredibly special opportunity on one of Dalkeith's most beautiful streets.
