Perched on one of Darlington's most coveted streets with gorgeous homes on one side and bush behind, this grand, multi-level marvel stands as a testament to timeless elegance and connected family living. First built in 1975 and lovingly maintained and upgraded since, this three-level layout with breathtaking views and expansive indoor and outdoor living spaces delivers a versatile and ever-evolving hub for a growing, busy family. If you love the iconic vibe of Hills homes, you'll fall instantly in love here with the stone wall features and stained glass windows. The spacious living areas are a delightful marriage of elegance and functionality, where the rustic heritage of the home has been enhanced with modern comforts. The enormous country-style kitchen (complete with Butler's pantry), overlooks the open-plan living and dining area via what is possibly the Hills' most epic - and en pointe - breakfast bar. Through multiple windows and gorgeous timber doors, one of the many spectacular views from this property call, always reminding you to take a moment and enjoy the beauty of where you live.
In a home this sprawling, you'd expect a couple of very special areas, and the top floor aims to impress. This mezzanine level has its own bedroom and balcony, creating a private retreat within the retreat boasting priceless views. The ground floor is equally impressive with a stunning main bedroom with indulgent dressing room, fabulous study area, and a formal lounge to rival the most swanky event space for glittering soirees. Below, the undercroft offers a retreat area with kitchenette off yet another bedroom, so your almost independent, older children can really make the space their own. You'll want to pop down to visit often though, thanks to the wine cellar and luxurious corner bath. Every inch of this whopping 384sqm of living space has been thoughtfully considered and balance plush comfort with practicality and a touch of grandeur.
