LUXURY ON FOUR ACRES SOPHISTICATED elegance from the moment you enter this stunning architecturally designed Seidler residence defined by professionally landscaped grounds and sheer quality that takes this property to a level of its own. Privately set on over four acres in picturesque Olinda/Mt Dandenong and bathed in sunlight, the grounds offer elevation yet rolling open lawn areas sweeping down to the Olinda Creek bordering the property and home to wallabies, lyre birds and deer. Entering the main residence, the solid chestnut timber floors lead into the imposing main living room and striking high ceilings with double glazed picture windows framing garden views and inviting the light in.
A minimal decor draws the eye outside to the stone paving and glass balustrading, and the infinity pool and casual decking surround. A designer kitchen has sleek black stone bench tops and Blum fitted cabinetry detailing the Gaggenau and Miele appliances. The butler’s pantry conceals the workings and clever floor plan design ensures the hub of the home is central to the east and west wing. Wired for sound throughout and decorated for true movie indulgence, the cinema room will please any member of the family with full screen visual and smart wiring technology, even independent refrigerated cooling for comfort control.
There are three double bedrooms and a sitting room, a stylish guest bathroom with spa, and internal access from the three-car garage. The high ceilings and neutral colour palette combines with sumptuous carpets in the bedrooms of the west wing accentuating the quality fixtures and fittings throughout. A Chemise Philippe open fire/slow combustion with sandstone surround is the centrepiece of the formal lounge ideally placed as a parents retreat in the east wing and which leads to an impressive home office walled in shelving. The main bedroom is simply divine, overlooking star magnolias through walls of glass with a Sarah Jessica Parker wardrobe to
