Timeless Elegance
Nestled in the coveted enclave of Sandy Bay, this stunning family abode seamlessly blends contemporary design with breathtaking water vistas, a testament to the visionary work of Esmund Dorney. With only two previous owners since the 1950s, this architecturally designed home exudes comfort, convenience, and enduring charm.
Set upon a generous allotment spanning 1085sqm, the property boasts easy-care gardens adorned with mature olive trees lining the front boundary, while established magnolias and Japanese Maples frame the entrance. An elevated north-facing orientation ensures abundant winter sunshine floods the interiors, complemented by over-wide eaves providing respite from the summer heat. Dual access from Churchill Avenue and Waimea Avenue adds further allure to this desirable property.
Inside, modern renovations have optimized the floorplan to craft a versatile family sanctuary. Upon entry, guests are welcomed into a sunken lounge adorned with floor-to-ceiling windows offering mesmerizing views of the River Derwent. French doors lead to a sweeping elevated terrace, creating an idyllic entertaining space overlooking lush surroundings and the river beyond. The dining area seamlessly transitions into a well-appointed kitchen boasting top-tier appliances and a walk-in pantry, while the family room and entertainment center at the rear ensure ample space for leisure.
Completing the main level are laundry facilities and a powder room, while the upper floor hosts a private master suite with an ensuite bathroom featuring a double vanity and bathtub, as well as a spacious walk-in robe. This retreat promises tranquil mornings greeted by sunrise over the Derwent. Two additional ensuite bedrooms and a fourth bedroom or study complete the upper level, each finished to the highest standard with quality fixtures and finishes.
Year-round comfort is ensured with a ducted heating and cooling system, supplemented by floor heating in the bathrooms. Secure off-street parking is provided by a double garage with storage space.
