Description: A matter of footsteps from the glorious Golden Mile foreshore, this family rarity with its own pool, tennis court, and vast 1199sqm holding* is a sanctuary of style, substance, scale, and sophistication. Quiet and secluded courtesy of exceptional build quality, extensive double glazing, and a distant setback behind a lush front garden, a refined, relaxing interior sprawls over two impressive levels, pairing effortless family function with entertainment prowess. With a gas fire making for cosy nights in a tranquil lounge, a central dining area flanks an oversized sitting room serving equally well as an office or downstairs bedroom, while at the rear of the home, family and meals zones glance across a sun-soaked backyard's stunning expanse. An electric glass door merges inside and out, with an open-air hospitality space neighbouring a solar-heated, saltwater pool and full-size tennis court to lift appeal beyond compare. Stone benches line a kitchen that's sure to excite the passionate cook, with a waterfall island centre-stage among profuse soft-close cabinetry, a butler's pantry, integrated Miele dishwasher, and Siemens cooking appliances in a gas stove and twin ovens. Taking in delightful sights of Brighton's signature foliage, four substantial, second-storey bedrooms all enjoy ensuite access, with a walk-around robe and ensuite to a magnificent main bedroom, private bathroom to a sumptuous guest room, and shared ensuite to generous third and fourth bedrooms. Placed among Melbourne's pre-eminent beach enclave and promising all the space a family could ever need, other highlights include tennis-court floodlighting, C-Bus home automation, Grey Ironbark floors, comprehensive heating/cooling, irrigation, a downstairs bathroom, upstairs storeroom, video intercom, laundry, double garage, and two extra driveway spaces. In a prized pocket by Kamesburgh Gardens, Gardenvale Station, and the cafés, bars, restaurants, and shopping options of Martin and Bay Streets, it's no more than moments to dog and swimming beaches, the Baths and Yacht Club, Sandbelt golf courses, Elsternwick Park, iconic Church Street, and some of the state's finest schools in Brighton and Firbank Grammar, Star of the Sea, St Leonard's, and Haileybury Colleges, and zoned Elwood College.
