Modern estate with laid-back resort feel

This Palm Springs-inspired residence offers everything you could want in a modern lifestyle acreage minus the long commute from town

- WORDS JANELLE ESTREICH

ROWS of mature palm trees lining the driveway set a tone of laid-back luxury as you approach this statement residence.

Newly built on a prime acreage parcel, the Palm Springs-inspired estate gives the sense of being in a country resort when, in fact, it’s less than 10 minutes to Palm Beach.

Designed by Lea Design Studio and built by Robertson Homes, the U shape layout allows for private wings off a central social space filled with natural light.

Three bedrooms with ensuites occupy the southern wing while the northern wing has a media room, gym and master retreat with dressing room and a private terrace.

High ceilings add to the sense of space in the centre of the home where the kitchen features engineered stone surfaces, high end appliances and a butler’s pantry.

The living area flows easily onto the covered alfresco terrace where a built-in barbecue kitchen overlooks the pool.

Bordering parklands provide a pleasant outlook from the magnesium pool which can be heated for year-round use.

The home also boasts a long list of mod cons, including keyless entry, integrated Bluetooth speakers, airconditi­oning, electronic blinds, security system, solar panels and three phase power.
