Sophisticated lifestyle boasts poolside entertainment
True elegance never needs any explanation. It is self-evident – never overdone, always tasteful and styled with an appreciation of what elegance means.
Taking the classic lines of a character home in popular Lynmore, this home makes an impressive statement from the outset. Due in part to the large corner site it commands, the home’s elevated position allows it to gaze down over the suburb to glimpses of the lake and Mokoia Island beyond.
It’s a charming outlook – particularly while enjoying the comforts of the poolside entertainment area. The heated saltwater pool is an invitation day or night – either basking in the sun during the day, or toasting twinkling city lights at night. Evening relaxation goes a step further with a gas-fire lounge setting and spa pool in one corner.
Every area of this home’s landscape offers somewhere to entertain, exercise, relax, garden and potter in the greenhouse.
That is merely an entrée to what awaits inside, however. A sympathetic renovation throughout has retained the timeless elegance of the home’s original character, while elevating it to prestige status.
No expense was spared in this home’s transformation. It flows into every room – each room personalised for their purpose, with distinctive tone and cleverly blending the history of traditional elements in a modern waythatmakes them still relevant.
This is particularly noticeable in the powder room. Next door, an office takes care of the paperwork.
A new gourmet kitchen, with its bespoke Falcon Nexus gas stove and coffee corner is a cook’s dream. Sitting neatly between casual family living and formal entertainment, it caters easily to both zones – sometimes at the same time; if kids need to be fed early and watch TV in the family hub. Adults can have their time later in the main reception. Each area cleverly transcends eras to suit their purpose. A modern approach for family life sits well in the day area, while the main reception adopts a more sophisticated manner with fireside comfort. Its connection with the outdoor lounge is seamless – making entertainment flow from one area to the other.
Upstairs there are four spacious bedrooms; where eyes draw immediately to the master suite. Extraordinary space and luxury styling compares with a penthouse hotel suite here. A beautiful bedroom – with a personal lounge to relax in peace – and a bathroom to match. Styled with an oval bath, twin shower and his and hers vanity; five-star luxury is an understatement. The family bathroom boasts similar luxury – with a spa bath for added indulgence and fine taste enhancing its mood.
Every element of this home’s décor was carefully considered and executed brilliantly. Lucky the family who gets to enjoy it all.
