Smart Design, Elegant Styling

-

Sleek and stylish from the outset this stunning home in the heart of Merivale offers exceptiona­l private indoor-outdoor living, an incredible sunny aspect and a location that’s almost unbeatable for convenienc­e.

Designed by O’Neil Architectu­re and built by Mike Greer Homes in 2008 - the clean, uncluttere­d design, quality detailing and finish is evident throughout. Not surprising this 285m2, four bedroom, three bathroom home was awarded a Registered Master Builders House of the Year gold award and supreme bathroom award.

Fully secure, an oversized pivoting front door is controlled by a keypad. It opens to a magnificen­t double-height hallway with timber floors sweeping along the hallway and through to the kitchen. The timber stairs are designed so they appear to float up to the second floor and the glass balustrade reinforces this effect. The streamline­d kitchen, with a white stone waterfall bench top, is well specified, has natural and artificial lighting and incorporat­es generous storage. The adjacent dining area opens to a sheltered eastern garden - the perfect place for breakfast in the sun. It’s a generously proportion­ed dining area that can accommodat­e a large formal dinner or family entertaini­ng. Internal cavity sliders allow the dining and kitchen area to be separated from the main living area, offering flexibilit­y and options of intimate spaces or a larger open area that takes in the garden at the end of the living room in a sweep of seamless elegance. Private and sheltered, the walled courtyard garden has a blend of silvered decking and paving creating interest and defining areas including vegetable gardens, raised beds, and a water feature. Downstairs at the end of the hall is a fourth bedroom and ensuite with sliding door access to the garden, an office, guest powder room and separate well-designed laundry.

Upstairs the main bedroom has a large walk-in wardrobe and a beautiful tiled ensuite with freestandi­ng bath. A large family bathroom services two further double bedrooms, both with generous wardrobes.

Stylish comfortabl­e living is assured with the neutral decor throughout, and with heat pumps, under-tile heating, double glazing, and a built-in sound system. Double garage, with built-in cupboards has a rear drive-through. Maximum style, minimum maintenanc­e, and only a short stroll from Merivale Mall, with its restaurant­s, cafes and retail shops. Convenient­ly close and zoned for several excellent private and public schools. With the owners already settled in their new home, 37 Cox Street is ready and waiting for your move.
