A Contemporary Icon
In a high-profile central Merivale location, this iconic property commands attention. Designed by renowned DDArchitects, an interplay of angular black forms provides a sculptural context for contemporary living, finished to the highest standards to ensure an exemplary lifestyle. Behind masonry walls, established hedging and an electric gate, the utmost privacy and security is assured. Courtyard living wraps around the home for exceptionally easy maintenance and effortless flow between indoor and outdoor spaces – an unparalleled setting for entertaining, whatever the season. Step inside, and the matt black exterior evolves into monochromatic décor and high-gloss finishes – a sophisticated palette setting the tone for luxurious living. Magnificent, open-plan living flows along the ground floor, huge floor-to-ceiling bi-fold and stacking doors dissolving the divide between indoors and out. Black custom cabinetry in the casual living is reflected in the bespoke kitchen, where an overhead skylight fills the space with natural light. Gaggenau appliances and welcome touches, such as a plumbed Samsung fridge-freezer, ensure the ultimate functionality, while a waterfall peninsula counter and undercabinet LED strip lighting add inimitable style – the perfect backdrop for casual gatherings. A separate formal lounge extends the options for relaxing and entertaining. Here, a ducted gas fire augments the under-floor and ducted heating options, ensuring it is as comfortable and inviting in winter as it is during summer, when the stacking sliders are pushed back to connect the outdoors. A Bose sound system is fitted throughout the living spaces. Upstairs and facing north, the stunning master suite is a sumptuous retreat, boasting a dressing room and beautiful resort-style tiled en suite with twin vanities. There are three more double bedrooms, one currently configured as an office with walk-in storage (or walk-in-robe). A tiled main bathroom serves family and guests. Positioned to enjoy exceptional sun and natural light, this executive home is as liveable as it is impressive. The 455 sqm grounds are tailor-made for outdoor living, with generous paved areas framed by easycare established plantings. There is a double internal-access garage, of course, while impressive security features are a plus for those who travel frequently. The luxurious lifestyle offered by this property is enhanced for an exceptional location. Beyond the front gates, stroll just minutes to an array of top eateries and boutique shopping at Merivale Village. Only slightly further are the leafy oasis of Hagley Park and the vibrant CBD. A top level of schooling is assured by zoning for Elmwood School, Heaton Intermediate, Boys’ High and Girls’ High, as well as proximity to numerous private schools. This stunning home offers a lifestyle of unparalleled luxury in one of the city’s most desirable neighbourhoods. Quite simply, life doesn’t get any better than this.
