197 Hensman Road

Residing on a tranquil street in the heart of Shenton Park, 197 Hensman Road is an iconic residence of substance and distinction; a triumph of contemporary design, a showcase of effortless style, understated elegance and modern luxury inspired by mid-century modern principles, meticulously planned by the current owners and crafted to perfection by Residential Attitudes, an affiliate of luxury builders, Oswald Homes. This masterpiece of restrained architecture and magnificent exemplar of mid-century modern style is defined by clean, considered lines, multiple light filled living spaces, simple materials and a true connection to the outdoors. Flawlessly integrated within its landscape, natural elements, colours and textures harmonise the connection between indoors and outdoors, whilst continuity of materials acts as a refined backdrop highlighting openness, function and organic architectural form. Topped by a Colourbond Monument roof, warm timber slats and a classic mid-century modern breeze block wall strike a stunning contrast against the black rendered façade. Ideally oriented to capture natural light and glorious summer breezes, interiors feature beautifully proportioned, perfectly balanced spaces at every turn. The versatile, family focused floorplan places gorgeously sundrenched open plan living, dining and kitchen centrally, with separate zones at either end of the home for parents and children. The front of the home could be an exclusively adult zone with a lovely, private, peaceful sitting room and home office with bespoke cabinetry/desks for two, a gorgeous king size master bedroom, superbly designed and fitted his and hers dressing rooms and luxury en-suite with glorious 'sunlit' shower. Bathed in natural light via walls of glass, spectacular open plan family living and dining abut a sleek, modern, superbly appointed kitchen. High end appliances include an Ilve induction cooktop and oven, making entertaining easy for the home chef. Stacking doors open to a fabulous alfresco under the roofline with polished, honed concrete underfoot. The gorgeous lap pool is heated and delightfully inviting year round. Fabulous front and rear waterwise gardens feature desert/Palm Springs style plants and succulents and have built in concrete and timber seating. The west wing at the rear of the home hosts three lovely queen size bedrooms with built in fitted robes and space for desks, a fantastic kids TV/rumpus room with custom piano recess, stunning family bathroom and powder room. 197 Hensman Road.
