Inspection by Appointment Only A sanctuary of remarkable scale and serenity, this custom-crafted residence delivers an exceptional family lifestyle in the heart of Brighton. Nestled within the prestigious St James Park precinct, it reveals a world of light, space and a seamless connection to its private setting. Expansive dual-level living and multiple zones deliver proportions rarely found in this level, setting it apart from comparable homes. Recently refreshed interiors add immediate appeal, offering comfort from day one with scope to personalise over time. Designed for family living, four generous bedrooms plus a substantial study are complemented by beautifully defined entertaining domains and a north-westerly rear garden that invites relaxed indoor-outdoor living. A soaring atrium introduces a vast, open-plan layout, where a spacious formal lounge enjoys a leafy outlook across the largely low-maintenance rose garden. A grand dining room sets the scene for refined occasions, while the fully appointed Miele kitchen caters to everyday ease. Across the rear, an elegant curved bay window frames a light-filled sitting area, alongside the granite kitchen and relaxed family zone, warmed by a gas log fire and bathed in afternoon sun. Bi-fold doors extend living outdoors to a sun-filled backyard, where paved areas, established palms and a chef's garden create a wonderful family environment. Exceptionally private with no overlooking, it's a haven for al fresco entertaining and children's play, while a long auto-gated driveway provides parking for four-cars and doubles as the perfect space for a game of cricket. A ground floor home office or fifth bedroom offers flexibility, while upstairs accommodation is thoughtfully zoned for a growing family. A huge rumpus room will delight children of all ages, accompanied by three oversized bedrooms (mirrored built-in robes) and a deluxe family bathroom. Parents are afforded a generous retreat, complete with a glass-framed sitting area, fitted walk-in robe and a dual-vanity ensuite featuring a tree-top soaking bath. Additional highlights include a guest powder room, large laundry with upstairs chute, extensive storage, and ducted heating, cooling and vacuuming. A one-owner residence of enduring quality, it promises a lifetime of family memories. This home represents an increasingly rare offering of scale, privacy and family flexibility in this tightly held precinct, ideally positioned moments from Bay Street shops, cafes and dining, leading schools including Brighton Grammar and Firbank Grammar, public transport and the bay.
