Exclusively situated in a premier Dorrington Estate address, this elegant c1923 solid brick residence has been masterfully transformed by architects Herbert & Howes to create a spectacular family domain where the multitude of living spaces and glorious garden and pool surrounds become the backdrop to a lifetime of family memories.

Behind the sweeping arched verandah, the generous entrance hall featuring oak floors and ornate ceilings introduces a gracious sitting room with open fire and bay window, a spacious home office or guest bedroom and the palatial living room. Wrapped in north and east facing floor to ceiling stacking glass sliders, the breathtaking open plan dining room is complemented by a sophisticated entertainer’s kitchen appointed with a full suite of Gaggenau appliances including steam oven and fridge/freezer, waterfall granite benches and a full equipped butler’s pantry. The sliders open completely to a north-facing al fresco dining terrace with BBQ beneath the canopy of a magnificent Pin Oak tree and overlooking the picturesque gas heated pool and spa. On the basement level with polished concrete floors underfoot, a sensational, generously proportioned recreation/billiards room (to suit a full size table) with kitchenette, 400 bottle temperature-controlled wine cellar and a bathroom opens to the private easy-care garden.

The stunning main bedroom with a deluxe walk-in robe and designer ensuite is peacefully positioned on the ground level while the children’s zone upstairs comprises a second bedroom with ensuite and walk in robe, two additional double bedrooms with robes, a stylish central bathroom with bath and a retreat complete with a unique laundry chute.
