Architecturally renovated by multi-award winners Atkinson Pontifex to showcase its magnificent mid-century modernist origins while celebrating the utmost in contemporary living and entertaining amidst indulgently appointed spaces, this six-bedroom luxury family home, with resort-style lap pool and spa, is superbly positioned in a leafy low-traffic locale, moments to Church Street, Middle Brighton Station, elite schools and the bathing boxes of Brighton beach.

Lavishly proportioned and bathed in natural light, the home’s curated high-end fit-out is exemplified in the main living and entertaining areas which are wrapped in floor-to-ceiling glass, floored with engineered oak and polished concrete, and aesthetically enhanced with hand-stacked stone fireplace surrounds. Defined by an oversized stone island bench, the sleek gourmet kitchen, equipped with a freestanding Smeg cooker and an integrated Miele fridge/freezer, is complemented by a walk-in preparation pantry with a wine fridge, and a butler’s/laundry with external access door. Privately cocooned in verdant greenery, the wraparound alfresco offerings incorporate the fully tiled heated swimming pool and spa, that extends to a 22-metre lap pool with lights and fountains, an outdoor shower, powder room, and paved patio, lush lawn and landscaped gardens.

Also on the ground floor is a cinema room/home office, with screen and projector, a professionally fitted-out wine cellar, a guest bathroom, comms room and access to the double-garage with workshop/gym space. Upstairs the generous proportions and luxury fit-out continues in a large living room/retreat, and a further five bedrooms and two bathrooms. The rear two upper-level bedrooms could easily be adapted to become a second master suite, taking advantage of city skyline views.
