Superb Architect Designed Contemporary Family Home
A beautiful lush garden forms a tranquil back-drop for this superbly designed contemporary home, originally designed by and for the renowned Architect, Frank Dixon, who is known for designing the pole house in Fairhaven - the spectacular Ocean Road home.

Introduced by a distinctive rendered façade the stylish home features a foyer with vaulted ceilings, large strategically positioned windows, generous living room with floor-to-ceiling sliding doors to a northern covered terrace; a fully tiled family bathroom, laundry and two bedrooms both with built-in robes and opening to the garden. The upper level features the family living and dining area incorporating a sleek kitchen with Caesarstone benchtops equipped with prestige Ilve and Fisher & Paykel appliances plus a glass wall opening to a deck with views and an awning gently shaded by a magnificent neighbouring Eucalyptus tree - delivering options for entertaining on either level. Also, a second bathroom, study and main bedroom with retreat area and WIR. The rear garden includes an external multi-function room suitable for either games, gymnasium or home office. Other features of the home include alarm, R/C air conditioners (on both levels), Coonara fireplace (informal living), ample internal storage, side and rear water features, double garage, workshop area and storage with laundry access.
