Sold7 Foote Street, Brighton
Lavish Family Home in Sought-After Pocket
Befitting its esteemed locale and architectural splendour, an aesthetically driven interior transformation, incorporating bespoke appointments and impeccable attention-to-detail, has transcended the living and entertaining experience of this luxurious 5-bedroom Brighton family residence with pool, spa, and self-contained studio.
Lighting, both natural and curated, is the hero here. Northern and westerly facing living spaces are abundantly glazed and open out to alfresco zones, while a smart Dynalite system complemented by stunning Articolo pendants and sconces beautifully illuminates the home's grand dimensions.
The ground level entry opens to reveal a sculpturally curved staircase and a direct eyeline to the resort-style pool, spa, and alfresco area. European oak flooring sweeps through the formal and informal living and dining spaces, while sheer, Belgian linen softens the expanses of glass. Defined with a large marble island and an impressive AGA cooker, the Signorino Stone kitchen features soft-close cabinetry and sleek joinery, integrated Liebherr fridge/freezer and Miele dishwasher. The adjoining butler's kitchen is equally well-appointed and sensor lighting adds to the effortless liveability. A home office (or guest room), study nook and powder room complete the ground floor layout.
Upstairs, imported Argentinian pure wool carpeting is sumptuous underfoot, and silvery handcrafted grass-cloth wallpaper in the light-filled master suite adds a sublime, five-star feel, which is further complemented by a Calacatta marble ensuite with double shower and vanities, and a custom fitted-walk in robe. There are four additional bedrooms (or three and a retreat) all with built-in robes, custom joinery, and lovely, leafy outlooks, plus a luxe travertine-tiled main bathroom, separate powder room and laundry.
The rear covered alfresco space features an outdoor kitchen, also with marble benchtops, and includes a drinks fridge, icemaker, and gas-plumbed barbecue. Set in blue-stone surrounds, a glamorous custom-built day bed, matches the curves of tiled gas and solar heated swimming pool and spa. The well-appointed self-contained studio, with kitchen and bathroom, is ideal for use a guest or teenager accommodation, pool house, or gym.
Includes central heating and cooling, a wood fireplace, Brodware tapware and C-Bus automation including Sonos surround sound. Surrounded by lush, landscaped gardens, the home is privately set behind a high wall with video intercom entry, and two car spaces behind an auto sliding gate. Positioned in a coveted Brighton neighbourhood, it's a short stroll to the Golden Mile foreshore, the Bay Trail and Elsternwick Park, and in walking distance to prestige schools, Bay Street and Martin Street shops and stations.
