Peter Byfield Elegance
In a prime Inner South location, tucked under the majestic Chinese Elms, this stunning contemporary town residence, designed by Peter Byfield, combines architectural elegance with effortless comfort and an enviable garden setting.
Surrounded by beautifully established wrap-around gardens, the property features a manageable lawn area, mature maples, dogwood, gardenias, and roses, along with a bed of cottage flowering plants that provide year-round colour. The gardens are fully fenced for privacy and security, with an automatic awning on the northern side creating a perfect outdoor retreat for entertaining or quiet relaxation.
Inside, expansive open-plan living areas flow seamlessly to a private courtyard with built-in BBQ, offering the ideal balance of sophistication and indoor-outdoor lifestyle. The luxe kitchen is a true showpiece, featuring Corian stone benchtops, integrated double fridge/freezers, large 900mm gas cooker with double ovens and stainless dual draw dishwasher. A walk-in pantry neatly houses all the bulky appliances, while a well-designed and cleverly concealed laundry sits discreetly to the side of the kitchen – combining practicality with seamless style.
Throughout the home, beautiful lighting enhances the atmosphere, complementing the ceramic tiled floors and full-height glass wall in the living area, complete with automatic curtains. An inbuilt entertainment unit and custom picture-hanging rail system create a refined gallery feel.
Upstairs, the master suite serves as a peaceful retreat, with balconies off all rooms, a walk-in robe plus an additional wall of robes, and serene garden outlooks. The bathrooms are fresh and beautifully appointed with a neutral colour palette and luxurious large showers. A powder room is conveniently positioned near the front entrance for guests.
Additional highlights include an oversized double garage beneath the home, automated features for comfort and convenience, and lush, low-maintenance landscaping surrounding the residence.
