AUCTION BROUGHT FORWARD FRIDAY 9TH AUGUST 2024 AT 3PM
An award winning home in a tranquil, leafy & esteemed established enclave.
The original home was envisioned in 1980 by the well known architectural company Trengrove & Blunt. However recent times have seen the property completely transformed. Inspired & designed by the highly respected local architectural designer Barry Connor, decorated by Mooi Design and built by Frost Architectural Builders.
A combined effort has harmonised the homes grandeur with modern living and an accentuation of the intrinsic connection to the established garden setting.
The task was to dissolve the separation of the internal space, infuse a cohesive modern layout and create secluded private courtyards.
Vaulted ceilings and an abundance of glazing help embrace the natural light, while the two main gable forms are dynamic, symmetrical, bold, striking and have been strategically designed as roof overhangs to mitigate over heat in summer.
Some facts;
* The bedrooms are doubles.
* There are two bathrooms (one an ensuite) and three toilets.
* Flooring is a combination of engineered hardwood oak planks and wool carpets.
* The laundry is separate.
* Heating is via the ducted air conditioning or two gas fires.
* 5kwh of solar panels.
* A double garage with insulated sectional auto door.

This is a superior modern dwelling embracing relaxed living in the heart of a vibrant locale known as Merivale.
