Extraordinary Architect- Designed Residence in Prestige Location
Designed by a local architect for himself and his family, this home of distinction is stylish, sustainably principled and low maintenance. No detail or convenience has been missed.
The elevated house commands sweeping country views to the east and is cleverly screened from neighbours and passersby, established trees and flowering shrubs. A 10 minute walk from Bangalow village, it is within easy reach of the local school, restaurants and shops. This is Bangalow living at its best.
Inside, a timber stairwell leads up to an expansive open plan living area with high raked ceilings, clerestory windows and banks of sliding doors all of which which ensure sunshine , light and cross ventilation. Reclaimed hardwood floors feature throughout the living space. In the bathrooms beautiful spotted gum cabinetry complemented by unique glass and tiles add a stylish personal touch. Equally important, although not immediately apparent, are the solid core internal doors and good insulation, which minimise room -to- room noise.
The master suite has sliding doors on either side opening onto the front and rear decks. The adjoining ensuite bathroom has an appealing sunken fully tiled area, which overlooks the tranquil fishpond. There are two other bedrooms on the upper level, one currently used as a study with elegant in-built timber desk and cabinets. Both rooms have direct access to the private deck and garden.
To the front and rear of the house the landscaped gardens feature native trees which attract bountiful birdlife and afford a great sense of privacy.
Downstairs, a private studio incorporates a kitchenette, bathroom, storage and built-in cabinetry. The studio has a separate entry and courtyard and is ideal for a live-in family member, guests or extra income.
Under the house there is a discreet storage space, a full garage with remote access, a workshop and a large carport. Two large 9,000 litre water tanks enable the house to run on either town or tank water. A 2kw solar array has been installed.
Spacious entertaining decks addressing magnificent views offer panorama, protection and privacy upstairs whilst being well sheltered from weather and sun.
