Simply The Best Rising prominently from its perched position atop an elevated allotment paints a picture of lavish living in one of Warrandyte's most prestigious settings. Venture inside and discover an interior that truly delivers five-star living at its very finest.From the 100-year-old Oregon timber that graces parts of the home to the sublime 16-metre indoor swimming pool, this luxurious 116-square (Approx) family home successfully blends the charm and beauty of yesteryear with the very best modern living has to offer. A zen-inspired water feature that trickles beneath the grand Jarrah staircase also arouses the senses and instills serenity and peacefulness throughout.Formal lounge and dining are dressed in a timeless warmth with their period-inspired personas, both styled with Westminster carpets underfoot, quality drapes and picturesque views. Close the 100-year-old Oregon timber doors of the formal lounge to truly enjoy an escape from the daily grind in front of the open fireplace, dressed with the character of a mantle for you to add family photos and decorative pieces. Formal dining, meanwhile, is equally breathtaking in its timeless beauty and offers direct access to an entertaining terrace surrounded by magnificent scenic views.Those same views can be enjoyed from the comfort of the spectacular open-plan living, defined by its architectural beauty, diverse angles and dimensions, a brilliant splash of vibrant colours and integration with two outdoor settings. A commercial-grade gourmet kitchen provides the perfect complement to this expansive communal area and is guaranteed to excite those who love to cook. And even if you don't, you'll fall in love with the huge 1200mm Viking stainless steel cooker surrounded with stainless steel benchtops and splashback. Qasair stainless steel rangehood adds to the appeal, so too does the commanding island bench and scullery (fitted with stainless steel benchtops and Fisher & Paykel dishwashing drawers) that's perfect for concealed meal preparations while entertaining.The five-star quality of the home extends to the glorious indoor pool set-up (fitted with a dehumidifier), where a 16-metre chlorinated pool with spa offers the perfect morning workout. Combine it with the three sets of bi-fold doors that open onto a large open-air entertaining area and sheltered alfresco and it's indoor-outdoor entertaining unlike anything you've ever seen! Adjoining bathroom and toilet facilities means swimmers can also hop straight out of the pool and into the shower without leaving a water trail throughout the home.Bedrooms of very generous proportions (Master with parents' retreat, private balcony, walk-in robes and ensuite) are zoned upstairs for a premium level of privacy and comfort. Guests are also catered for courtesy of a ground-level guestroom with walk-in robes and private ensuite.Those that know a good drop will appreciate the basement cellar, while ducted vacuum, two ducted heating and evaporative cooling units plus two industrial hot water units (one gas and one electric) adds further appeal.This luxurious piece of paradise is within walking distance of Warrandyte High School, bus transport and parkland and a short distance away from The Pines Shopping Centre.Photo ID Required
