The evocative original dimensions of this classic Spanish Mission residence have been taken to a spectacular new level of refinement and luxury by an extraordinary renovation, forming the ultimate domain for family living and entertaining. The charms of 1929 remain a highlight of family warmth and endearment, with the traditional curvaceous portico introducing a wealth of space within the stunning layout. Beautiful Art Deco features, including delicate ornate ceilings, wide plate ledges/picture rails and leadlight windows, are complemented by dark-stained hardwood floors and exquisite designer style over two levels. Extending from the terrazzo balcony and wide hallway, an elegant sitting room and gracious formal dining room pay homage to its past with custom display cabinets and an open fireplace within the tuck pointed brick arches. A whiskey room/library with a gas fireplace settles the soul before reaching the north-facing contemporary living and dining domain, showcasing stunning pool aspects and a brand-new Bosch-appointed, stone-bench kitchen, complete with an integrated fridge/freezer and ZipTap. The home has an incomparable outdoor precinct that extends via bi-fold doors to the expansive deck, lush lawn, and heated pool, perfect for alfresco entertaining. The double garage at the rear delivers flexibility as a sensational outdoor recreation/pool room or home office, with plenty of parking within the secure and long driveway. A sumptuous main suite on the ground floor showcases the era's elegance with a chic ensuite and designer WIR, supplemented by four additional bedrooms with BIRs upstairs, including a guest suite with WIR and ensuite, a third living zone with a balcony and ornamental domed ceiling and a designer family bathroom.
