Sunny architectural sanctuary

A beautifully curated four bedroom home where contemporary design meets thoughtful comfort just steps from Coxs Bay Reserve, this is a dream for urban families.

Architecturally designed by dn2 registered architects from its humble 1940s bungalow origins, reimagined, rebuilt and extended to create a north-west facing oasis with room for everyone. Clad in horizontal and vertical cedar and sitting on a 577sqm site, the natural timbers are complemented by a considered use of colour throughout the interiors, creating a relaxed yet sophisticated vibe.

The master bedroom is understated perfection, a calm relaxing space, with concealed spacious walk-in wardrobe and luxurious ensuite. Three light and inviting double bedrooms each boast exquisite attention to detail with built-in wall-to-wall wardrobes with drawers and desks, making them the perfect young people's retreats. Luxury is not reserved for the adults in this generous home, with the family bathroom's gorgeous egg shaped bath an inviting way to end the day.

A separate and spacious media room makes for a great relaxing room for adults and children alike. At the rear of the home is the light-filled open plan living, dining and cleverly crafted, well-appointed, high-end kitchen. Floor to ceiling doors lead to the landscaped, sun-drenched sanctuary beyond - dine on the extensive covered decking while the kids swim in the heated pool, kick a ball on the lawn or play in the sandpit - a wonderland for the kids while the adults entertain.

Located in the very quiet and tightly held neighbourhood of Coxs Bay, the home is a short stroll from the park, tennis courts, playground and close to sought after Westmere School, Bayfield Primary, Ponsonby Intermediate and Western Springs College, as well as nearby West Lynn, Jervois Rd, Ponsonby and the CBD, this is how to live well in the city.
