After 42 years, this home has finally outgrown its owners - and that creates an extraordinary opening for buyers who require genuine scale. If you're planning to bring generations together, support ageing parents, give teens independence, or looking for home and income, this is the kind of property that solves problems ordinary homes can't. Big households, blended families, serious entertainers - hesitation here is how you miss out.
Set on a rare flat 783sqm site with long views from the Alps to the sea, the layout delivers separation and connection in all the right places. Five bedrooms and four bathrooms give every family member their own space, while multiple living areas make day-to-day life feel easy, not crowded. A brand-new family bathroom supports busy mornings, and the extra rooms provide flexible zones for work, guests, hobbies or teenagers who want privacy.
The kitchen anchors the home with marble finishes and a full butler's pantry, flowing into generous dining and living spaces and a classic bar for effortless hosting. Year-round lifestyle continues with the indoor saltwater pool and spa, plus a sunny lounge/sunroom and a flat lawn perfect for children's play - a rarity on the hill.
With strong fundamentals - solar panels, multiple heat sources, updated exterior systems, and full EQC sign-off - the heavy lifting is done, with room left to personalise.
Triple-car garaging, extra parking, and a reserve across the road round out a compelling package, all just moments from Mt Pleasant School.
The owners are highly motivated and absolutely ready to meet the market. If you need space, flexibility and a home that supports a bigger way of living, act now - the scale and opportunity on offer here won't come back around.
