Immaculate architect-designed home
Architect-designed by renowned Kevin Snell to make the most of cooling coastal breezes, abundant natural light and of course, those spectacular sea views, this immaculate home creates an expansive retreat where privacy, connection, versatility and convenience are all effortlessly attended to. Revealing premium finishes throughout a thoughtful, spacious layout, the home is one entertainers will adore. Its versatile indoor-outdoor spaces are as perfect for relaxation and quiet connection, as they are for everyday entertaining and elaborate events. With every polished finish and within each inviting space, you find something more to love. If you're not cooking up a storm in the designer kitchen, perhaps you'll be relaxing poolside and taking in those views. As a much-loved home, it is a dream for the modern family, providing plenty of opportunity for everyone to find their space and come together.Given the impressive size of the block, you will surely not be disappointed by the low maintenance bush garden out the back, where due to its position close to Glenrock Reserve, provides the ideal spot to look out for birdlife, bluetongue lizards and the occasional echidna. But while you may enjoy being framed by these peaceful surrounds and the sweet sound of birdsong, you are still convenient to every essential. The perfect family home facing Gibbs Brothers Park, be able to enjoy local rugby games, or watch your children play from the comfort of your home. By car, you're moments to Newcastle CBD and Westfield Kotara, while on foot, it's an easy stroll down to the ocean baths and beach. If you prefer bikes, Glenrock Mountain Bike Trails or Fernleigh Track provide endless opportunities for weekend adventures. -Designed by architect Kevin Snell in 1982 and ahead of its time in both design and style, this award-winning home-featured in Home Beautiful (1986)-was extensively renovated by Snell in 2013 and has been meticulously maintained by the same family since its construction-Vast 1,080sqm. bush block positioned on the fringe of Glenrock Reserve-Positioned to make the most of sweeping sea views, coastal breezes, and natural light -Breathtaking 180-degrees views over the ocean and city, as far as Port Stephens-Interior spaces, pool and decks with ocean view, garden view at the rear -Exceptional for entertaining, this home will rise to any occasion-Expansive living areas, finished with Blackbutt flooring, a Bose sound system and Samsung TV-Showpiece kitchen boasts Corian benchtops, semi-gloss 2PAC cabinetry; Vintec built-in wine fridge, 15 Hafele drawers, an integrated garbage system; two Liehberr integrated fridges, Miele built-in steam oven, pyrolytic oven, induction cooktop, exhaust fan and dishwasher-Saltwater pool with poolside lounging area, low-maintenance composite front decks, Meranti hardwood back decks, stainless steel and powder-coated galvanised steel deck railings -Upper level is reserved for three bedrooms and an office, including a vast master -Beautifully appointed ensuite, main bathroom and powder room featuring black mosaic tiles-Harwell elevator services each level, registered as a handicapped lift (capacity 350kg + wheelchair)-Solar system inc. 3.69kW PV system (1 x SolarEdge 3kW Genesis inverter, 9 Solar PV SunCell 410W + 9 Optimisers Solar Edge 440W) installed 27 February 2024, registered with "mySolarEdge" app, plus Solarhart hot water system-Double garage and designated parking space, turning bay and long driveway-Mere two-minute drive/ ten-minute walk to Holy Family Primary School-Moments from Merewether ocean baths, beach and start of Yuelarbah Track and Newcastle CBD
