HOLDING DEPOSIT TAKEN
Located in one of the best streets in coveted Clifton Gardens, this five-bedroom family home has been transformed into a spectacular residence.
With exceptional attention to detail and with no expense spared, it is a rarity for such a home to enter the rental market. This is a home of sophistication but also a home of practicality.
With the paint still drying, a job offer is sending the owners overseas and here is an opportunity for you to enjoy the fruits of their labour.
Sporting an open plan design with a level flow out to the North-facing lawn, gardens, pool, and entertaining spaces, plus of course beautiful Habour views, this is an ideal home for the Executive family. It offers year-round entertaining at its’ finest. The home is tailor-made for indoor/outdoor entertaining or meeting the daily demands of a busy family. There's a space for everyone and everything.
As you would expect, the hub of the home is the kitchen defined by its’ generous New York Marble kitchen bench, bench tops and Yohen border wall tiles. Exclusive to Arte Domus, this exquisite tile with its gently variegated tones and glazed finish, is a beautifully crafted, architectural ceramic, inspired by the earthen tones of traditional Japanese pottery. You will find that this special tile is a consistent feature across all bathrooms including the laundry. In fact, so many beautiful elements are intertwined throughout the home offering a fluidity and connection that many architects fail to incorporate into their designs.
High end European appliances include a Wolf steam/convection oven and separate Pyrolytic oven, V-Zug induction stove, Miele dishwasher, a double door integrated fridge plus a Zip tap with filtered sparkling, boiling and cold water. Adjacent is the Butlers kitchen with its own butlers sink, along with plenty of timber cabinetry and a second dishwasher.
Flooring on this expansive entry level is fitted with tallowwood timber which is exceptionally durable and prestigious and offers a unique colour and grain structure. And let’s not forget the intricate detail of the New York marble tiles cleverly inserted into the timber flooring to bring a connection between kitchen and dining in this open plan space. The glass fronted and mirror backed cocktail cabinet is a nice touch.
Located also on this floor is a de-marked family space at the front of the home with a copper wood-burning fireplace, built in shelving and cabinetry plus views to the harbour. An additional de-marked family space at the rear with built in timber desks and cabinetry enjoys the peaceful garden and pool outlook. Benefiting from the North sun, this is certainly a beautiful part of the home to relax in. A separate media room on this level allows family members to enjoy their own space when required.
Adding classical beauty to the home are the stunning octagonal windows which feature throughout the property. A symbol of eternal life exuding peace and harmony which can be felt the moment you step inside the home.
The attention to detail is fascinating – the different sized brass coat hooks by the front door and beneath them four circular holes cut from brass to house the umbrellas – a modern day version of the umbrella stand!
Also on this level is the super-sized laundry room – well, what can I say. Whoever is tasked with the family washing will embrace this room with a passion. Modern cabinetry with floor to ceiling cupboards, a bank of deep storage drawers for ready to be washed clothes, plenty of additional cupboards for storage, built-in hanging rail, separate pull-down drying rack, brushed brass tapware with pull out hose and a Butler’s sink. But this is not a stark room, it is carefully finished with a touch of pink from the Norwegian penny round pink floor tiles and Norwegian rose marble benchtops and wall tiles. Such a lovely touch. Complete with built in Miele washing machine and dryer situated at waist height, this room is so special; it is a shout out to the architect. This is taking the word “laundry” to a whole new level.
On the upper level are five generous sized bedrooms, all with built-in wardrobes and original parquetry flooring.
There are three bathrooms on this level. All fitted with frameless glass showers edged with brass, brass ceiling -mounted rain shower roses and hand-held roses, Victoria and Albert wash basins, heated towel rails and marble flooring.
The spacious ensuite heralds a Viola marble plinth -mounted oval -shaped stone bath in which to soak away the day’s stresses whilst enjoying the harbour views. Swivel mounted mirrors allow you to embrace the water views wherever you are in the bathroom and with the heated floors and access to a small private balcony, this is a space for relaxation.
Adjacent is a vanity area with plenty of storage, brass hanging rail, Yohen wall tiles and brass framed mirror.
The super king-sized master bedroom benefits from the serene water views through large iron -framed picture windows, floor to ceiling linen block out drapes, ceiling fan and a walk-through robe area fitted with floor to ceiling cabinetry housing a plethora of drawers, shelving and hanging space.
This spectacular home offers layer upon layer of goodies. It is a statement piece.
The brushed brass tapware, fittings, and accessories from Brodware are statement pieces in themselves- elegant, functional, and eye-catching. But what else would you expect from a premium home.
With a combination of New York marble, Viola Marble, Elba Marble and Norwegian Rose Marble, Italian light fittings, tallowwood and parquetry flooring, this home is a property of exceptional quality.
Handleless cupboards, cabinets, drawers, and wardrobes throughout the home offer a seamless and fluid look and give valuable extra space. In fact, there is so much storage in this home, you will be hard pressed to fill it all, irrespective of the size of your family.
The outdoor space is just as practical. The outdoor kitchen, complete with Weber BBQ, gas wok burner, Blanco integrated sink and dining area protected by a retractable awning is ideal, and in a separate entertaining area, a firepit for those lovely autumn/winter nights.
The gas heated pool is a generous size and surrounded by luscious plantings.
A newly laid lawn is perfect for the kids or pets to play on.
The newly built Cabana matches the architecture of the home with its cleverly positioned octagonal windows. Perfect as a work-from-home office with wi-fi connection, built-in cabinetry and opening French glass and iron doors to the grassed area and pool. Alternatively, it is a superb space to enjoy in the summer months and to entertain family and friends. The full bathroom replicating the style of the bathrooms in the main residence is perfectly positioned for pool users and outdoor entertaining.
A single auto garage with storeroom, spacious wine cellar, extra fridge and additional bathroom occupy the lower level of the home. Off street tandem parking for two cars.
The home is fitted with all the modern conveniences of course. Ducted air-conditioning, gas ducted heating, alarm system and even a Tesla battery in the garage.
Located within walking distance to CBD bus and ferries, Taronga Zoo, Chowder Bay, select schools, Mosman village shops, cafes and Balmoral Beach.
It is seldom that a property of this calibre comes to the rental market and certainly not one that has benefited from a full renovation. For one lucky party it is yours to enjoy. If you are accustomed to the finer things in life, then look no further.
