85 Well Street, Brighton, Vic 3186

Inspired by the classic grandeur of French Provincial design, this impressively proportioned and luxuriously appointed 4-bedroom residence is located in one of Brighton’s most coveted leafy boulevards, just minutes to Church Street, prestigious schools, and the beach.

Making a bold style statement with its symmetrical splendour, grand entry portico flanked by architectural columns, and Juliette balconies, the double-storey landmark home is privately set behind a high wall, with iron auto gates and security intercom entry.

The marble travertine entry foyer reveals soaring ceilings and the sumptuously carpeted curved central staircase with an ornate iron balustrade. The formal living and dining spaces are resplendent with newly laid French Oak herringbone parquetry and complemented by a gas coal fireplace with marble surrounds. The open-plan living/dining space also has a marble gas-coal fireplace and opens to a sunny private courtyard with a gas-plumbed built-in barbecue and sink, perfect for alfresco entertaining. Defined by a central island bench, the gourmet kitchen features sleek 2-pac cabinetry and is equipped with Bosch appliances including a gas cooktop, double ovens and a dishwasher. Presenting a flexible family-friendly floorplan, there is a ground-level bedroom with walk-in robe and ensuite, while upstairs is the grand master suite with an enormous, fitted walk-in-robe/dressing room, and lavish marble ensuite with corner spa bath, double shower, and double stone vanity. Also, upstairs is a landing/retreat with balcony access, the main bathroom with a built-in tub and shower, the third bedroom with built-in robes, and the fourth bedroom which could double as a cinema room or home office.

Additional features include a pristine, double remote-operated garage plus secure off-street parking, laundry with external access, upstairs and downstairs powder rooms, low-maintenance gardens, gas ducted heating, security alarm system, and an integrated home intercom/radio system.

In this prized location, it’s a short walk to Church Street boutiques, bars and restaurants and is close to the sands and bathing boxes of Brighton Beach while being central to a choice of elite schools including Haileybury College, St.Leonards College, Brighton Grammar and Firbank Grammar.
