28 Gray Street, Brighton, Vic 3186

Rising above its exclusive Brighton Beach surrounds from one of its most keenly sought-after streets, this timelessly renovated period home unites all the romance of its 1929 heritage with a relaxed poolside entertainers’ lifestyle.

Offering 5 bedrooms and a seamless all-seasons alfresco flow on a brilliant north-facing corner of 583 square metres (approx.), this is a home with a big and bright future in a dress-circle position near Dendy Street beach and Church Street cafes.
Traditional proportions and period character are infused with a bold contemporary style, as a vast kitchen and meals area is detailed with subway tiling, timber working benches, stainless steel appliances and an effortless connection to a huge undercover deck that is the home’s heart. Overlooking a heated in-ground swimming pool and spa, the deck has been appointed with café-style blinds, ceiling fans, heating and an outdoor kitchen to make entertaining a dream - regardless of Melbourne’s weather conditions.

Also extending out to the deck, a large family living room is warmed by a roaring fireplace, while separate lounge and dining rooms are more traditional spaces – the lounge also warmed by another fireplace and ducted heating.

Intelligent zoning sees all the bedrooms set upstairs, generously sized under soaring ceilings with built-in robes, windows in all directions, sweeping views and spectacular natural light, all sharing easy access to an open study and family bathroom. Of the bedrooms, the primary suite is a particular indulgence with walk-through robes, a contemporary ensuite and its own terrace where the afternoon sun and views are stunning.

An inspired attic conversion has created a space where a series of north- and west-facing balcony-style windows frame a panorama that spans the waters of Port Phillip Bay to the towers of the CBD with a backdrop that also extends from the You Yangs to Mount Dandenong, ensuring this is the perfect vantage point for New Years’ fireworks.
Practicality, too, has been a key consideration with a terrific mudroom that is the ideal place to dump school bags, sloppy sports clothes and wet shoes right next to the front door, plus a completely free standing studio in the garden and a double lock-up garage, while further highlights include a laundry and separate powder room to service the alfresco and pool areas, ducted heating and split system air conditioning.
Zoned for Brighton Beach Primary School and pivotal to a selection of elite private schools, this is a premier position that allows you to stroll along Kinane Street to the golden sands and bathing boxes of Dendy Beach, or wander to Church Street’s cafes, dining, bars and cinemas, then return home to step into the spa and let the day disappear.
