Representing the culmination of more than four decades of experience in luxury residential design and construction, this magnificent French-inspired residence was the final display home creation of Ron Englehart, founder of a renowned, multi-award-winning luxury homebuilding legacy.

Personally created under his direction prior to the sale of the business, this exceptional residence showcases the architectural elegance, meticulous craftsmanship and uncompromising attention to detail that established Ron Englehart's distinguished reputation over 43 years. Recognised with four prestigious Victorian and National Home Industry awards, this extraordinary residence delivers an exceptional standard of contemporary family luxury, complemented by a substantial north-facing rear entertaining precinct incorporating an expansive covered alfresco area with a fully equipped outdoor kitchen, an extra-large swimming pool and spa.

An imposing French-inspired façade behind automatic gates, off-street parking and landscaped gardens ushers in a magnificent double-storey interior, perfectly maintained for superior comfort by a home automation system, central heating and cooling, ducted vacuum, built-in speakers, security alarm and CCTV surveillance. A grand entrance hallway provides an impressive introduction to the scale and sophistication showcased throughout a flexible layout filled with natural light.
A particularly outstanding feature of the home's thoughtful design is its exceptional accommodation flexibility. A beautifully appointed ground-floor guest bedroom with ensuite provides an ideal retreat for visiting family and friends, extended family and or multigenerational living. Upstairs, four additional bedrooms, complemented by a spacious lounge and retreat, offer luxurious family accommodation, with four ensuites throughout the residence. The magnificent main bedroom features a custom-designed dressing room and premium floor to ceiling porcelain-tiled ensuite with dual vanity, freestanding stone bath and rainfall shower, while another bedroom enjoys picturesque city views.

A dedicated home theatre is also purpose-fitted to a superior standard.

Polished oak floorboards and generous three-metre ceilings enhance the grandeur of the ground floor, leading to an expansive family living and dining zone.
