INSPECTION ONLY AVAILABLE BY PRIOR REGISTRATION
A landmark mid-century home of the 1960s, graced with a benchmark renovation for today, this substantial Robin Boyd-era home is a Modernist masterpiece in 836sqm grounds ...right where so many modern families want to live. A notable presence on this streetscape of prestige family homes, this substantial brick home showcases a respectful renovation with a curvaceous kitchen featuring high-specification Fisher & Paykel appliances, a bespoke fully-tiled bathroom and ensuite, and designer lighting ...all against a remarkable retro backdrop of random-stone flooring, a Castlemaine stone wall (with dual gas and open fireplaces), cool mid-century glazing and warm timber panelling.

Maximising north-west sun with living zones upstairs and down linked by a sweeping ‘floating’ stair, the home is cleverly zoned around a lofty central lobby with a dedicated master-domain comprising a garden-view bedroom, separate dressing room and sleek ensuite. With an adaptable fifth bedroom on the ground floor (ideal as a huge home-office or third living zone), the home steps up with a dedicated kids’ level of queen-sized bedrooms, a separate upstairs retreat and spaces sized to work or relax, including some with fitted workstations.

Climate-controlled by hydronic heating and individual reverse-cycle climate-control, every contemporary comfort is here. Secured by video-intercom and alarm in auto-gated grounds, there’s an EV charger for the oversized double auto-garage, 10,000L of underground water storage for healthy gardens, and a creative landscape of groomed hedges, curvaceous lawns and stone terraces – cut through by a sweeping showpiece driveway.

Secure one of Bayside’s notable mid-century homes, move in and live today with nothing more to do, but stretch out in the space, set the kids free in the estate-like 846sqm gardens and find every modern family amenity in reach. A last-minute morning dash to Haileybury and St Leonard’s Colleges and minutes to the central Brighton schools, including Brighton Grammar and Firbank, there’s the choice of Hampton St’s relaxed beachside latte strip and Church St’s world-class retail therapy, and Brighton Beach station and the iconic bathing boxes direct down South Rd.
