Whether you recognise this celebrated home from its star turn on Grand Designs, from its link to renowned motorcycle designer John Britten, or from its historic origins associated with neighbouring Mona Vale homestead, The Britten Stables is, quite simply, exceptional.
Converted by John Britten into a home from its former roots as the horse stable for Mona Vale (circa 1903) and significantly remodelled in 2018, The Britten Stables offers a rich history and unique ambience. Step through the statement front door and enter a tropical paradise of timeless design and incredible natural beauty. Be mesmerised by the bold contemporary aesthetic, which aligns perfectly with the exposed raw materials of the original structure.
Spanning more than 900sqm of pure luxury, the Stable's centrepiece is its spectacular glass conservatory; the curved marble staircase sweeps through the internal garden to the surrounding balcony above. Here, you Will feel like you are on holiday every day, with heated plunge pool, oasis gardens and sheltered north-facing outlook. This home is equally stunning whether enjoyed by day, or by night.
All bedrooms are appointed with luxurious ensuites and the home boasts multiple living, kitchen and dining spaces, meaning you can experience a change of perspective without ever needing to leave home. Every detail has been considered, from wine cellar to media room and master bedroom with his-and-hers ensuite. A newly completed, New York style loft apartment, located in a separate dwelling, overlooks the garden and provides yet more options to establish a home office or further accommodation.
