Nestled into its prime hillside position with spectacular unobstructed views, that cannot be built out, this north-facing property basks in the area's famed micro-climate on the lower slopes of Clifton Hill. Absorbing ever changing sights over the sea, the estuary, Shag Rock, along the coastline and right around to the city and snow-capped Alps.
An inspired extension above and below the traditional 1960s core by Architect John Chaplin has contributed effortless liveability, allowing this expansive triple-level abode to capably tackle the demands of modern living.
At its peak, the top floor offers a sublime entrance with its large-scale living zone boasting timber ceilings and floor to ceiling glazing that unfold outdoors to a sizable balcony with shelter where you can savour the scenery. A clever inclusion is a dumbwaiter that organically links to the kitchen, allowing you to entertain easily, while a study and separate toilet are further practicalities.
The home's original framework and middle floor is the natural hub for everyday activities, playing host to the kitchen and dining area, and a separate lounge that extends outdoors to yet another balcony. Accommodation on this level comes in the form of the generous primary master suite, a second bedroom and a family bathroom.
A well-appointed ground floor fitted with a wine cellar, laundry, second bathroom and another master option with outdoor access finalises this superbly arranged floor plan.
Classically appointed décor lends timeless appeal to the interior while presenting the opportunity for enhancement, with PVC double glazing and four heat pumps providing comfort.
The irrigated well cared for grounds are peppered with fruiting citrus trees, with a glasshouse enabling season-round harvests. The location is supreme, fronting onto Mulgans Track, where you can wander directly down to Moncks Bay and around to Sumner Beach. Located at the end of a lane with drive-on access to a double garage with off street parking and a lift.
The vendor has relished the landscape and lifestyle for over 50 years, but a move to care means a sale will be achieved.
