DUAL-ZONED URBAN OASIS

A world-class, one-of-a-kind property positioned high on the hill, with uninterrupted views as far as the eye can see, 15 Barnsley Road was formerly two adjacent '60s houses, now on a single-title block and architecturally reconfigured to create an expansive family home, ideal for multi-generational living or welcoming visitors from afar. <br/><br/>Set in spectacular, mainly native gardens, this magnificent residence is an exquisite blend of mid-century aesthetics and contemporary influences. Soaring ceilings, vast expanses of glass, abundant natural light, timber floors and stone accentuate the generous proportions and exceptional sense of space. Simple materials create a true connection to the outdoors, highlighting the home's open flow and organic architectural form. <br/><br/>Extensively improved over the past decade by the current owners, the property is brilliantly configured to meet the demands of modern life, with multiple living areas, five bedrooms, three bathrooms (plus powder room), two kitchens, two laundries, an expansive entertaining deck and cabana, a pebbled terrace with pavilion, a gorgeous 15m pool, a spa, outdoor shower, pond and waterfall. The versatile floorplan offers flexibility, functionality and separation, inviting family and friends to come together for laidback living and entertaining or to relax and unwind in peace. <br/><br/>The two ground-floor wings are connected by the main entrance hall and foyer. Tall carved timber doors open to a long hallway looking out to a pool shaded by a sculptural sea hibiscus and complemented by recycled-brick and granite paving and verdant planting. The east wing boasts a blissfully tranquil formal sitting room with separate entrance and adjacent dining area, opening via a large timber-and-glass sliding door to a modern, well-appointed kitchen. The casual family/TV room features floor-to-ceiling glass that showcases the glorious backyard. Both the dining and living/kitchen areas open to a steel-and-glass conservatory with underfloor heating, ideal for lazing on inclement winter days. There's also a supersized bedroom, stylish bathroom, laundry, built-in bookcase and wine storage. <br/><br/>The upper east wing hosts a heavenly main bedroom with angled ceilings and double-aspect windows framing the treetops, plus a lovely walk-through ensuite and spacious dual-access dressing room. Next door, a huge, impressively sunlit sitting room with triple-aspect windows offers magical city views and access to a tiled balcony that also overlooks the pool, pond and gardens. There's a generous third bedroom/home office with built-in robe that opens onto the pebbled terrace and pavilion. <br/><br/>Across the foyer, the west wing offers casually comfortable open-plan living and dining with wraparound floor-to-ceiling glass overlooking the deck and cabana. There's a well-appointed kitchen adjacent, plus a sublime resting place in front of the fire. Down a hallway are two sizeable bedrooms with built-in robes and a stunning, sun-drenched bathroom, also with floor-to-ceiling glass. <br/><br/>The expansive cabana comes with a BBQ, wok-burner, fridge, blinds, laser-cut screens and jarrah cupboards. To the northwest of this wing is a pebbled terrace with entertaining pavilion overlooking the rose garden. <br/><br/>There are spaces and places for everyone ... to entertain in style, enjoy a BBQ, dine a deux, listen to the birds or seek solitude to relax and unwind. Swim naked, take a spa, shower outdoors and feel completely free; privacy is guaranteed, with no sightlines from neighbouring properties. <br/><br/>As for location, this home is steps from the wonderful Mt Claremont CCGS playing fields and close to Cottesloe Golf Course, Lake Claremont, Bold Park, Mt Claremont village, Claremont Quarter, Cottesloe, Floreat Forum, the beach and excellent school and medical facilities. <br/><br/>15 Barnsley Road is bursting with vibrancy and charm.
