Period perfection with a modern twist

WHEN a rare and large blockcomplete with a 1940s dwellingbecame available on Forrest Street,an inspired couple saw anopportunity to build a stately homebetter suited to the streetscape.

The result of their grand vision,with its sweeping verandahs, castiron lacework and prominentturret, would appear circa 1900s,perhaps even earlier.

However, the heritage styledbeauty belies its true age – number137 was constructed in 2008.

The grand home, spanning some1434sqm, was painstakinglydesigned and completed in fouryears.

Inside and out, the attention todetail has been executedexquisitely.

Antique chandeliers were

sourced from around the worldand a Cornish craftsman wascommissioned to handcarve thedoor handles.

Even the bathroom vanity unitswere handmade in Tuscany.

A custom made ceiling domeabove the stairs features ahummingbird motif.

It was replicated to match theantique brass door handles on thesecond floor.

Black wrought iron gates, in the

style of Victorian Italianatearchitecture, enclose the groundsof this gracious residence, whichcan only be described as awe-inspiring on viewing.

Guests are well catered for asthe home has six bedrooms, fivebathrooms and five living areas.

There is also a formal lounge anddining, plus a home theatre andspacious office.

The luxurious kitchen featureshand-painted cabinetry, and was

styled on the designs of the Britishcabinetmaker, Clive Christian.

Stunning landscaped gardens areplayground to the owner’s fourchildren, and the rear lawns stretchtowards Hurstford Close.

Well established oak andmagnolia trees provide shade andcontrast, and an ideal spot to sitquietly and contemplate life.

There are vegetable gardens forthe provision of fresh produce, andan outdoor pool completes the

vision for a healthy lifestyle.“We have always owned and

been attracted to period homes,”said one owner.

“The beauty of this home is thatwe have created the feeling of anold house, but have includedmodern conveniences.

“This is something you simplycouldn’t achieve in renovating anoriginal older home,” he said.

“Quality should last a lifetime,”added the co-owner. ■
