Towering Beauty with a City View & Church Street Precinct
A significant home on a highpoint of the Church St precinct, St Ronans c.1870 takes its place as one of Bayside’s notable homes and one of the grandest examples of Brighton family living - complete with a towering city view.
Expertly restored and architect-extended to offer six bedrooms, 4.5 bathrooms and multiple living areas across the main home and converted stables, the property transitions from grand formal lounge and dining rooms, to a breathtaking conservatory-style family zone, before stepping up past two study areas to a panoramic CBD skyline view from the parapeted tower.
Able to accommodate the biggest, blended or extended family in rare comfort with ensuite access for most bedrooms (including a garden-view master with walk-in-robe), the home is cleverly zoned with a separate-entry wing (ideal for adult children, in-laws or guests) in addition to separate self-contained overflow (or staff) accommodation in the stables-conversion.
Graced with 4.2m ceilings, marble fireplaces (most gas-converted) and rare features including a walk-down cellar, the home’s architectural upgrade is completed in fittingly up-scale style. Finely detailed with Australian hardwood flooring and custom cabinetry for the granite and Miele kitchen, this substantial home is appointed with hydronic heating plus ducted air-conditioning, video-intercom plus alarm, 3 phase power, auto-blinds for the conservatory roofline and Bose surround-sound across the living zones.
Set in substantial approx 1398sqm grounds with palm-shaded lawns to the front, the property’s very private hedged surrounds included a walled garden with tiled spa at its northernmost edge. Auto-irrigated from a 50,000L underground tank, there’s a secondary entry from Black St and three-car auto-gated parking including a pavilion-style double carport.
Beautifully positioned on the edge of the Church St retail precinct, just one block from the shopping strip, this elevated residence is high on family amenity with all the schools within a few blocks (or just down the railway line), the bay within a walk, and the CBD within 20 minutes and in view.
