169A Ravenscar Street, Doubleview

This contemporary home celebrates an idyllic setting and shares the experience of living in Doubleview, well known for its urban village lifestyle. Here you are only minutes away from the local grocers, great surf and swimming beaches of the Indian Ocean and only just a short stroll to the neighbouring Bradley Reserve.

Drawing on a restraint material palette with durable finishes and architectural details, the upside-down design culminates into a light filled cozy interior space that seamlessly assimilates the living from its balcony. The design is split over two levels allowing a degree of separation from the theatre and minor bedrooms whilst the main living area and master bedroom occupies the second storey – so important in a family residence.

The bold geometric façade creates an instant first visual attraction from the curb side. Glass sliding doors create a seamless indoor-outdoor flow for fabulous entertaining with a leafy tree outlook. The balcony is fitted out with a television reception point, built-in alfresco kitchenette and a stone benchtop cradles an Everdure gas barbecue. The setting particularly dictates the design in other ways, too. The balcony is screened with an extensive use of obscure glazing which gives the residence a transparent quality.

The front garden offers a covered outdoor Cabana to break out and unwind too. Merbau decking and poured aggregate ensure minimal ongoing maintenance for its new owners and with the property well fenced, it enjoys good privacy from passers-by.

Plush pile charcoal carpets, led downlights, coffered and negative detail ceilings decorate the theatre for the ultimate cinematic experience. Wide matt porcelain tiles stretch from the commanding entry through to the minor bedrooms each accommodating double ensembles and offering double built in robes. A concealed mini bar or kitchenette services the guest bedrooms with an adjoining enclosed powder room on each level.

The introduction of a timber grain tile to the gas fire of the main living area allows the space to reflect the natural elements of nature. The fireplace forms a social connection with the living area and will be a favourite room to withdraw too in inclement weather. Myzone air conditioning permits you to adjust the living area to adjust to your own comfort levels throughout the year whilst cross ventilation sliding doors and ceiling fans harvest the breeze. LED downlights on dimmer switches allow you to adjust the lighting to suit your everyday work needs or you could tone it down to create a softer atmosphere on those laid back weekends.

The kitchen has been treated as part of the living area. Stone waterfall benchtops anchor its striking modern design. White benchtops are poured over dark chocolate brown timber grain laminate wrap cabinets. AEG stainless steel appliances will allow you to cook restaurant quality meals at home. Softclose drawers, tilt up overhead cabinets and a concealed larder provides clever and functional storage without making any compromise on space and style.

There is a calmness and room for self-reflection to the main bedroom. Clerestory windows offer improved privacy from neighbours from its elevated position with broad sweeps of light reminiscent of the blue skies and sunny warmth of a beautiful spring day from its raised ceilings. A square form white tub, grey glass mosaic tiles and an obscure glazed shower and wc adds to the ensuite's ambience. A generous his and hers walk in robe is custom fitted with hanging and storage space.

All the conveniences and comforts of the active lifestyle is catered for with high garage clearance and rear roller door access to accommodate secure parking for your boat. A dedicated powered store room doubles as a work space with ample shelving.

A shopper's entry leads into the home for convenience. A central passageway connects the laundry and family bathroom. The laundry is decorated with a stone benchtop, a stainless-steel trough and a practical laundry shoot which demonstrates the thoughtfulness in even the finer, every day functions of the homes design. The family bathroom offers double Caroma basins resting on a stone vanity set with a glass shower and large white bath for the family to recline too. There is further built in linen storage, an intercom system and you can enjoy a little more peace of mind resting in the knowledge that the home offers good security. Low maintenance aggregate finishing to the front and rear courtyards will ensure your weekends are kept free to do more of the things you love. Enquire today.
