Power House

This 1952 substation first saw its transition to unique urban dwelling in 1993. Since then the building has been tightly held and enhanced by each of the 3 owners. My Vendors' legacy is a clever extension that has given this unique building the size and scope it deserves. Now boasting an internal access garage, large guest bedroom and full working utility area and laundry, along with the most impressive roof garden, entertainment area and spa pool overlooking 360 degree breath taking views!

The home itself is secured behind a solid block wall complete with impressive copper doors, enter into the inner sanctuary and find lush tropical gardens, well planted and completely private. An impressive 5 metre stud greets you inside, with a dynamic curved staircase cutting through the extensive living area to the mezzanine level which links the master bedroom and ensuite with a further bedroom.

The hub of the open plan living space centres around a functional kitchen, black corian bench tops and beech and jarrah cabinetry designed by Leonie Von Sturmer have stood the test of time, and incorporate industrial features that nod to the buildings history.

The living and dining areas are balanced by a second sitting area which opens outdoors to manicured lawn and gardens, featuring a tranquil fish pond and fountain, that exudes peace and privacy. The master bathroom has been cleverly remodelled and with the large bath sitting under bifold windows that open to the same tranquil garden, thoughts of resort or spa come to mind. The office or study space also accesses the lush gardens and enjoys complete privacy.

A snug TV room provides a further escape, with gas fireplace for warmth and ambiance, a place for family or guests to curl up and the large guest bedroom annexed off the hall. Completing the extension a utility room, laundry, single secure car garage, further off street parking and storage.

A truly remarkable offering, a sense of space, light and tranquillity here that will not be repeated.
