Nestled on the Golden Mile of Mount Macedon Road, The Laurels stands as a testament to architectural elegance and thoughtful design. This expansive home offers a lifestyle of flexibility and comfort, perfect for modern families or multi-generational living. As you approach the front door, you are welcomed by a grand atrium that sets the tone for the spaciousness and light-filled interiors within.
The downstairs immediately affords the openness of the home, with the heart of the living space centred around the kitchen and family/dining area. The kitchen is a true culinary haven, featuring a 900mm oven, double sink, and integrated fridge, and ample storage with stylish cupboards that line the walls. The space is as functional as it is beautiful, designed for both day-to-day living and entertaining. The home?s unique layout allows for easy flow between the kitchen, dining, and the living room, making it perfect for gatherings or quiet moments with family. The light filled kitchen has a frameless glass box window maximising light from the enclosed outdoor entertaining area.
The downstairs level also features two spacious bedrooms, one with its own private ensuite, offering the perfect retreat. Other features are a study, communications room, integrated access to the double garage, and large laundry.
A standout feature of the home is the stunning indoor swimming pool, equipped with both solar and electric heaters, ensuring year-round enjoyment. Whether you're swimming laps or simply relaxing by the pool, this space adds a luxurious touch to everyday life.
The entire downstairs area is kept comfortable with hydronic gas heating, while two split system air conditioners provide additional cooling in the warmer months. For added comfort, electric underfloor heating warms the wet areas, ensuring a cozy environment even on the coldest days.
Upstairs is a separate haven for entertainment or separate living. Here, two more beautifully appointed bedrooms await, each with its own ensuite, offering privacy and comfort for family members or guests. Plus a full kitchen upstairs is a chef?s dream, featuring a 1200mm Smeg gas cooktop and electric oven, perfect for preparing meals for larger gatherings or casual family dinners. The open-plan living and dining areas seamlessly connect to the upstairs outdoor deck, making it easy to entertain or simply enjoy the views in peace. Also a theatre room for Friday movie nights. A bridge walkover adds an architectural flourish and connects different areas of the home, elevating the design to new heights.
For added convenience, there is a Euro laundry upstairs, and the kitchen area is complemented by ducted electric heating, ensuring the space remains comfortable throughout the year. The large open sliders leading to the deck create a natural indoor/outdoor flow, ideal for alfresco dining and relaxing in the fresh air.
A self-contained studio is ideal for guests or extra privacy. Complete with an ensuite and a private deck with built-in robes, this space provides the perfect retreat for guests or independent family members. Whether used for a visiting relative, a home office, or even as a rental space, the studio offers privacy and flexibility.
The house is surrounded by a stunning and historic garden with established European trees and exotic plantings. Pathways and expansive lawn areas provide several garden rooms adding to the romance of the garden.
