I just happened to be browsing thru Williamstown properties tonight,
and I found this one. Some of the interior design is fabulous!
The Agent says the home was featured in the
Luxury Home Design Magazine Dec/Jan 2009.

OK, so beautiful Victorian heritage homes
like this are always off to a good start
when they have been restored...

Night time!

OK, so the red sofas are dominating, but if you can
look past that, the room, restoration and general feeling
of this outlook is lovely.

And dining room has "potential"...

But kitchen/living is gorgeous!

Check out the bedroom with spunk!

How cute is this bathroom!

Even the laundry is lovely!

And here's the Master Plan!

AND here's what the Agent said about it!

TOP 5 Brighton Homes (No.5)

Brighton Beach for a backyard...
General Features
PRICE RANGE: $5.25 Million

• Property Type: House
• Bedrooms: 3
• Bathrooms: 3
• Building Size: 404.96 m² (44 squares) approx

Indoor Features

• Living Areas: 3

Outdoor Features

• Garage Spaces: 4

Although an apartment, it still renders over $5 Million
because it's on the beach.
The view of the house (below) is from the beach, not the road.

It comes with a lift, which takes you to the basement
where you have four car parks of your own.

I find living areas with all white (marble) floor tiles are stunning
to walk through, but I didn't want them in our home with young kids!

I'm not sure what those timber walls are, perhaps wardrobes,

that would be gorgeous if it was!

And there it is in all it's glory, your backyard,
Brighton Beach.

But why swim in the smelly beach, if you can
swim in your own pool overlooking the smelly beach!
Not a bad way to impress ya mates!

AND here's what the Agent said!

Bayside luxurious penthouse w/ breathtaking sea & city skyline views
Live like a king and lap up the luxury in this glamorous waterfront elevated apartment by acclaimed SJB Architects with uninterrupted views across the foreshore and glistening bay with the city skyline and Westgate Bridge forming a dramatic backdrop.

The best of the best, the ultimate in indulgence…this is more than a home it’s a lifestyle experience that’s designed to spoil and pamper. Designer detail from top-to-toe creates a polished penthouse style with sublime garden surrounds by award-winning Jack Merlo and endless Travertine flooring flowing from indoors to out.

One of only a handful of Brighton homes to enjoy absolute foreshore frontage, the view takes centre stage from the sophisticated open plan living and dining wing which spills to a wrap-around terrace with elevated sea-viewing spa. The knock-out kitchen is a work of art with its Calcutta marble island bench, the very best appliances by Gaggenau and a Liebherr glass fronted wine fridge. A cinema room adds to the spoilt lifestyle.

Three bedrooms, all with luxury marble ensuites, the main with marble encased bath, continue the indulgence.

Impeccable inclusions include an internal lift, 4 car basement parking, heating, cooling, back-to-base monitored alarm, keycard and remote entry, video security, automatic window blinds, gas pebble fireplace, wired for TV, FOXTEL/audio and sound system, soft touch light switches, internal store room, luxury powder room and more.

Other property features:

Large outdoor entertaining terrace with spa
4 car security parking
15 mintues drive from the CBD

This home is not the huge, grand, typical house
in Brighton, much more homely, I really liked it.
Better price tag too!!!

Often the case, beautiful homes hidden behind large hedges and fences so you can't always appreciate a lot of them from the street anymore.

I love the use of colour in this home.

Extensions make for old & new blending...

Lovely bedroom, has a very personal feel to it.

I think this rear yard is delightful, very inviting.

Here's the Master Plan!
