A two-minute amble from The Strand waterfront: tick. A private rooftop terrace: tick. Luxe from go to whoa: tick. Six-star energy rating: tick. And so it goes at this sophisticated, contemporary residence.
From the façade and outdoor areas to beautiful internal spaces, the palette of greys with black accents creates a sense of harmonious flow, with soft-grey sheers at windows the perfect dreamy complement. Lovely matte Tassy oak floorboards and grey carpet and tiling maintain the look.
Beyond a leafy garden, the black front door swings open to the spacious living domain, with the kitchen tucked to the side.

Looking great, black designer pendants above the stone-topped brekkie bench (for four) pick up the black frames of french and single doors to a private, grey-concrete courtyard.
Seamless white 2pac cabinetry with loads of soft-closing drawers, and Bosch pyrolytic oven, gas cooktop and dishwasher fit out the cooks’ superb domain. The next-door laundry adjoins a powder room.
Upstairs, three fitted bedrooms and swish fully tiled main bathroom (with freestanding tub) wrap around a living space, with a spot for a study nook. The main bedroom, with chic fully tiled en suite, opens to a balcony.
Brivis zoned refrigerated cooling and gas ducted heating, plus gas-boosted solar HWS, and security and outdoor sensor lights are on board.
The rooftop terrace is a beauty, with high privacy walls and built-in seating ready to make gathering with friends quite special. And the remote-controlled double garage is accessed from the rear.
Low-maintenance and beautifully formed, the property has everything to live up to its blue-chip locale.
