Englehart Homes Project 19

This stately, architecturally designed, five-bedroom residence reflects the grandeur of a French chateau, while matching quality with uncompromising value.

Customised wrought iron entrance gates and sawn bluestone paving leads to a grand colonnade entrance; a classical façade with intricate mouldings, elegant French windows fitted with wrought iron Juliet balconies. An imposing
Spanish slate roof with a bell profile crowns this 570-square-metre Camberwell home, giving the impression of a centuries-old estate.

This French-inspired flair continues inside the home with an elegant foyer with engaged columns, a carved marble fireplace and glazed bespoke cabinetry. The dwelling’s centrepiece is a spectacular French oak spiral staircase with wrought iron, heart-patterned balustrades, lit by a handcrafted leadlight dome above. High-end European parquetry runs throughout the ground floor and a substantial arch with half-metre-thick walls separates formal living
and dining spaces.

State-of-the-art amenities integrate within graciously appointed living and family spaces. Five living zones include formal and family living quarters, an alfresco space, a theatre room, a downstairs guest suite with a walk-in robe
and a generous study.

The grand master suite stretches across the upper level of the home with capacious twin walk-in robes and an ultraluxe marble en suite. An additional living area and three family bedrooms – two with an en suite, study and walk-in robe – complete the second storey.

Downstairs, the vast kitchen includes an eight-person dining table and a substantial island bench constructed from first-grade Calcatta marble – an enviable fixture that is both durable and classically beautiful. A full-scale second kitchen and walk-in pantry also adjoins the primary, open kitchen. A sweeping bay window overlooks the pool and bi-fold doors open to a European-style loggia with square colonnades and an integrated granite kitchen.
