40 Canberra Grove, Brighton East

Beyond the impressionable façade of this architecturally designed family home lies a 4-bed, 2-bath, 2-powder and study floorplan of enviable proportions. Set on over 670sqm of land, this masterfully designed home has been cleverly tailored and luxuriously appointed to the highest of standards.

Upon entry via the Sam Barber-designed gardens, the impact of this striking home is immediate. Three-metre-high ceilings and a direct line of sight to the rear of the property demonstrate its impressive scale and full-height glass windows and doors flood living spaces with natural light. A timeless-modern entertainer’s kitchen features black granite bench tops and luxury appliances, expected of a home of this calibre, include double Miele ovens, an integrated Miele dishwasher and a double Liebherr fridge/freezer. Plentiful storage and an expansive butler’s pantry come as standard and other features include a real flame gas fireplace, formal dining room and custom joinery throughout.

Upstairs, zoning has been deliberately executed to provide separate areas for kids or guests. A lounge/playroom, bathroom, an additional powder room and three bedrooms all with BIRs feature generous proportions. In the master suite, full-height windows with remote blinds and bespoke joinery paves the way for an impressive WIR and an ensuite featuring heated flooring and towel rails, a double vanity and feature skylight.

Externally, an alfresco area with gas BBQ and expertly maintained gardens with uplighting and fully-automated irrigation create a private oasis. An electric heat exchange mineral pool acts as the central focal point of the home and reaps the benefit of a north-facing aspect. A double remote garage with space for two cars and secure off-street parking for a third, additional storage room, automatic gates, video intercom and alarm provide a secure arrangement. Other desirable practicalities include separately zoned heating and cooling, an expansive laundry with laundry chute and drying cupboard, ducted vacuum, mud room with lockers and floor-to-ceiling joinery, an outdoor shower, two further study nooks, and separate home office/optional fifth bedroom.

Within easy walking distance of Haileybury and St Leonard’s College, a stone’s throw from Church St, Dendy Park, Brighton Golf Course and near Bayside’s best local cafes, grocers and amenity, this idyllic family home has everything you need and nothing you don’t.
