37 Addison Street, Elwood

An exclusive address widely recognised as one of Elwood’s best contemporary homes. Designed by award-winning architecture firm, Adam Kane Architects, the Bayside House, as it is commonly known, is one of the finest examples of modern-day architecture blending effortlessly with its heritage surrounds.

Nestled within a quiet street of Edwardian brick homes, the striking façade is comprised of a solid brick configuration, punctuated by glazing, and a glass front door concealed by hit-and-miss brickwork. Designed to be a private oasis with a timeless aesthetic and a suite of robust materials, this masterful home on over 515sqm (approx.) of land features a flexible floor plan with four/five bedrooms, four bathrooms, and a study.

Upon entry, the effortless sophistication and purity of the design of the home is immediately evident. A generous breezeway leads directly into the wide-open space of the north-facing living areas, where a simple, clean aesthetic has been expertly applied. Endless panes of sliding glass connect the living, kitchen, and dining spaces with the external areas, opening out to a magnesium swimming pool and spa, sheltered courtyard and Bethany Wiliamson-designed gardens.

The attention to detail within the home is extraordinary with polished plaster walls, Signorino stone and American Oak flooring offering an effortless, care-free living environment. In the kitchen, state-of the-art appliances, porcelain benchtops and a second kitchen area/walk-in pantry make for a functional arrangement that is without compromise. A gas fireplace in the main living area is complemented by hydronic in-floor heating, a feature Moooi pendant, and a concealed bar situated between the kitchen and main living zones.

Upstairs, the master suite features an oversized balcony, expansive walk-in-robe and an ensuite of lavish proportions. A further two bedrooms, both with BIR, and additional bathroom provide an uncomplicated arrangement for families. Other features include Leviton security system, video intercom entry, tough turf mini basketball court, spacious double garage with rear lane access, a self-contained large bedroom/gym above the garage, sauna room/wine cellar, Daikin heating and cooling, and abundant storage.

The Bayside House revels in its proximity to Jerry’s Milk Bar, Acland Street and the sandy shores of Elwood Beach. An opportunity rarely seen in Elwood, this immaculately designed, perfectly situated home needs to be seen to be believed.
