24 Normanby Street, Brighton, Vic 3186

This grand Victorian is set on 1030 sqm (approx.) of prime Bayside land in one of Brighton's most prestigious addresses.  Perfectly positioned just steps from the Brighton Baths, the beach, and a short walk to Church Street retail/dining precinct, and some of Melbourne's elite schools.
 
Beyond a historic frontage, imposing gates, two garages and rare double driveways providing secure parking for five, lies a truly grand and architecturally renovated home of magnificent scale and proportions. Five bedrooms, with flexibility for use as a home office, four bathrooms, formal dining and lounge rooms, and multiple separate living zones unfold through this extraordinary single level home.  
 
The original front section of the residence maintains its rich Victorian heritage, with soaring high ceilings, a grand double-width, arched hallway and multiple marble fireplaces.  The vast main suite showcases bay windows, walk-in wardrobe and marble ensuite.  The front library/home office also enjoys bay windows and bespoke cabinetry.  Stunning formal lounge and dining rooms are complemented by a further expansive separate entertainment room.  

The contemporary addition to the house continues the grand scale, with a professional chef-standard Ilve and Miele kitchen including a vast two aisle butler's pantry, and further living and meals areas with a large, modern open fireplace.  A separate wing at the rear of the property provides two additional bedrooms, a bathroom and a children's retreat or study.
 
The multiple living areas all encompass a stunning, auto-cleaning dual-heated (gas and solar) pool, spa and magnolia-lined, manicured gardens. Sliding glass doors from living and entertainment zones open out onto to a large undercover deck with extendable electronic awnings, providing a perfect private setting for year-round relaxation and entertainment.

Further features including hydronic heating throughout, zoned reverse cycle air-conditioning, a walk down cellar with cedar racking for approximately 1500 bottles, and a fully fitted laundry complete with drying room. Every possible comfort has been considered in this beautiful Bayside family home.
