The brainchild of the avant-garde owners, this unique and fascinating award-winning property is an absolute stunner. Located close to the clifftops at Botany Bay and built to their design about eight years ago, it is easy to maintain whether you are looking for a permanent family home or a truly special holiday and weekend seaside residence. The first thing you notice is the beautiful black split face slate tiled wall providing privacy at the front of the house and this slate tiling continues around to the side of the house adjacent to the block paved driveway and surrounds the black door to the double garage. It is complimented by the impressive external walls of the property that are clad in sand-blasted black painted larch. The property has been created as three ‘pods,’ with the family living space as a single storey pod and the remaining ground and first floor accommodation made up of separate two storey pods each side of a secluded central courtyard. There is also a separate building currently used as a home office but could be a self-contained annexe as it has a kitchenette, en suite and store. An automatic sliding door entry system opens into the secluded front garden with a very useful outdoor shower this is ideal for a sluice down after a day on the beach, a walk with the dog or an early morning run, and a huge firepit surrounding by a paved patio where you can enjoy the morning sunshine. The contemporary Urban Front entrance door opens into a vast, triple aspect very light and bright open plan family space with split face slate wall features, polished concrete flooring, underfloor heating and particularly wide aluminium framed sliding patio doors to the front terrace, the central courtyard and to the rear garden. At least a dozen guests can sit down to a meal in the spacious dining area while friends and family can enjoy the large seating area with built in shelving and a trendy Stovax log burner to provide a warming focal point on a cool winter’s evening. Central to this open plan space is the superb kitchen/breakfast area that will delight anyone who enjoys cooking and catering. There are a wall of flat fronted oak units with top quality Dekton worktops incorporating a variety of Siemens appliances including two built in ovens, an integrated fridge and freezer, dishwasher and wine cooler as well as a Quooker boiling water tap. On the spacious central island/breakfast bar there is an induction hob with a concealed extractor. Cleverly designed behind the wall units is a fitted utility room with an additional wine cooler, fridge freezer and laundry facilities as well as a back door for easy access to the discreetly hidden bin area and access to the front and rear of the property. The first of the two storey pods includes the double garage with built in storage facilities and the elegant lounge that has a wall of sliding patio doors to the charmingly designed courtyard with a tree as a centre focal point. While an attractive ply staircase from the family living space with understairs storage leads to the upper floor. This has luxury LVT Amtico herringbone style flooring that covers all the first floor areas and where you will find the fabulous master suite. It comprises a delightful light and bright bedroom with a contemporary bath and a veritable wall of wide patio doors that open to a glass Juliette balcony overlooking the central courtyard. There is also access to a spacious dressing room with triple sliding cupboards and a central full height mirror as well as a frosted glass sliding door to the ensuite with walk-in shower, double vanity basin and storage cupboards. The rear two storey pod includes a snug/double bedroom with a cleverly designed and concealed pull down double bed and built in cupboards and an adjacent contemporary wet room. There is a storage cupboard that contains the projector for the impressive cinema room which is also designed as a charming garden room. It has a vast picture window overlooking the rear garden with a drop down screen that covers it when the room is in use as a cinema as well as patio doors to the rear terrace that can also be covered when required. A matching second staircase leads up to a family bathroom with a large oval bath, separate shower and vanity basin and two double bedrooms including one with built in wardrobes, shelving and bedroom furniture and patio doors to a Juliette balcony overlooking the courtyard. While the other bedroom includes a fold down double bed, built in wardrobes and drawers as well as patio doors opening onto a glass Juliette balcony with views across the very secluded and easy-to-maintain rear garden. A large rear polished concrete terrace is just the place to enjoy the afternoon and early evening sunshine and includes an outdoor kitchen with Broil grills for barbecues and al fresco meals. It leads to a very spacious artificial grass lawn surrounded by a brick wall with shrubs and both laurel and red robin bushes and a concrete path that leads to a charming tree house the kids will enjoy and the excellent annexe with external storage. The annexe is designed to complement the house with a black sand-blasted larch exterior and two sets of French doors to a private terrace. It is currently in use as an office so would be ideal for anyone working from home who does not wish to be disturbed by any activities in the house. However, it could always be converted into separate accommodation for elderly relatives, adult children or as a holiday let as it is well insulated with plywood internal walls and flooring and has a fitted kitchenette with a sink, fridge and hob, a contemporary shower room, shelving and a large storage cupboard.
