Parkside Precision
Completed in 2023 and constructed in lightweight concrete, the home rises across three levels, its classic design cues recast through a contemporary lens, pairing symmetry and stature with modern performance and precision.
Expanse defines the interior, where arched windows rise against a three-metre stud, coffered ceilings crown the lounge, and a private lift connects every floor, shifting daily living from functional to effortless.
The home
Bedrooms are evenly distributed for privacy, with elite-level accommodation taking its place on the top floor. Two en-suite bedrooms are led by a master suite with a fully appointed dressing room and a spa-calibre bathroom featuring an opulent soaking tub framed by fluted columns, a tiled shower and a bidet.
Everyday living claims the middle level, unfolding in an open-plan layout that remains deliberately defined, with dedicated domains for dining, unwinding and work. Entertaining reaches benchmark standards in the clean-lined kitchen, where engineered stone surfaces, a concealed scullery and premium appliances deliver at scale.
Outdoors, a front-facing balcony commands treetop views across Hagley Park, while a courtyard with a water feature changes the pace, stepping down to the landscaped garden below.
Two further bedrooms are privately positioned on the ground floor, opening to the grounds where a second water feature and park outlook shape a setting equally suited to guests or a refined home office.
