It’s easy to think that every house in a subdivision looks just like every other. 30 Henderson Drive, Alexandra, changes that thinking.
This custom designed 2018-built colorsteel and cedar four-bedroom two-bathroom home was never going to be ‘just another cookie cutter house’.
With the owner’s attention to detail, style, space, clean lines and clever thinking, this property is both funky and exceptional.
Right from the double doors at the front entrance, you’re seamlessly invited through the foyer and hallway into the hub of the home - an area that looks like it’s been designed by a chef for a chef. The huge butler’s pantry, complete with sink, dishwasher, and double fridge/freezer, is relatively hidden, while the designer kitchen, which also comes with a sink, dishwasher, fridge, and large freestanding oven, opens out to the dining and living area under a spacious raked ceiling. An example of the clever thinking here – the rangehood built into the ceiling. The skylight and mirror splashback highlighting the clean lines and minimalism this space, and home, offers.
The dining and living area, which is heated by a ‘clever’ log burner and efficient whole-home ducted heating/air conditioning unit, opens out through large stacker doors to an Australian hardwood deck, multiple private outdoor entertaining areas and a what’s known as a food forest. With lots of sun and drip irrigation this residential garden produces asparagus, garlic, strawberries, peaches, apricots, plums and so much more. At this point - you’d be forgiven for thinking you were living rurally.
Back in the house, as well as the master, there are a further three double bedrooms. The floor to ceiling tiled family bathroom, complete with spa bath and underfloor heating, is a classic. While the house, with separate laundry and two-car garaging is stunning, the master suite raises the bar again. The large, striking dark blue and white bedroom flows into one of the finest all-tiled ensuite bathrooms you’ll see. With underfloor heating, his and her shower and luxurious soaker bath, the grey, black, and white palette ensures this stylish space will never date. The master suite doesn’t have a walk-in-wardrobe – taking care of the clutter - it has a ‘dressing room’ complete with a make-up station. This graceful area is finely finished with a private sun-soaked deck backing on to that magical wee food forest.
There are four-bedroom two-bathroom Alexandra homes – then there’s 30 Henderson Drive. Everything about this property is top drawer.
There’s so much more I could say – but this ‘writer’ is running out of space – come and take a look.
30 Henderson Drive – your future starts here.
