A must-see wonder in Reid

Reid 5 Dirrawan Gardens

Awarded Master Builders Associationโ€™s โ€˜House of the Yearโ€™ on its completion in 2010, this Reid home was summed up by the judging panel at the time, who quite simply said, โ€œYou have to see it to believe it!โ€

Agent Stephen Bundayโ€™s favourite element of the property is that of surprise.

โ€œEnter an unassuming street frontage, in a whisper-quiet parkland location, and you immediately experience this incredible feeling of awe when you walk into the most unique home you will ever see,โ€ he says.

โ€œFrom the street, itโ€™s a super charming, heritage-listed cottage.โ€ Beyond the front door, the demure faรงade unfurls into a meticulously renovated art deco residence.

16-Hallway

The home is breathtaking upon entry. Intricate parquetry floors extend in all directions, and the eye is drawn to the glass reception gallery, teaming with natural light.

The feeling of warmth and opulence pays homage to the golden era of design.

Descending the sweeping curved staircase will lead you to an atrium-like space โ€“ part ballroom, part gallery โ€“ which further leads into the sub-ground cinema. The fully fledged theatre features tiered luxury seating, a five-metre widescreen, state-of-the-art surround sound, plus a dedicated film room for post-movie socialising.

โ€œYou will forever be the envy of all your friends,โ€ says Stephen. โ€œYou simply will never want to leave, nor will you ever need to.โ€
