5 Cook Street, Ivanhoe

Beautifully Bespoke & Substantial Family Entertainer

The ultimate family entertainer in a quiet pocket by parklands, this beautiful custom-designed and built contemporary residence delivers expansive, thoughtfully-zoned living over two north-oriented levels amid manicured pool-side garden from award-winning Seyffer Designs.

Crafted for a family who values extensive space and everyday performance, a substantial light-filled interior unfolds with a strong sense of luxury, sophistication and balance with a two-level void and wide entrance hallway revealing double-doors to a large main bedroom suite with a fitted walk-in robe and a luxurious floor-heated ensuite.

A ground-floor lounge or home cinema offers fabulous flexibility to adapt as desired, followed by a wine cellar/linen press, powder room, a full laundry (chute) and deep under-stair storage.

The versatility of the layout continues upstairs where a generous lounge/retreat and a separate open study are accompanied by four well-proportioned bedrooms, each appointed with fitted desks and walk-in or built-in robes.

Superbly finished with pure wool carpets, extensive storage and excellent acoustic separation, the upper level functions as a calm and highly functional zone, with one of the bedrooms enjoying its own ensuite, while the remaining accommodation is served by an immaculate central bathroom and an additional powder room.

At the rear, an open-planned family arrangement of dedicated dining and high-ceiling living areas integrating a ceiling fan and a cosy wood fireplace, extend to a stunning gourmet kitchen where a stone-topped breakfast island, soft-close cabinetry, induction cooking, quality appliances and a walk-in pantry make for daily perfection and effortless entertaining.

Full-height sliding doors and picture windows draw the interior outward to an undercover terrace (ceiling fan, heat-strips) where the setting flawlessly unfolds to a fully-equipped BBQ station and a magnificent swimming pool and spa featuring automated self-cleaning, dosing and filling systems. There's nothing to do but relax and entertain with family and friends in secluded and sunny, landscaped environs.

Completing this exceptional all-electric home is a comprehensive suite of high-calibre appointments including zoned ducted heating and cooling, full insulation to walls and floors, heated bathroom floors, CCTV and alarm system, a high-capacity solar electricity system, three-phase power ready for EV charging, and an extra-wide internal double garage with remote-control access, along with rainwater storage and app-controlled irrigation.

This brilliantly bespoke and as-new domain is a rare family sanctuary of remarkable appeal bringing together impressive scale, finish and functionality in a prized position between parklands including the Darebin Creek trail, while also close to quality schools, Ivanhoe retail-restaurant precinct, public transport and the Austin and Mercy Hospitals.
