11 The Outlook, HORNSBY HEIGHTS

Architectural Masterpiece

The Outlook is in a prestige estate of beautiful homes in an exclusive cul-de-sac. It is power-line free and has national parks all around and sits in stillness and absolute quiet. Built in 1999 on a 685sqm approx site, this is a pristine contemporary open-plan 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom, double carport architect designed home. Purposely crafted to harmonise with the natural topography of a site, it accommodates fabulous steeply pitched rooflines. The design of the whole is a three dimensional living artwork that directly affects your mood, bringing it into phenomenally tranquil, peaceful states with notions of permanency, the futuristic, and of heartfelt cosiness.

Interplays of light, spaces and shapes, creamy colour schemes with accents of aubergine and Oregon and rich floors in satin finished Australian Beech with Jarrah details, enhance a feature internal colonnade that extends beyond structural needs. This adds to the art-and-design quality, defining the lounge, dining, kitchen and breakfast spaces and retaining an open flow through. Just about every room faces north, picture windows perforating the walls to frame beautiful views to Galston Gorge. The deck is an ideal shape and size to entertain and to be uplifted by magnificent awe-inspiring sunsets.

The ample lounge area has a granite hearth and Jetmaster open fireplace, gas heating, and a R/C split air. The stylish kitchen has benchtops inlaid into recycled Oregon, S/S appliances including Bosch 4-burner gas, cooktop and oven, and a new Fisher & Paykel dishwasher. Both bathrooms have granite benchtops and porcelain basins. The master bedroom at the eastern end of the house has a walk-in-robe and ensuite with shower niche, separate toilet and twin basin vanity room. At the western end, the two main bedrooms have built-ins and share a deck, while the fourth bedroom is loft style unique guest room or fun teenager retreat. The herringbone brick driveway edged with charcoal blocks leads to the carport, which has a sweeping attic space for your kayak or surf ski. Low maintenance hardiplank fascia and colorbond roofing are used in creative and elegant ways, 100% New Zealand wool carpets grace the bedrooms, and there is a good-sized internal laundry.
