Places we love: A reimagined Californian Bungalow by Watts Studio

Nestled in the sought-after suburb of Brighton, 2 Missouri Avenue stands as a testament to timeless elegance and refined living. This meticulously designed home offers unparalleled luxury finishes and an envied lifestyle experience. Balancing the old and the new, the team at Watts Studio holistic approach, marries this existing Californian Bungalow family home with it's modern double-storey extension.

Setting the tone with an open entryway, you’re immediately impressed by a wide hallway, accented by polished Venetian plaster and beautiful chevron parquetry Oak floors. Just off the entry, a bright and inviting modern-day wine cellar, features fluted glass doors and a stunning green Verde Italian marble fireplace and ceramic wall sconces by Robert Gordon.

Walking deeper into the home, you're immediately awed by the sheer expanse of the spectacular open great room. The attention to detail that has gone into every aspect of the home's design includes a gas log fireplace featuring tactile, Japanese hand cut tiles. High ceilings and an abundance of natural light create an airy and inviting atmosphere, while the use of premium materials and finishes exudes quality and craftsmanship. The open-plan layout seamlessly integrates the living, dining, and kitchen spaces, allowing for effortless flow and connectivity.

The lavish kitchen is anchored by an almost 4m travertine island, matching stone wall and double Qasair rangehoods. Take your culinary skills to new delights with a full suite of Miele appliances, butler’s pantry and seamless integrated fridge and freezer.

Rising up the statement helical staircase reveals a fabulous retreat upon landing. For those seeking moments of tranquility and relaxation, the home offers a variety of spaces to unwind. The primary bedroom is a sanctuary of luxury, featuring a beautiful ensuite with underfloor heating and walk-in wardrobe. Additional bedrooms provide comfort and privacy for family members or guests.

Beyond the interiors, the outdoor spaces are equally impressive, as double glazed bifold doors offer a seamless transition. The sumptuous oasis by Plume Studios, provides the perfect setting for family dining and larger entertaining, complete with an all-season alfresco and sparkling tiled swimming pool and spa.
