Nestled among the majestic oak trees of one of Brighton's most serene and sought-after local streets, this spectacular five-bedroom, double-fronted Victorian home has been beautifully reimagined by Pleysier Perkins Architects and offers an inspired brand of Bayside luxury.

Tasked with designing a versatile family sanctuary that remains sympathetic to its Victorian roots, Pleysier Perkins' rework makes optimal use of the northern orientation, enabling swathes of natural light to bathe the entire home. The welcoming entrance hall ushers you into a series of impressive rooms, each with their own fireplace and 12-foot ceilings, including a sizeable home office and guest bedroom, and a vast central lounge featuring a large, centrepiece recessed window that frames a lush internal courtyard. Creating room for vertical double-glazed windows spanning both storeys, three clever voids grace a magnificent open-plan kitchen and family dining area. This beautiful space with its chic interior palette blends with the light-oak floors in affording a one-of-a-kind ambiance.

The spacious kitchen features two Miele ovens and induction cook-top, Liebherr appliances, a luxurious marble splashback, plus a wide island bench with Zip Tap and includes floor-to-ceiling designer cabinetry that cleverly conceals a fully appointed Butler's Pantry, study nook with marble desk and integrated fridge/freezer. The sun-drenched main living room features a gas log fire creating the perfect place for family evenings come wintertime. Sliding floor-to-ceiling glass doors help the living spaces to flow into a verdant, north-facing backyard enriched by a fully tiled, self-cleaning solar-heated pool, outdoor shower and built-in gas barbecue that serves an alfresco dining area, with remote-controlled Louvretec shade louvres and a stylish outdoor fireplace, perfect for outdoor entertaining.

The main bedroom looks out at a tranquil internal garden and adjoins both a walk-in-robe and a lavish ensuite with under-floor heating, a double-sink marble vanity top, and standalone soaker bath. Upstairs, there are three expansive bedrooms featuring Velux skylights and built-in robes, plus another double-sink bathroom and separate toilet.

This luxurious residence caters to the growing family with ample storage space, large laundry including a dedicated drying cupboard, an additional third bathroom and multiple living zones. Premium features include European lighting, a Bose surround-sound system, ducted cooling, and hydronic heating, Back2Base security, CCTV, and undercover car spaces. 8 Oak Grove is just a short walk to North Brighton Station and superbly situated between the thriving bars, boutiques, restaurants, and cafs of Martin and Bay Streets, close to sought-after private schools including Brighton Grammar and Firbank Grammar and a quick stroll to pristine parks and trails, and the picturesque Golden Mile foreshore.
