C1900 Villa beautifully extended for family autonomy, pool swims, tennis matches & Pembroke proximity

Bluestone beauty on a grand scale finds its stride in Kensington Park, where this C1900 villa claims an expansive 1600sqm parcel (approx.) with a swimming pool and north-south tennis court to match its sense of occasion.

Set well back behind secure gates and a sweep of established greenery, the refreshed façade honours its origins, while a crazy paved path draws a line from front to rear, hinting at the depth and versatility that lies beyond.

Inside, soaring decorative ceilings crown a footprint that feels both substantial and inviting, rich with character yet shaped for modern family life.

Immediately, the master suite holds its own in both size and stature alongside the first of three bathrooms, while a second bedroom, home office and formal living offer flexibility to adapt when required.

Stepping down, the home opens to a light-filled living and dining domain, where wide panes of glass pull in the western sun and frame views across the grounds. At its centre, a stainless-steel designer JAG kitchen keeps pace with both serious cooks and entertaining occasions.

Just beyond, the pool and synthetic court take focus, ready for long afternoons that stretch into evening, all backdropped by open skies and a sense of space that’s become increasingly rare.

And upstairs, the family autonomy has only been amplified, where soft carpets line three further bedrooms, united by a third bathroom and balcony terrace positioned to look out across the pool, court and neighbouring oval.

Private and peaceful yet knocking on the doorstep of Pembroke and Norwood Parade, this is a home that carries its scale with confidence, gathering lifestyle, recreation and open space to elevate everyday living.
