There are houses that are built to a specification, and then there are houses that are built to a vision. The Anchorage is firmly the latter. From the moment you step into the entrance hall, which runs to 57 feet and rises to a vaulted ceiling above marble floors and a sweeping oak staircase, it is clear that every decision here was made with intent. This is a home that knows exactly what it is. Arranged across three floors and just over 7,500 square feet, the layout is confident and considered. The ground floor is where the house makes its most dramatic statements. A cinema room with Sony 4K projection, a 10 foot silver screen and a star light ceiling sits alongside a games room that opens directly to the garden through sliding glass doors, an easy transition from film to friends to fresh air. The reception room beyond is calm by comparison, built around a gas ribbon fire and a Zuma audio system that carries sound through the house with the kind of quiet precision the rest of the interior demands. The kitchen is the social heart of it all. Designed around a substantial central island under a skylit ceiling, with a separate utility and second kitchen behind it, this is a space that works as hard as it looks good. Morning coffee at the bar stools or a long evening with the full island in use, the room handles both with equal ease. The indoor pool completes the ground floor picture and sits alongside a gym, sauna and changing room, with bi-folding doors that open directly to the garden. On a winter morning or a summer afternoon, it earns its place completely. Upstairs, the principal suite occupies its own considered corner of the first floor. A generous bedroom leads through to a dedicated dressing room and a bathroom of genuine ambition, a freestanding roll top bath, a large walk-in shower and the kind of detailing that makes the difference between a room that functions and one that you actually want to spend time in. There are three further bedrooms on this floor; two with en suites, and a family bathroom with steam room serves the remaining bedroom. The second floor adds two additional bedrooms and attic storage, quietly useful without interrupting the flow of the floors below. Outside, the garden is private and well established, with an Indian stone terrace, a wooden pergola and a dedicated BBQ area for the kind of summer evenings this house was made for. A detached garden office is currently set up as a music studio, with its own kitchen, air conditioning and space for three desks sits separately from the house, handling the working from home question without ever intruding on daily life. To the front, electric gates open to a sweeping driveway with generous parking and an integral garage with a porcelain tiled floor. The Anchorage is a home that rewards the buyer who knows precisely what they are looking for.
