FULLY RENOVATED, LUXURY WOOLSTORE APARTMENT
One of a kind and meticulously renovated from top-to-toe to showcase the very best of the popular maximalist interior design style, this Woolstore apartment in the historic Winchcome Carson building is absolute luxury living in the heart of Teneriffe. Every detail has been thoughtfully planned to give a feeling of opulence as well as functionality and liveability. The moody colour palette is an absolute delight to the senses when stepping in from the hustle and bustle of the street into a calm, warm and grand premises.
From the famous, cavernous communal foyer areas, rich with history, you are welcomed into this stunning home through a dedicated entry hallway featuring checkerboard Italian floor tiles, and the first of three colourways of La Palma wallpaper to be found in delightfully playful places throughout the property. Antique Entry doors which were salvaged from a hotel in New Zealand are the transition point from the entryway into the living areas, which feature solid timber chevron flooring made from imported French Oak.
A casual lounge area and dedicated study is surrounded by a mix of open bookshelves and custom cabinetry to give options for storing items out of sight, or on display. Through this open plan area, the second living room is large enough for all the family to gather round, and the dining area has direct access to the balcony through the floor to ceiling wooden doors, rescued from the Wynnum Fire Station and updated with new safety glass.
The kitchen has everything you could wish for including more storage than in most large houses with custom cabinetry from floor to ceiling. Waterfall benchtops are cut from a rare Alaska white granite with garnet fleck and tied together through the clever use of the original New Farm Antique Centre (Commercial Rd) pantry sign. Added into the design is a built-in breakfast nook, tea and coffee station and the inbuilt bar cabinet. Quality Bosch and Electrolux Double Oven and Semi-Integrated Dishwasher and Insinkerator make this feel like a kitchen customised for even the most avid cook or entertainer.
Walk past an elegant powder room and bespoke laundry area with vintage laundrette doors, custom Concrete Nation sink and pink Caesarstone benchtops before arriving at a glamourous marble and Italian tile bathroom reminiscent of an upscale European spa. There are two large bedrooms in this section adorned with wallpaper imported from England as well as Rosenstengal Antique Wardrobes rounding out this eclectic style which is pulled together by the owner’s clear vision and execution of the design.
The Master Suite feels cosy while being generously sized, and leads to a substantial walk-through robe with custom cabinetry for displaying even the most avid fashionista’s collection. The ensuite is a masterful design with the chevron pattern continued in the mossy green finger mosaic tiles, black marble floors, custom vanity and bespoke concrete sink.
