Inspired by Edwardian-era design to leave a memorable impression on its prestigious street, this expansive abode employs abundant space, a cultured palette, and veteran craftsmanship to offer the absolute height of family luxe.
Past its alluring façade and thriving gardens, an ultra-wide entrance hall sees herringbone parquetry and ornate ceilings establish a sense of grandeur and elegance continued throughout, with oversized lounge, office, and sitting rooms introduced en route to a spectacular main section.
Granite benches, timber cabinetry, a walk-in pantry, integrated dishwasher, and feature 900mm Smeg cooker all enhance a wrap-around kitchen, while entwined family and dining zones spill into a covered terrace perfect for evening drinks taking in sweeping sights.
Kept separate from main spaces, top-floor accommodation is headlined by a magnificent master with a walk-in robe and ensuite, accompanied by four extra, robe-lined bedrooms, leafy views to wake up to, and a smart central bathroom with a clawfoot bath and marble-top vanity.
A lower-floor rumpus room with a fitted bar steps into an alfresco setting for seamless indoor-outdoor hospitality, with an extensively remodelled, levelled backyard brilliant for kids to run around in.
Accessed via its own security gate, grassland at rear, the local park, and Maribyrnong River Trail combine to be the best backyard extension a family could ever ask for, while the home's other highlights include three-phase power, camera/alarm security, hardwood floors, several storerooms, bay windows, a lower-floor bathroom, middle-level powder room, full-size laundry, double garage, ample roof space for a lofted studio, gas and electric fireplaces, hydronic heating, and commercial-grade, five-unit ducted/refrigerated heating and cooling.
Steps from St Martin de Porres Primary, Avondale Primary (zoned), and Military Road's Coles, restaurants, cafés, and famous bakery Impasto Forno Antico, it's no more than moments to elite private schools in PEGS, St Bernard's, and Ave Maria, Milleara and Highpoint shops, freeways for easy commuting, and the 57 Tram bound for Moonee Ponds and the city centre.
