Overview

A hidden sanctuary with history, heart and soul

Originally built as a jewellery factory in the 1920s, this remarkable four bedroom, two study, three bathroom residence blends industrial character with contemporary innovation across two spacious levels. Behind its period factory façade is an urban sanctuary of thoughtfully designed spaces that integrate versatility, indoor outdoor flair and a salute to today's family way of life with spaces to live, work and entertain. A magical oasis of earthy materials softened with lush greenery, this architectural treasure showcases polished hardwood floors, soaring ceilings and the original factory framework to create a warm, inviting and open atmosphere. An expansive living and dining area opens via bifold doors to a tranquil private garden with rustic original steel beams and an ancient canopy of wisteria letting in winter sun and summer shade, setting the scene for formal dinners and relaxed summer gatherings. The kitchen makes a statement with timber and stainless steel benchtops, European appliances and a sunny breakfast nook. Two dedicated studies offer work-from-home flexibility, one with the original jewellery safe repurposed as a wine cellar. A billiard room and bar, laundry and bathroom complete the lower level. Pressed metal ceilings and leadlight windows upstairs are a hallmark of the home's heritage. The main bedroom wing is impressive with its ensuite, walk-in robe, and a flexible additional room ideal as a yoga/gym retreat or hobby room. A second living area with a historic fire hydrant and a western sunroom/bedroom with city views offer space and serenity. Two additional bedrooms with robes, one with fireplace and a family bathroom complete the upper level. Downstairs stays naturally cool in summer with ceiling fans and zoned heating and cooling throughout. This awe inspiring treasure has fabulous storage including an accessible roof space previously used as an art studio, automated irrigation, ambient garden lighting, an oversized double auto garage with workshop area and EV charger using the old factory's three phase power and two street parking permits. Steps from the 48 and 75 trams taking you into the city and MCG, enjoy scenic walks along the Yarra Trail and through lush parks. Minutes away from restaurants, shops, cinemas and independent schools located along Church Street, Bridge Road, Glenferrie Road and Kew High Street.
