Superbly positioned in one of Hawthorn East's most tightly-held pockets, this expansive five-bedroom residence occupies a generous 1,065 sqm (approx.) allotment and offers a rare family sanctuary of scale, serenity and distinction.
Lovingly built and maintained by the same family for nearly 43 years, the home presents a rare opportunity to secure a substantial residence in a prestigious, tree-lined street, within close proximity to esteemed schools including Camberwell Girls Grammar, Scotch College, Bialik College, Auburn South Primary and Auburn High School.
Originally designed by renowned architect Kurt Popper and since renovated, this light-filled home unfolds over four thoughtfully planned levels. A series of formal and informal living and dining zones provide abundant space for family living, entertaining and quiet retreat.
At the rear, the main living areas open out to a wide, wraparound alfresco terrace, perfectly positioned to capture elevated valley views. A striking raked glass ceiling enhances the informal living space, flooding it with natural light and architectural drama.
Keen chefs will love the well-appointed kitchen, which boasts an oversized granite island and benchtops, premium Smeg appliances, extensive cabinetry and a large pantry with pull-out shelving for added convenience.
Upstairs, four generously proportioned bedrooms include a serene master suite with a walk-in robe and a pristine ensuite featuring a double vanity and heated towel rail.
The ground floor offers exceptional versatility, incorporating a fifth bedroom, spacious rumpus room, a dedicated study with integrated desk and cabinetry, a gym, sauna and an additional living area that opens via bi-fold doors to a sun-drenched courtyard and swimming pool.
Additional appointments include a family bathroom, powder room, laundry, heating and cooling, ducted vacuum and a double garage with a separate storage room.
Comfortable and immediately liveable as is, the property also invites scope for future enhancement, a luxury renovation or the development of a contemporary new residence or dual-occupancy project (STCA).
Commanding a premier lifestyle location, this exceptional home is moments from the beloved Anderson Park, city-bound trams, South Camberwell cafés, Tooronga Village shopping, as well as being close to Camberwell Junction, Tooronga Station and the Monash Freeway for seamless CBD and peninsula access.
