Overview

‘Melvida’ 2504m2 (approx.) Landmark Estate

EXPRESSIONS OF INTEREST CLOSING TUESDAY 27TH OCTOBER AT 5PM (UNLESS SOLD PRIOR) The original homestead of Quandolan, this illustrious c1940 landmark estate of 2504m2 (approx.) serenely set along a picturesque cul-de-sac, was magnificently crafted by prominent commercial builder of the era E. A. Watts to personally reside with a focus on curated events and social gatherings. Constructed with absolute quality and meticulously presented within manicured grounds, ‘Melvida’ remains a grand home for exceptional modern living, surrounded by iconic Yarra parklands and esteemed schools. Flanking a motor court entry, the American Colonial architecture introduces a classical foyer, immediately evoking a sense of occasion and old-Hollywood glamour with its dramatic sweeping staircase. A series of captivating dining, music and living spaces are revealed with remarkable scale, streamed in natural light with windows framing leafy treetop vistas from the elevated vantage point. French doors seamlessly extend outdoors to a paved terrace adjoining the swimming pool, inviting alfresco occasions beneath a stunning wisteria, amidst the sprawling garden setting. Configured for entertaining, the west wing comprises the original cigar room/den and billiards room, replete with period charm. Upstairs hosts three luxuriously sized bedrooms serviced by the family bathroom, accompanied by the sumptuous primary suite, complete with his-and-hers fitted dressing rooms and an opulent ensuite. Further complements include a bespoke kitchen and meals area appointed with premium Miele appliances, timber-lined office, rumpus/gymnasium, ground-floor guest bedroom and bathroom. Proudly positioned in a blue-ribbon locale favoured by families for generations, this significant landholding also represents multi-unit redevelopment potential (STCA) with future capital appreciation prospects underpinned by access to amenities. Only a short walk to Ivanhoe East Village and Ivanhoe East Primary School, just moments to elite grammar schools, Yarra parklands, Chelsworth sporting grounds, Austin Hospital major medical precinct and key arterials.
