Overview

'Willowbrook': a magnificent c1892 Victorian family home on Hotham Hill

Standing proudly opposite Pleasance Gardens Park in arguably Hotham Hill's finest residential pocket, 'Willowbrook' is a magnificent c1892 Victorian home promising an enduring family lifestyle for a new generation. A showcase of opulent heritage splendour, the vastly proportioned original residence is complemented by refined updates & an extension over the years, stunning established gardens and ROW access. Offered for the first time in 32 years, it presents a rare opportunity to secure a slice of history move in and enjoy with further scope to personalise should you desire. Set within a beautiful historic streetscape behind cast iron gates, its handsome book-style façade is graced with ornate plasterwork, a lattice checkerboard verandah and gabled entrance, which reveals a wide triple-arch hallway beneath lofty decorative ceilings. Polished floorboards flow into a huge formal lounge room (or optional 5th bedroom) with a north-facing bay window enjoying parkland outlooks along with an exquisite marble fireplace, and four equally large bedrooms (3 x OFP's) including one with its own separate entrance (ideal for a home office), all serviced by a pristine central granite bathroom with clawfoot bath and shower. At the rear of the home, the enormous extension is drenched in natural light via a conservatory-style ceiling and a wall of windows affording gorgeous green garden views as the seasons change. At its heart is an elevated timber entertainer's kitchen complete with quality stainless steel fixtures and extensive cabinetry. Set by an open fireplace, the impressive sized family and dining area spills onto a secluded brick paved rear yard framed by towering vine-covered walls and lush established gardens a peaceful and private sanctuary to entertain or simply relax. Here, Donovan's Lane provides ROW access for potential off-street parking. Additionally, there is a separate laundry, air-conditioning/heating to all bedrooms, as well as split-system air-conditioning at the rear of the property. The perfect balance of inner-city convenience and serenity, this extraordinary home is placed in a community-minded neighbourhood within walking distance of Royal Park, Errol Street shops and cafes, CBD trams, the new Arden Station, Melbourne University, the hospital precinct and University High School (zoned).
