Risen from the foundational principles of Mid-Century Modern architecture, this home is a tranquil family sanctuary amid a secret-garden setting. With revered architects Graeme Gunn, Kevin Borland, and Greg Burgess all contributing to its design through the years, the home invokes calm and serenity, orchestrating sunlight, space, and garden vistas in perfect harmony.
Contrasting bagged brick walls and hardwood features, the interior retains its mid-century ambience. Floor-to-ceiling windows are skilfully positioned to capture a shower of natural light and to maximise the interaction between indoors and outdoors, while passively maintaining an even temperature through the seasons.
Interior spaces are designed to place family and friends at the heart of the home, gathering guests in a vast lounge and dining room for vibrant entertaining. By day, a wall of glazing provides a picturesque backdrop, while by night, guests gather beside an open fireplace. At the back of the home, a spacious family room nurtures day-to-day living, capturing a stream of sunlight through towering clerestory windows.
The kitchen is positioned for easy catering beside a casual dining area, preparing meals with a full suite of appliances and plenty of custom timber cabinetry. Stretching outdoors, the enchanting gardens are a soothing setting to relax and reflect by the verge of a tranquil pond, while eagerly hosting celebrations under the northern sun.
A large office is positioned within the gardens, providing multi-purpose versatility as a library, gymnasium or kids' playroom. The accommodation places parents on the ground floor, pampered with a peaceful retreat and built-in robes. Upstairs, two former bedrooms have been consolidated to create a huge bedroom, studio, or living space, and can easily be reinstated as two rooms, while the third robed bedroom has a rooftop terrace for a dress-circle view of the city's skyscrapers.
Completed with two bathrooms including an ensuite to the main, plus a double carport behind motorised gates, the home is a true oasis that celebrates light, elegance, comfort, and style.
Situated within Kew's esteemed private school belt, the home assures future success, within walking distance to trams bound for the CBD, Camberwell Station, and the shopping and entertainment at Camberwell Junction, while footsteps from the scenic Anniversary Trail, and minutes from the Eastern freeway for a quick CBD commute.
