Currently under construction and offered for sale now, a remarkable new architectural residence is being realised behind the distinguished heritage façade of Dickens Court, one of Elwood's enduring Art Deco landmarks.
Thoughtfully reimagined by Liefting Merlo Homes in collaboration with CK Studio, this boutique one-off prestige home respectfully carries the legacy of its historic streetscape into a home designed for contemporary family living. Rather than recreating the past, the architecture draws inspiration from it, bringing together heritage, craftsmanship and timeless design in a way that feels both enduring and unmistakably modern.
Offering five generous bedrooms, various living zones, a versatile multi-purpose room and a studio with ensuite above the double garage, this single residence has been thoughtfully designed to accommodate modern family living with remarkable flexibility. Expansive open-plan living flows effortlessly to landscaped gardens and a private pool, while soaring ceilings, dramatic arched glazing, a feature fireplace and an abundance of natural light create interiors of exceptional scale, warmth and atmosphere.
At the heart of the home, a beautifully appointed kitchen featuring premium appliances and richly veined natural stone by Artedomus anchors the living spaces. Every material has been selected for its ability to age gracefully, from stunning natural stone to warm timber joinery, bronze detailing and softly textured finishes, creating a home that feels as enduring as the landmark that inspired it. Features include 9.5KW solar, 2 wine fridges, underfloor heating throughout all tiled areas, bespoke detailing and carefully considered proportions reflect a commitment to craftsmanship that extends to every corner of the residence.
The private primary suite offers a peaceful retreat, complete with its own balcony, walk-in robe and luxurious ensuite, while every space has been designed with longevity, comfort and architectural integrity in mind.
Discreetly integrating smart-home technology for everyday ease, the home offers comprehensive security and intercom systems, motorised double garage and zoned heating/cooling throughout. Double-glazed windows ensure comfort and quietude, while additional features include linen sheer curtains, motorised blinds, video intercom and pin-pad entry.
The home boasts a premier beachside position with St Kilda Botanical Garden and transport options within easy walking distance along with St Kilda marina, foreshore and many restaurants including the popular Dickens St Grocer within mere metres of your front doorstep.
This exclusive single-residence opportunity is now available to purchase off-the-plan, with anticipated completion in Q2 2027.
