Widely regarded as one of Hawthorn's most distinguished treelined boulevards just moments to leading private schools, Hawthorn Grove occupies an elite position in Grace Park environs defined by architectural pedigree, generational ownership and enduring blue-chip prestige. Setting a new precedent in bespoke contemporary design, this expansive family domain from Herbert & Howes upends convention with an unwavering commitment to luxury, entertainment and landmark distinction.
Set on a deep north-facing rear allotment that draws in natural light throughout the day, a beautifully-composed Krause brick façade creates an extraordinary first impression both timeless and patently modern ushering in new era of Hawthorn family excellence over three remarkable levels connected by a large-format lift. Carefully curated zones dedicated to sophisticated living, grand-scale entertaining and family wellness are all executed with exceptional craftsmanship and clarity of vision.
A dramatic arrival where a sculptural circular staircase rises as a striking architectural centrepiece and a grand fire-side lounge unfolds beneath a soaring six-metre ceiling creates an immediate sense of occasion, preceding a refined executive study, a guest bedroom suite and a stylish powder room.
Accompanied by a superb retreat, upstairs accommodation of four deluxe ensuite bedrooms is highlighted by a magnificent main suite where a wall of glazing captures northerly light before a large customised walk-in robe and a beautiful designer ensuite with a freestanding stone bath, fluted-glass shower and stone-finished double vanity.
A private leisure sanctuary of exceptional scale, the entire lower level is devoted to indulgence, wellbeing and recreation. A gold-class calibre cinema with full surround-sound and integrated marble bar adjoining a 1200-bottle wine cellar creates an extraordinary entertaining experience, while a fully-equipped gym and steam sauna deliver a true spa-quality retreat. Further is a mudroom, workshop, extensive storage and secure remote-control five-car garaging with EV charging points.
Daily life gathers in an impeccably-resolved rear family zone bathing in northerly light, with dedicated dining and living areas flowing to a statement corsite stone kitchen designed for serious culinary performance boasting twin Miele ovens, induction cooktop, integrated Liebherr fridge/freezer, dual dishwashers, a Zip HydroTap and a butler's pantry with an inbuilt dual-temperature Liebherr wine fridge. There's also a nearby laundry with a chute and drying cupboards.
Beyond full-height glazing that blurs the lines between indoors and out, sliding doors reveal a north-oriented rear oasis structured for resort-style celebration and everyday ease with a fully-equipped outdoor kitchen integrating BBQ facilities, a covered pavilion, pool-house with a bathroom, stone daybeds, extensive limestone paving and a 15mx5m swimming pool and spa, all set within immaculately landscaped garden with irrigation, illumination and high-fence privacy.
Additional appointments include hydronic slab heating to the ground floor, underfloor heating and heated towel rails to bathrooms, comprehensive zoned ducted heating and refrigerated cooling, 18kW solar electricity, 10kW BYD modular battery system, advanced home automation, CCTV surveillance, keyless entry, video intercom, premium glazing, bespoke joinery throughout and extensive integrated storage solutions.
A once in a generation opportunity to secure a new architect-designed residence on the highly-coveted north side of Hawthorn Grove, this absolutely state-of-the-art family property spanning 943 sqms approx. amid many of Melbourne's most prestigious heritage estates offers outstanding proximity to a range of excellent schools (Xavier, MLC, Carey, Ruyton and Trinity), Grace Park, Kew Junction and Glenferrie Road's high-end shopping, cafes, restaurants, trams and train station.
