Overview

Landmark Toorak Estate, First Time Offered in Nearly 50 Years

Magnificently positioned amid gloriously landscaped gardens, this distinguished residence combines relaxed family living with sumptuous entertaining on one of Toorak's grandest boulevards. Offered to the market for the first time in nearly 50 years, the English Tudor Revival home was designed in 1933 by renowned Melbourne architect Robert Bell Hamilton for Myer co-founder E.B. Myer. Occupying a substantial 1,874sqm (approx.) estate (with no heritage overlay), the sweeping circular driveway passes beneath a covered portico to a spectacular double-height entrance hall, where ornate plasterwork and a sweeping staircase introduce the enduring architectural elegance that defines this remarkable home. Expansive formal living and dining rooms feature majestic fireplaces and charming bay windows framing verdant garden views. At the rear, a relaxed living and dining domain overlooks the established gardens and indoor pool, flowing effortlessly into a well-appointed kitchen with granite benchtops and abundant cabinetry. The impressive proportions continue upstairs where five generous bedrooms include a tranquil main suite with a sitting area, walk-in robe and ensuite. A wood-panelled study with extensive built-in joinery and a studio above the double garage with toilet provide exceptional flexibility for growing families, working from home or creative pursuits, complemented by a floodlit tennis court. Two more powder rooms, a cellar, bar, laundry chute and built-in safe add further amenity. Impeccably maintained and full of character, this landmark home also presents an exceptional opportunity to renovate and create an architecturally designed extension befitting this remarkable estate. Alternatively, take advantage of the substantial landholding and the absence of a heritage overlay to create a spectacular contemporary masterpiece (STCA) befitting its prestigious surroundings. Enjoying a coveted position close to High Street and Glenferrie Road's renowned shopping and dining precincts, the home is also moments from Melbourne's leading schools, parklands and transport. A truly rare offering, it presents an extraordinary opportunity to enjoy an iconic family residence today while realising its exceptional future potential.
