Overview

A Rare, Grand Victorian Icon on South Yarra Hill

Freestanding | Approx. 760sqm A truly rare opportunity to acquire a grand freestanding Victorian residence in one of South Yarra Hill's most exclusive and tightly held pockets, being sold for the first time in nearly 40 years. Set among some of Melbourne's most prestigious homes, this landmark c.1850 residence occupies approximately 760sqm in an exceptional position at the heart of the Village. The Royal Botanic Gardens, Toorak Road's renowned shops, restaurants and cafés, and the MCG are all within easy walking distance, placing an extraordinary breadth of lifestyle, recreation and cultural amenity at your doorstep. The residence is distinguished by its impressive scale, soaring ceilings, elaborate cornicing, fireplaces and beautifully proportioned rooms. A refined library and sitting room lead through to generous living and entertaining spaces, while abundant natural light creates a warm and inviting atmosphere throughout. At the rear, expansive living spaces open to a deep terrace and richly planted gardens, providing a private and tranquil setting for relaxed family living and entertaining in the very heart of South Yarra. Thoughtfully renovated by the late Alan Powell, the residence was also notably featured in Home Beautiful in 1952, recognising its enduring architectural appeal. Surrounded by some of Melbourne's most highly regarded schools, including Melbourne Girls Grammar, Christ Church Grammar, Melbourne Grammar, Melbourne High School and Wesley College, the property offers an enviable combination of grand proportions, privacy and an exceptional inner-city lifestyle. Opportunities to acquire a substantial freestanding residence of this calibre, in such an exclusive position on South Yarra Hill, are exceptionally rare particularly after almost four decades in the same ownership. A truly distinguished South Yarra Hill offering, combining grand historic character, exceptional land and one of Melbourne's most coveted lifestyle locations. Register for Private Auction.
