“Talana”, A Modern Family Masterpiece
Tucked into one of Camberwell's most desirable family pockets, “Talana” is a home that carries its Edwardian heritage with pride whilst delivering everything a modern family could ask of it.
Behind a beautifully preserved period frontage, original features have been lovingly restored and reimagined, setting the tone for a home where character and comfort live side by side. At the rear, a recent and comprehensive renovation and extension has transformed the home into a bright, open and effortlessly functional living environment, beautifully modern in its finish and designed for the way families truly live.
At its heart sits a stunning new kitchen, complete with breakfast bar and a dedicated space to sit and prepare, whilst a butler's pantry and laundry positioned just off the kitchen add the kind of everyday practicality that families genuinely value. The open kitchen and dining flows seamlessly into the living room, all whilst overlooking the stunning gardens framed by amazing steel framed glass windows, a space that feels as effortless for quiet family evenings as it does for entertaining friends in style.
A perfect north orientation floods the rear of the home with natural light from morning to evening, whilst level access flows out to a generous entertainer's deck, sheltered beneath a pergola and framed by established gardens and several significant trees that have stood for generations.
Four incredibly spacious bedrooms and 2 bathrooms are complemented by multiple distinct living zones, offering genuine flexibility and great separation for a growing or established family. Completely freestanding, the home enjoys a real sense of space and privacy on all sides, whilst thoughtful modern additions including solar power, hydronic heating, reverse cycle heating and air conditioning, double glazing and water harvesting bring lasting comfort and efficiency without ever compromising the home's period soul. Space to park 3 cars plus a garage for storage completes the picture.
All set on a substantial 975 square metres in one of Melbourne's most highly sought after family precincts, “Talana” sits moments from some of the state's most renowned schools, alongside boutique shopping and the vibrant heart of Camberwell, that rare offering where timeless character and contemporary living come together in complete harmony.
