A striking expression of contemporary architecture, 8 Hunter Street pairs sculptural design with exceptional materials and carefully considered comfort. Set in a sought-after Kew neighbourhood close to parkland, cafés and leading schools, this is a home where every finish contributes to a distinctive sense of quality.
The attention to detail is apparent from the outset. A rendered brick exterior introduces the home’s clean architectural lines, while soaring three metre ceilings on the ground floor establish a wonderful sense of space. Upstairs, 2.7 metre ceilings continue the generous proportions. At the heart of the design, a curved spiral staircase with an integrated handrail is both a practical connection between levels and a captivating focal point.
Inside, Italian Calacatta marble brings natural elegance to a palette enriched by Brazilian tiles in the living area and bathrooms. A microcement finish adds texture and warmth, while custom joinery by Rara gives the interiors a beautifully resolved feel. Shadowline skirting and door jambs reinforce the crisp, seamless detailing, and pure wool carpet offers a soft counterpoint to the home’s more sculptural surfaces.
The bathrooms carry through the same commitment to design and craftsmanship. Italian Catalano basins and toilets sit alongside frameless shower screens and thoughtfully selected finishes. In the ground floor powder room, Italian tiles create another distinctive moment, reflecting the care given to spaces both large and small.
Everyday comfort has been integrated throughout the home. Underfloor heating and air conditioning serve the ground floor, while acoustic and thermal insulation help create a calm interior across both levels. Smart lighting and trimless LED downlights offer a discreet, contemporary lighting scheme, complemented by the convenience of motorised curtains. Solid internal construction and LVL framing throughout add substance behind the finishes, while the garage is completed with a polished concrete floor.
Beyond the home, the location brings together the best of Kew’s family lifestyle. Victoria Park offers a nearby place to walk, play and unwind; Adeney Milk Bar is close by for a morning coffee; and Kew Junction provides a lively selection of shops, cafés and everyday conveniences. The address is zoned for Kew East Primary School and Kew High School, with MLC, Genazzano, Xavier College, Camberwell Grammar School and other respected independent schools within easy reach.
Architecturally memorable and thoughtfully built, 8 Hunter Street offers a rare combination of visual impact, enduring materials and everyday ease in an outstanding Kew setting.
