A Grand Family Edwardian Designed to Entertain
A private and peaceful parkside sanctuary, this grand Edwardian creates an exceptional setting for family life. Rich in period character and wonderfully easy to live in, its generous proportions, glorious landscaped gardens and superb outdoor spaces create a home of rare appeal, while a prized position directly opposite Elsternwick Park places every convenience close at hand.
Beyond the wisteria-draped entrance, soaring ceilings, leadlight windows, hardwood floors and original fireplaces showcase the home's timeless beauty. A bay window frames a picturesque outlook from the formal lounge, complemented by the grand dining room, expansive family living and first floor rumpus offering spaces to gather or retreat when desired.
The beautifully designed garden is a destination in its own right. Lush yet remarkably easy care, it centres around a custom-crafted al fresco pavilion, where bluestone paving and established greenery create an idyllic backdrop for entertaining in every season. A solar-heated pool, outdoor shower and secure surrounds make outdoor living effortless, with ample space for children and pets to play safely. By night, external sensor lighting transforms the gardens into an enchanting extension of the home.
Inside, a spectacular marble kitchen combines style with superior functionality, featuring a waterfall island, integrated Miele and Liebherr appliances, custom cabinetry and a generous butler-style pantry. A glass splashback overlooks the pool, seamlessly connecting it to the outdoors and allowing parents to keep a watchful eye on the children, while matching marble features through the laundry/drying room and pool access powder room.
The accommodation is equally impressive, with a separate-entry custom-fitted study and two luxurious ground floor bedroom suites, each with walk-in robe and ensuite. The main opens to a north facing veranda surrounded by greenery, while upstairs offers an ideal children's zone with a generous rumpus/lounge, study area, two further robed bedrooms, spa bathroom and a substantial storage room.
Hydronic heating, ducted reverse cycle air conditioning, heated towel rails, automated irrigation and auto gated parking provide contemporary comfort, complementing a whisper-quiet double-brick home that has truly stood the test of time.
In an outstanding North Brighton position, 350 metres from where the Golden Mile meets Elwood Beach, it's close to Martin Street's cafes, shops and station, Elsternwick Primary, Star of the Sea, Brighton Grammar, Firbank, the New Street bus route and airport SkyBus, as well as the vibrant precincts of Brighton, Elwood and Elsternwick.
