Five years young, built by Liefting Merlo, on a central street where coffee, village, tram, train and beach are all within walking distance.
Freestanding contemporary homes of this calibre seldom come up in Elwood, and fewer still offer this location. Built to the highest standard, this four-bedroom-plus-study, three-bathroom residence has no shared walls, laneway access to a generous double garage, and a design shaped around north and westerly light.
Elwood living, without the commute compromise:
Elwood is loved for its village feel and bayside lifestyle, but it has long had a reputation for being hard to get in and out of. Not here. The No. 67 tram to the city is a five-minute walk, and Elsternwick Station is just 13 minutes on foot. Your morning coffee at Kremma is around the corner, Ormond Road village is a ten-minute stroll, and Elwood Beach is an easy walk or a quick ride away. You get everything people love about Elwood, with transport on your doorstep.
Light, Space, and a home built to be lived in:
Three-metre ceilings on both levels create a sense of volume and calm throughout. The ground floor is finished in polished concrete over a hydronic heated slab, so it is warm underfoot all winter and easy to keep clean. At its heart, an expansive open-plan kitchen, dining and living zone looks out over a private garden and heated lap pool. The kitchen enjoys Korian benchtops, a full Miele appliance suite, Billi Tap, and a combined butler's pantry and laundry with direct outdoor access.
Flexibility for every stage of life:
A second living zone downstairs, with built-in robes and its own private deck, adapts to however you live. It works as a home gym, a wellness retreat, a teenager's domain or a fourth bedroom. A full downstairs bathroom serves as a powder room for guests and makes ground-floor accommodation for downsizers a real option.
An upstairs retreat:
The north-facing master suite has a balcony with leafy outlooks and a generous walk-in robe with a dedicated dressing and make-up area. A barn-style door opens to an exceptional ensuite with dual vanities, an oversized walk-in shower, a freestanding bath, heated floors, extensive storage and twin Velux skylights.
Two further bedrooms, one with its own balcony, are served by a central bathroom with a standalone bath and underfloor heating. A generous built-in study area off the landing gives you a quiet place to work from home.
Private outdoor living, all year round:
Outside is totally secluded, and there are no apartment blocks next door. A low-maintenance garden suits kids and dogs, and a large alfresco area has two awnings for year-round entertaining. The heated lap pool runs along the side of the home, so it serves as a striking visual feature as well as a place for morning laps.
Clever use of every metre
The laneway allows an extra-large double garage with direct internal access and plenty of storage, which is highly sought, but rarely found in Elwood.
Additional features include:
- Zoned heating and cooling, upstairs and downstairs
- Hydronic underfloor heating to the entire ground floor
- Miele appliance suite
- Solar panels (3.5kw system)

Who it suits:
This home suits professionals who want quality and an easy run to the city with the beach close by, families who need room to grow, and downsizers who refuse to compromise.
Inspection is essential.
