“Englefield” c1892 is a superb example of a late Victorian-era landmark residence, retaining significant character of the era. An iconic tuck-pointed brick façade and ornamental parapet precedes an interior of timeless proportions and period integrity with a tessellated tile iron lacework veranda, Baltic Pine floors throughout and an arched hallway, soaring ceilings with roses, decorative cornices and coloured leadlight glass.
This noteworthy residence is superbly positioned in one of Toorak's most prized streets, offering an exceptional lifestyle with 'walk to' access to both Toorak and Hawksburn villages. Public transport, recreational facilities, off-leash dog parks and a selection of Melbourne's finest schools are all conveniently close by.
The floorplan features a formal sitting room/bedroom with paired arched windows and two further north facing bedrooms, both of generous scale. An open-plan family domain is highlighted by a light filled spacious ambience and offers access to a private and leafy garden haven perfect for relaxation and entertaining. Concept plans have been drawn to enable a carefully considered refurbishment and extension (STCA), future-proofing this glorious residence well into its second century.
Other features include an alarm, marble fireplaces, gas heating, a large remote door double carport (upgradable to three cars) via broad rear lane access. Sited within the General Residential Zone schedule 1 planning scheme with NO heritage overlay and the February 2026 Draft Activity Centre Inner Catchment status allows for significant four-story redevelopment (STCA).
Available for private inspection.
