Peaceful and private beyond high-walled gardens, "Tavarnelle" is a magnificent Victorian home (c1890's) of extraordinary classic and contemporary beauty. Breathtaking original features eloquently express the grace and grandeur of the era and provide a superb aesthetic backdrop to a luxuriously large and beautifully styled home in which to live and entertain. The grand triple-arched hallway is an impressive prelude to the 4/5 bedroom/3 bathroom floorplan where an elegant lounge is palatial in scale and all bedrooms are king-sized (2/ensuites). Architect designed, the striking kitchen and glass-walled living areas open out with eye-catching effect to an expansive entertainer's deck amidst glorious gardens. An outstanding opportunity in the prized Grace Park Estate environs, this forever family home is surrounded by Melbourne's finest schools, boutique shopping, the transport and gourmet hub of Glenferrie Rd plus Lido Cinemas and Hawthorn Aquatic Centre. Going above and beyond in comfort and style, this home also flaunts an executive study/5th bedroom, 5 OFPs (Cheminees Philippe in the living area), designer feature lighting, hydronic heating, huge laundry, double carport and storage shed.
