Rich history, cultured modernity
Reinvented by heritage specialists Drake Developments to be a lifestyle prospect in a league of its own, the former Gordon Masonic Hall brings historic weight and genuine substance into the modern day. Seven total residences sprawl over the grounds of the 1887-built icon, with this one-of-a-kind abode set directly behind the hall's elaborate façade to stand as a home like no other.
With character preserved as a nod to the building's significance, interiors weave classic into contemporary over two sumptuous storeys. Set to either side of a grand hallway, main and guest bedrooms are accompanied by extensive cabinetry and chic ensuites, complemented by a second-storey bedroom and bathroom gifting flexibility to the plan. Filled by a feature chandelier and staircase spiralling to a mezzanine study, a soaring upstairs ceiling fosters scale more common in marquee Stonnington estates, while a wealth of acoustic glazing minimises sound, attracts all-day rays, and frames sweeping outlooks.
A marble-top kitchen and bar sit between a considerable living/dining area and terrace brilliant for hospitality, while other highlights include Smeg and Fisher & Paykel appliances, engineered oak floors, plush carpets, comprehensive heating/cooling, a full-size laundry, and oversized garage. Central to countless conveniences, it's mere footsteps to city trains and trams, esteemed schools, and the cuisine, shopping, and nightlife of famous Mt Alexander Road, Union Road, and Puckle Street.
