Central to Melbourne's finest schools and framed by one of the area's most prestigious streets, this evocative Victorian weaves exceptional space, versatility, and turnkey luxury into the ever-adored Kew lifestyle.
Enthralling from the outset with its lush gardens, broad frontage, and iron-lacework veranda, the smart, secure, sophisticated, and altogether sumptuous residence ensures every day is a genuine joy. Featuring its own full-size dressing room and lavish ensuite with twin basins and a standalone soaker bath, a magnificent main bedroom is joined on the lower level by a guest room with a chic ensuite, while a stylish upper bathroom services bedrooms three and four.
With an upstairs retreat perfect for teenagers to claim as their own, a downstairs study/fifth bedroom proves ideal for the home professional, while at plan's rear, vast proportion, soaring ceilings, and light from all sides foster a feeling of space and airiness. Living and dining areas step seamlessly into a backyard where privacy and all-day sun heighten appeal beyond compare, brilliant for a quiet coffee listening to the birds, barbecue in the gas-connected alfresco, and dip in the pool/spa kept usable year-round by gas and solar heating. Elevating hospitality prowess, a gourmet kitchen features a comprehensive Miele appliance suite, accompanied by swathes of Calacatta marble, extensive cabinetry, a wine fridge, and butler's pantry.
Further highlights include ducted heating/refrigerated cooling, European Oak floors, 2pac cabinetry, an alarm, garden irrigation and lighting, external remote-controlled blinds, pool-serving and ground-floor powder rooms, profuse indoor and outdoor storage, an open gas fire, large laundry, oversized double garage (lane access), and elaborate details accentuating period charm.
Positioned to perfection, it's just a short, leafy stroll to local icons Arthur's Milkbar and Bar Alba, peaceful parks and playgrounds, Cotham Road shops, city-bound trams, and the vibrant retail, culinary, and afterhours scenes of famous Kew Junction and Glenferrie Road, while near leading private schools in Xavier, Ruyton, Trinity, MLC, Preshil, Carey, Genazzano, and Camberwell Grammar/Girls' Grammar.
