A home of genuine substance and significance, this turn-of-the-century landmark (c1900) in the ever-exclusive Logan Estate pairs the quality and craftsmanship of a first-class revamp with the enduring character of Federation-era roots.
Elevated from the street and hidden privately among lush, manicured gardens, the home's stance remains as alluring today as it was when built well over a century ago, with tuckpointed brickwork, a tessellated-tile porch, and leadlight windows making an impression that's sure to last. A broad entrance foyer sees Versailles parquetry, a soaring, ornate ceiling, and grand arches add to the home's inherent stature, with a superb, single-level interior equally suited to a family as it is downsizers or professionals.
Accommodation is both extensive and expansive, with three considerable bedrooms and a versatile fourth bedroom/study, serviced by profuse storage and two exquisite bathrooms. Glancing at greenery and highlighting the home's outstanding proportions, a vast front sitting room complements the plan's rear section tailor-made for the entertainer, with family and meals zones placed either side of a gourmet kitchen featuring stone surfaces, a 900mm ILVE cooker, abundant cabinetry, and butler's pantry with a Bosch dishwasher and extra basin. A conservatory-style dining room soaks in delightful passive rays, spilling seamlessly into an open-air deck and completely private yard perfect for a family barbecue under blue skies.
With a double garage and electric-gated parking for three cars, other highlights of the home include Baltic pine floorboards, substantial attic space, split-system heating/cooling, ducted heating, a large cellar for storing wine, security system, full-size laundry, and period details headlined by intricate rosettes, cornices, skirts, and architraves.
In the most adored of Melbourne enclaves with Maling Road's world-class coffee, celebrated cuisine, and boutique shopping, acres of pristine parkland, the Anniversary Trail, and Canterbury Station all just steps away, it's mere moments to Camberwell High and Canterbury Girls' Secondary (both zoned), prestigious private schools in Strathcona, Siena, Camberwell Grammar, and Camberwell Girls' Grammar, the verve of Camberwell Junction, and both Eastern and Monash Freeways for quick CBD and peninsula access.
