Enhanced by superb views of the city skyline and prominently located on the corner of Younger Court, this substantial two-storey solid brick family residence offers streamlined Moderne styling, generous accommodation, superb craftsmanship and an array of period features. This impressive home is situated in the Clutha Estate precinct, which is renowned for its art deco homes of historical significance on the edge of the beautiful Studley Park, one of Melbourne's finest residential areas.
The light-filled interior has been significantly updated by the current owners and showcases appealing Art Deco attributes including polished timber floors, high ceilings, etched glass and large picture and semi-circular bay windows. Introduced by a secure wrought iron porch, the home is elevated by a double level entrance hall with a dome ceiling over the staircase and stunning north facing arched window. The interior comprises a fourth bedroom or informal living room, large sitting room and adjoining dining room, all with soaring ceilings and lovely garden vistas, a stylishly appointed north-facing stone, Smeg and Miele equipped kitchen/meals, a bathroom, laundry, paved alfresco entertaining area and rear garden - a private hedge and ornamental tree-lined oasis for outdoor enjoyment. Upstairs features a balcony with views to the city skyline and across Kew and Hawthorn, three bedrooms with picture windows, built-in robes and a largely original art-deco marble bathroom. Other features include ducted central heating, R/C air conditioning, overhead fans, ample storage including a storeroom and a remote double garage from Younger Court with direct internal access.
The home offers an idyllic lifestyle close to the CBD and Kew Junction with the renowned Leo's Fine Foods and Toscanos, cafes and restaurants and is just minutes from many of Melbourne's finest schools, transport options, Glenferrie Road plus the extensive Yarra River recreational parklands - a stylish and leafy oasis away from the vibrant inner city nearby.
