A distinguished 1920s family classic is set on a remarkable allotment of 975 square metres (approx.) with no heritage overlay and a 24 metre frontage is offered for the first time in over 40 year. Tastefully designed and updated this grand double story residence is a rare opportunity to secure a generational home where architectural integrity, timeless design and exceptional outdoor living come together with effortless style and with four-to-five bedrooms or potentially two studies, the home culminates in sundrenched poolside living that is the envy of home entertainers.
Beyond a parquetry-floored entry, the home's rich original character flows through to a sophisticated contemporary extension where its superb stone-topped kitchen appointed with Smeg induction cooking, a Neff oven and griller as well as a wine fridge - overlooks an expansive dining and living domain. A wall of rear glass continues the flow to a broad paved entertaining area and an oversized in-ground swimming pool, providing a private resort-like centrepiece for summer gatherings, family fun and long lunches under the afternoon sun.
Paying homage to the home's origins, a formal dining room and a lounge that is warmed by a roaring fireplace are beautifully proportioned rooms, while a pair of studies one upstairs and one downstairs - offer wonderful flexibility the upstairs with the potential to serve as a fifth bedroom. Further highlights include hydronic heating, built-in robes in the bedrooms, an oversized double garage with a workshop and volumes of storage throughout the home.
This is a prized Studley Park position with excellent access to elite private schools, plenty of transport and Kew Junction's shopping, café, dining and nightlife strip, while the Yarra River and its pristine parkland provide a wonderful backdrop to your sophisticated urban lifestyle.
