Masterfully renovated to 100% defy cliché and introduce a New York-style sense of sophistication to the tree-lined elegance of Toorak, this utterly bespoke studio apartment is like nothing you've ever encountered.
Originally crafted by the renowned architect Roy Grounds of National Gallery fame as his private residence, this is an iconic 1950s architectural masterpiece of rare and enduring historical significance. One of only five in the original building, the apartment far exceeds expectation and is underpinned by a gourmet kitchen in which charcoal stone benchtops are complemented by a V-Zug oven, an integrated Hafele refrigerator and light fittings that are quite simply works of art. Huge glass concertina doors extend the space outdoors to a private and north-facing garden oasis that is enormous and difficult to believe, whilst additional highlights of this details-oriented home include carport parking, brilliantly concealing TV cabinetry, industrial-look hydronic heating and split system air conditioning.
This is one of only a handful of Melbourne's most exclusive locations capable of doing justice to such a unique residence, nestled between the banks of the Yarra River and the cafes, fine dining, boutique shopping, city-bound trams and general ritz of Toorak Village.
