An illustrious Federation landmark, this glorious c1900's solid brick residence is graced with elaborate period features and magnificent proportions. Distinguished by a substantial and versatile floorplan, prized location and with no heritage overlay, it is the perfect generational family home.
Behind an established hedged garden and exquisitely detailed exterior, rich original character is reflected inside by the Baltic pine floors, ornate 3m+ ceilings, leadlight windows and intricate fretwork. The majestic double arched hall introduces a grand sitting room with fireplace, sun-drenched home office, elegant formal dining room and the expansive living room with an alcove beneath a pressed metal ceiling. The generous family dining area and English-style marble kitchen appointed with Bosch/Smeg appliances opens to an L-shaped verandah and the private hedged garden. Flexible family accommodation comprises three king-sized bedrooms with built in robes, a bathroom and an opulent main bedroom suite or self-contained apartment complete with ensuite, dressing room, study, a beautifully proportioned library/retreat and separate entrance.
Impeccably presented to move in now while considering options for future improvements, it includes an alarm, video intercom, hydronic heating, RC/air-conditioners, powder-room, laundry, secure off street parking and auto gates. In an elite location, it is just a short walk to Toorak station, High St trams, fabulous cafes, restaurants and shops, prestigious schools, Orrong Park and Toorak Oval. Land size: 924sqm approx.
