Inspect Strictly by Appointment
Privately positioned at the end of an exclusive cul-de-sac and elevated within magnificent botanical gardens, this exceptional residence is discreetly set behind a canopy of established trees, offering rare seclusion in a blue-chip setting. Held by the same family since 1959, the home reflects enduring quality, careful stewardship and timeless appeal in a serene, retreat-like environment.
Set across more than 800sqm (approx.), the surrounding gardens by renowned mid-century landscape designer Ellis Stones unfold with a distinct European sensibility, wrapping the home in layers of greenery and privacy. Refined sophistication defines the formal lounge, where natural light pours in and French doors extend to a substantial alfresco terrace and pool, a picturesque backdrop for entertaining.
A relaxed living room with concealed storage and bar flows effortlessly to the chef's kitchen, appointed with Gaggenau appliances and complemented by a striking glass atrium-style meals area overlooking a tranquil water feature and lush gardens. Honouring the home's architectural heritage, an intimate formal dining room and a private library are filled with colour, character and a sense of quiet culture which ensures flexibility for contemporary living.
The principal suite provides a peaceful sanctuary, complete with a walk-through robe, dressing room and marble ensuite, while three additional bedrooms enjoy leafy outlooks and offer their own distinct character and are accompanied by two bathrooms that captures sweeping city views. A cellar, extensive storage rooms, two-car garage, alarm system and heating and cooling complete the home's practical credentials.
Moments from leading private schools, the Main Yarra Trail, Como Park, Royal South Yarra Tennis Club, Burnley Golf Course and the boutiques and dining of Toorak Village, this is a residence of quiet distinction in one of Melbourne's most tightly held enclaves.
