Showcasing a refined fusion of genuine period character and modern luxury, this outstanding residence blends the charm of its original 1939 origins with a substantial architect-designed extension to create a benchmark for contemporary family living. Complete with a shimmering heated swimming pool and integrated Finnish sauna, and positioned in a prized, tree-lined street within walking distance of Back Creek and Ferndale Park, the home also enjoys close proximity to elite schools and everyday conveniences, delivering an exceptional lifestyle opportunity.
The classic brick façade introduces the original front portion of the home, where beautifully preserved interiors reveal decorative ceiling detailing, generous proportions and a warm, light-filled ambience. Two front bedrooms, a formal lounge and dining domain and the main bathroom reflect the home's enduring character, now enhanced by modern wide-board flooring and refined finishes throughout.
Seamlessly extending beyond the original footprint, the architect-designed rear addition delivers expansive contemporary living across two levels. Multiple living zones include a flexible lower-level retreat or fourth bedroom opening directly to the landscaped rear garden and pool surrounds, creating an effortless indoor-outdoor connection ideal for relaxed family living and entertaining.
At the heart of the home, the kitchen is both functional and inviting, featuring island bench seating, a Westinghouse six-burner gas cooktop with wall oven, Asko dishwasher and a thoughtfully integrated study nook, all framed by tranquil leafy outlooks.
Accommodation is equally impressive, highlighted by the generous main suite within the newer wing, complete with a luxurious ensuite and private balcony enjoying views across the swimming pool and neighbouring parkland. The family bathroom, with semi-ensuite access to one bedroom, continues the home's refined design with twin vanities, a walk-in rain shower and a stylish fluted vanity.
Further enhanced by landscaped gardens, paved alfresco areas, cellar, Finnish sauna, laundry, lock-up garage and off-street parking for up to three additional vehicles, this exceptional residence is a standout offering in the heart of Glen Iris. Zoned for Camberwell South Primary School and Camberwell High School, and close to Emmaus College, St Cecilia's Primary School and Caulfield Grammar, it also enjoys easy access to Toorak Road shopping, Tooronga Village, Camberwell Junction, Chadstone, Burwood Station and the Monash Freeway.
