A Victorian soul with a modern heart A truly unique home - a country estate in the golden mile just off Mont Albert Road - close to fine schools, transport and all amenities. This iconic historic Victorian home - circa 1860 - set in magnificent, completely private gardens inspired by Baron Von Mueller, has seen many changes and now incorporates modern improvements, but has remained true to its illustrious past and retained the exquisite period detail of its era. Simply built in the Victorian style with understated elegance but complemented by the finest quality in etched glass, silk covered walls, ornate fireplaces and exquisite furnishings. Five large bedrooms, five sparkling bathrooms, a formal dining room, sitting room, family room and open plan kitchen with underground wine cellar provide outstanding executive style accommodation. Original stables have been converted to luxury guest accommodation including separate lounge, ensuite bathroom and sauna - and the second floor loft is now a billiard room with ensuite bathroom. Five sets of bi-fold doors open from family room and kitchen to pool, fountain and entertaining area. Throughout the property baltic timber floorboards, white marble mantels, high ceilings and deep cornices continue to provide the beauty for which the genre is famed. Land 36,000 sq ft approx.
