Last Listing description (October 2024)

A magnificent example of Federation grandeur, this circa 1910 residence is complemented by an architecturally designed renovation by Nik Karalis of Woods Bagot and overseen by John Bornas of Workroom. The residence presents a breathtaking synthesis of its original character with a sun-drenched, North facing alfresco rear that is perfect for the most discerning of entertainers. Offered for the first time in almost 30 years and set on an extraordinary allotment of approximately 1050sqm, the property backs onto the open space of Foley Reserve and is in close proximity to Kew's tightly-held private school belt.

Entering through a grand entrance hall, the home retains the opulence of Victorian ceiling heights combining stunning period features including resurfaced Kauri pine floors and ornate details. A solid american oak pivot door reveals an inspired open-plan family/dining room that is underpinned by an Arclinea kitchen with premium appliances and a Carrara marble island bench with black sandstone under foot. The space also features matched american oak paneling, open fireplace with granite hearth and a full width expanse of north-facing glass that blurs the distinction between indoors and out.

Maintaining the extraordinary scale, a further oak pivot door reveals an ambient living room flowing into a more formal living room warmed by a gas log fireplace with embellished ceiling detail which could also be a library or home office. Each of the bedrooms is impressively sized with built-in robes and three traditional open fireplaces with the main bedroom incorporating walk-in robes, study area and a skylit terrazo ensuite. Further highlights include a family bathroom, large laundry, powder room as well as central heating and air conditioning.

Opening to the landscaped northern garden, the home features a bluestone-paved entertaining area set beside the solar and gas-heated in-ground swimming pool, spa bath and a sun drenched deck with built-in bench seating. The wine cellar with tasting room adds another dimension to home entertaining. This blue ribbon eastern suburban position allows you to walk easily to a diverse range of cafes, restaurants, bars and shops both at Kew Junction and Glenferrie Road whilst Victoria Street Richmond and Victoria Gardens are also just moments away.
