Tucked quietly behind its own secret garden entrance, this north facing home is a surprising gem. Built c1928, this clinker brick Art Deco has been respectfully renovated and finished with well-curated appointments that instil a sense of harmony.

Solidly built, the home retains original joinery and doors, sash windows, ornate cornices and tall ceilings and has been upgraded with chevron patterned Oak wood floors that feel solid underfoot. Boasting a bright living zone overlooked by a bespoke black kitchen that utilises the space masterfully and is fitted with gold hardware, Smeg gas cooking and dish drawer. Two double bedrooms (one with mirrored robes) are served by an impressive bathroom with walk in rainfall shower and marble vanity as well as a generous fitted laundry. This quiet haven also features comforting hydronic heating throughout, room to spill out onto a leafy alfresco, separate (ample) storage room on title and gated parking for one.

Located in a premium pocket that's a quick walk to the Yarra River, Kooyong Tennis Club and various other parklands strung together by Gardener's Creek Trail as well as cafes and shopping at Malvern and Toorak Villages, train and tram options.
