A serene sanctuary for family living
Architecturally designed in the 1970's for revered artist, Bruno Leti, this home is a nostalgic and peaceful family sanctuary offering substantial space and private indoor-outdoor enjoyment. Born from an era of Modernist architecture, the home's unique style bathes in natural light through broad windows and bright skylights, creating a warm and inviting ambience that instantly connects with its leafy environs.
Wrapped in bold Besser block walls, the home is cocooned in year-round comfort, while adding to its rustic style with exposed-rafter ceilings, hardwood joinery, and encircling gardens designed by award-winning Candeo landscape designers.
A soaring 4-metre raked ceiling adds voluminous space to the cosy, fireside lounge room, nurturing everyday relaxation beside a bright dining room for seamless entertaining. A connecting deck indulges indoor-outdoor entertaining, hosting alfresco dining beneath a lush vine-draped pergola beside a stunning garden.
The spacious retro-styled kitchen provides for the family with a full appointment of Miele appliances and abundant Victorian Ash cabinetry, while smartly dressed in original Daniel Robertson ceramic tiles and sleek stainless-steel surfaces.
The original artist's studio offers exceptional space and versatility, providing a built-in workstation, a sink, and hanging space to create a vast family room, a bedroom, or teens' retreat. Bordered by Ornamental Pear trees, a private courtyard integrates with the room, linking to a utility area that includes a shed with workbench, an undercover firewood area and veggie garden.
The main bedroom enjoys access to the courtyard, while pampering parents with extensive fitted robes and a skylit ensuite, while a secondary robed bedroom is serviced by a family bathroom. The upstairs level is a sunny sanctuary bordered by clerestory windows, providing space for a third robed bedroom and a study.
Complete with a carport beyond a secure motorised gate, the home is a private retreat for family living, draped in the comforts of hydronic heating and split system air-conditioning. Situated opposite North Balwyn Tennis Club and Hislop Park, the home is ideally positioned for family, mere paces from Balwyn High and Balwyn North Primary schools, and a leisurely stroll from Balwyn North's shops, cafes, and city-bound trams.
