Yesteryear's charm and today's comforts in a spectacular renovation
Intertwining enchanting period character with today's best luxuries in a sensational top-to-toe renovation, this Edwardian home is a beautiful sanctuary for modern living. Sitting above the street amid leafy treetops, the home embraces privacy and tranquillity, while situated paces from Kew Junction's unlimited lifestyle indulgences.
Beyond an alluring return verandah, a leadlight entry transports you into a world where rooms are brimming with the elegance of its day. Richly stained Baltic floorboards lie beneath soaring 12-foot pressed metal ceilings, while a scattering of boxed-bay windows, ceiling roses, and timber fretwork fill the rooms with an enviable charm.
Filled with northern sun, the lounge room invites quiet retreat beside a wall of bookshelves by day, while it gathers family and friends by a cast-iron fireplace at night. The adjoining dining room holds the largest of dinner parties beside the kitchen, connecting with the gardens through bevelled-glass French doors. A wide hostess island is draped in a striking slab of New York marble, while the home cook is indulged with quality stainless-steel appliances, ample storage, and hardy Corian benches.
A serene bluestone patio hosts sundrenched alfresco dining beneath a vine-draped pergola, overlooking manicured lawns and a border of ornamental pear trees. Nurturing the creative side of every family member, the yard offers a thriving veggie garden, a cute cubby for kids, a garden studio for artistic pursuits or remote work, and a garage workshop for the hobbyist.
Each bedroom offers lavishly space for rest, retreat, and study, plus extensive built-in robes, sharing a central contemporary bathroom. Finished with an attic ladder leading to a huge roof space, plus an outdoor WC, and ample off-street parking, the home is coddled in modern comforts including ducted heating and split system air-conditioning.
Situated on a large allotment with room to extend (subject to council approval), the home offers immediate access to Kew Junction, Victoria Park, city-bound trams, and Coles supermarket, while set among leading public and private schools, and the Eastern freeway for a quick commute to city or coast.
