Reminiscent of a French chateau with palatial columns and majestic proportions, the lavish medley of richly decorative ceilings, chandeliers, European Oak parquet floors and lashings of imported marble establish a tone of opulence within this five bedroom, four bathroom residence.

High ceilings and tall doorways harmonise with the expansive selection of living zones, from the theatre/study and formal lounge room up to the peaceful retreat where a large sun terrace encourages you to relax.

A marvellous design where you can entertain on any scale, the vast open-plan dining and family room offers year-round perfection. During the cooler months your friends will gather near the gas log fireplace, while in summer, you can push back the two sets of bi-folds and invite them to enjoy the atmosphere of the under-cover alfresco.

If cooking gives you pleasure, then the connoisseur’s kitchen will delight, featuring a marble island, Miele appliances and a second kitchen.

Every bedroom has a walk-in robe and ensuite access, and there is a ground floor guest suite as well as an upstairs master bedroom with dressing room and a floor-to-ceiling tiled dual vanity ensuite with a free-standing tub. Luxuriously comfortable, there is a powder room, ducted heating/air-conditioning and internal entry to a double auto garage.

Zoned for prestigious Balwyn High School and Greythorn Primary, walk to both these schools as well as the tram or bus to Kew’s leading schools and the city. Stroll to Boroondara Sports Complex and Gordon Barnard Reserve.
