Boasting extravagant en-masse entertaining and alfresco poolside leisure, perfectly balanced with sumptuous, private family accommodation within a five-bedroom plus office layout, this home bestows a fulfilling and relaxing lifestyle. Its unrivalled location amid Hawthorn East’s prestigious tree-lined streets is just metres from Anderson Park, and within easy reach of transport, shopping, recreation, and eateries, while surrounded by Melbourne’s most elite schools.
Behind the security of a high brick fence the property employs every inch of its 766m2 (approx.) allotment. Remote entry leads into a leafy alfresco courtyard with a warm, central brazier, ahead of the sun-splashed poolside entertainment area. A sheltered portico welcomes guests to a grand foyer entrance where the glamorous interiors display a stunning melange of elaborate glazing, marble surfaces, and two-pack and timber-veneer joinery. Cocooned in the year-round comfort and efficiency of solid-brick and suspended-slab construction, with immense expanses of low-E double glazing, the home captures abundant natural light and garden views, including the most spectacular city-skyline panorama from the upper level.
