More than a house, it’s a time-steeped living canvas. Custom-designed by the original owner in the 1980s and lovingly revitalised in spring 2021, this double-brick residence blends enduring craftsmanship with a harmonious design philosophy, creating a residence that exudes calm strength and profound cultural richness.
Entry Hall — The Home’s Talisman:
Step inside and experience the fortune that awaits. Underfoot, Italian natural marble is artistically inlaid to form a poetic emblem of harmony, “Crouching Tiger, Auspicious Blessing.” From foreground woods to resting tiger on stone, rising ranges, misted peaks and open sky, the layered tableau forms a crafted emblem of protection and prosperity.
Living Room — A Pavilion in the Garden:
A soaring, skylit ceiling bathes the room in natural light, instantly elevating the space with both volume and tranquility. Full-height glazing frames the ever-changing seasons of the central garden; on the opposite side, twin picture windows capture the soft dance of leaves, making the room feel like a serene pavilion, open to the rhythm of nature. The asymmetric built-ins, integrated with the fireplace, create a visual symphony—dynamic yet serene, warm yet refined.
Four Bedrooms — Quiet, Sunlit, Garden-Connected:
Each bedroom is graced with either a generous bay window or a spacious terrace, inviting in garden views, gentle sunlight, and the whisper of leaves in the breeze. The home’s double-brick construction ensures privacy, acoustic comfort, and a steady, comfortable warmth through all seasons.
Kitchen — Storage as a Fine Art:
The kitchen is a carefully orchestrated symphony of daily living. Every corner is thoughtfully designed for optimal light, and each tool is positioned with ergonomic precision. An abundance of cabinetry and drawers turns clutter into an elegant arrangement, making cooking a true pleasure. Separated from the living room, the kitchen ensures peace and focus. Five glass doors and windows invite views of the central and rear gardens, keeping nature within sight while cooking.
Flowing Garden — Everlasting Vitality:
The elevated design of the front garden creates an independent space, where a stone path leads you into serenity, subtly complementing the side planter. The curved, free-flowing flower beds break symmetry with grace, adding lively charm to the landscape. Curated plants create a garden that changes with the seasons—each step a new scene. The central garden extends from the living room, becoming the home’s breathing space, connecting nature to the heart of the home.
Prime Location, Effortless Connections:
Nestled in Hawthorn East, one of Melbourne’s most desirable neighbourhoods, this home is just a short stroll from Andson Park and Camberwell Junction, where tree-lined streets define the area’s peaceful charm. The Tram Route 72 is only 100 meters away, with the train station just 1.5 kilometers from your door. Prestigious private schools are also nearby, making it an ideal location for families.
More than just a residence, this is a union of aesthetics and culture—timeless, and deeply livable. Private inspections are warmly welcomed; perhaps spring is the perfect moment for you to encounter this rare treasure.
