Designer indulgence is at the heart of this spectacularly renovated and extended mid-century jewel – a lavish transformation that will excite discerning families seeking light-filled interiors, lush green outlooks, and timeless architectural pedigree in leafy Balwyn.
Originally master-crafted by award-winning architect Kenneth Edelstein in the 1970s, this unique residence features striking sloped rooflines, soaring vaulted timber ceilings, exposed brick feature walls, and banks of north-facing double glazing that strategically flood every room—except the wet areas—with natural light throughout the day. Each of these spaces seamlessly connects to the surrounding courtyard, enhancing the home’s indoor-outdoor livability.
Reimagined by the renowned team at KK & Co, the interiors radiate warmth, sophistication, and modern elegance. The calming palette and beautifully curated finishes create a true sanctuary, brought to life by premium engineered oak flooring and thoughtful spatial planning.
Extraordinarily safe and private behind auto gates, the home opens to an impressive foyer and sun-kissed study, leading to the expansive open-plan family, dining, and kitchen zones. At the heart of the kitchen is a marble-wrapped island, surrounded by top-of-the-line Miele appliances – including an integrated fridge, pyrolytic oven, steam oven and dishwasher – and complemented by a butler’s pantry and temperature-controlled wine cellar. Entertain in style with the bi-fold servery window that opens to the landscaped alfresco, and enjoy seamless flow via multiple tri-slide stacker doors, including two that stand at an impressive 3.3 metres tall.
The low-maintenance garden is both practical and beautiful, brimming with mature trees and greenery. With ample scope for transformation, the large courtyard offers the perfect opportunity to add a sunroom, extend the living space, or simply enjoy as-is for relaxed outdoor living.
Providing for every modern family need, the thoughtful five-bedroom layout includes two ensuite bedrooms, with a private master retreat boasting a walk-in robe, dual-vanity ensuite with floor-to-ceiling tiling, and a freestanding bath – all with direct access to the garden.
Additional features include a quiet reading nook, powder room, fully-fitted laundry, in-floor hydronic heating, individually controlled split system air conditioning, oversized double auto garage, three garden water tanks, and a handy storeroom – every detail carefully considered for maximum comfort and functionality.
This is a rare opportunity to secure a slice of Melbourne’s architectural history, beautifully reimagined for contemporary living. Positioned just moments from Beckett Park, Mont Albert Primary School, and the 109 tram to Box Hill Central, Balwyn Village, Melbourne’s top private schools, and the CBD.
