A true family paradise for the indoor-outdoor entertainer, this luxury home overflows with up-to-the-minute trends and designer finishes in a leafy cul-de-sac location. Merging panache and practicality in the most luxurious manner, the free-flowing layout delivers exceptional space, filled by an uplifting ambience from its northerly aspect.

Wrapped by soaring ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows, the home’s dual living zones bathe in natural light by day and the cosy glow of gas fireplaces by night. The formal lounge and dining rooms gather crowds of family and friends over warm Oak floorboards, enriching vibrant dinners with buffet cabinetry and a spirits’ bar.

The casual domain is paved with gleaming porcelain tiles, nurturing everyday relaxation beneath a 3.3m high ceiling. The kitchen and butler’s pantry are the hub of this area, dressed in a striking black and white colour palette and draped in lustrous stone, offering an exciting array of Miele appliances including gas and induction cooktops, and near-endless storage, while incorporating a dining table for casual family meals.

A wall of bi-folding doors extends the interior for lively indoor-outdoor entertaining amid towering tropical gardens. A dining patio hosts year-round alfresco enjoyment beneath a louvred roof, while a sparkling pool offers hours of family fun under the northern sun.

Upstairs, a home cinema keeps kids at bay for hours on end, providing built-in sound and a fixed screen, plus alfresco retreat on a wide balcony. Four spacious robed bedrooms are afforded ensuite access to three fully tiled bathrooms, including a lavish master suite with dual dressing rooms and a luxe ensuite with a freestanding tub.

Providing a large home office on the ground floor with a bespoke desk, plus a guest powder room, and a large laundry, the home is finished by a basement triple garage beyond secure, motorised gates.

Situated within footsteps of St Kevin’s and St Catherine’s schools, and minutes from an array of premium public and private education, the home promotes a leisurely lifestyle at the edge of the Yarra River’s unending recreation, and an easy stroll to Heyington station, city-bound trams, and Toorak Village’s boutique retailers.
