Master architect Robin Boyd has left a legacy across Melbourne's property landscape - and the 1966-crafted 'Wildwood' is one of those iconic creations.
Reimagined with modern features and finishes and a private lap pool on a hideaway 1053sqms (approx.) of whimsical floral gardens, with a contemporary entertainer's kitchen with Euro appliances, hydronic heating, and zoned living with 7 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms for intergenerational freedom. It's a rare opening in this idyllic cul de sac close to Vermont Primary, Vermont Secondary, and Bellbird Dell.
Tucked away in the bowl of Villa Mews court, the timeless residence showcases all the hallmarks of mid-century design - drawing in abundant natural light, and framing its gardens like a living picture, with grand windows unveiling the greenery at every turn.
That smart design makes you feel immersed in nature as you move through the sweeping hallways and airy living space of this statement residence - naturally insulated by double brickwork, with the addition of 9000L of under house rainwater and 3 standing height storage rooms for use as wine cellar, hobby workshop or storage areas.
The modern refresh enhances the elegance of the historic build, with a renovated kitchen including Caesar stone benchtops, 6-burner Ilve professional cooker, and Bosch dishwasher. The three newly renovated bathrooms with quality tapware and large format bathroom tiles blend with Jarrah hardwood floors, clinker brick walls, and three open fireplaces for a minimalist look with character touches.
The basement living wing features its own entrance, bathroom, bedroom and versatile gym space (or potential kitchen conversion), ideal as a teen retreat or independent living quarters for live-in seniors or guests.
Further updates to this classic home include a new roof, updated plumbing and electrics, and a new hydronic heating system. A travertine paved pool sets an instantly calming scene for modern resort living - a perfectly private address concealed by bamboo landscaping along the fence line.
Not just a magnificent home, but an exclusive locale zoned for the top ranking VSC (STSA), on the fringe of beautiful bushland and birdlife at Bellbird Dell, the Eastern Fwy and Eastlink expressway, and shopping at Vermont South, Brentford Square, Eastland and the newly upgraded Westfield Knox.
