A landmark family holding in one of Kew’s most esteemed Yarra Bend streets – set on a remarkable allotment of 1150 square metres (approx.) with two natural driveways set into a staggering 28 metre street frontage - this five bedroom, three bathroom and two powder room Art Deco residence reveals a breath-taking renovation undertaken by Ken Charles of Centrum Architects. Merging the home’s exquisite 1920s inter-war character with contemporary open-plan living, sumptuous, poolside entertaining and an independent in-house studio apartment, the home is delightfully nestled between the bends of Yarra Boulevard and the vibrancy of Kew Junction. Proudly standing on the elevated side of the street with Japanese-inspired zen front gardens, the home reveals sweeping city views.
Extended both outwards and upwards with a considered sensitivity to its original heritage, the home’s heart is a lavishly light-filled kitchen/ meals with a semi-attached living room and seamless outdoor connection that is suited to home entertaining. Arranged around a vast island of stone with petra grigio quartz splash backs and accents themed throughout the home, the kitchen caters to gourmet food preparation, with a suite of Miele appliances, an integrated Miele refrigerator and a Butler’s kitchen, whilst the outdoor living area is bluestone-paved with a gas and solar-heated swimming pool and spa. Also overlooking the pool, a remarkable outdoor entertainment pavilion fully opens up to embrace an alfresco lifestyle, underpinned by an outdoor kitchen and woodfired pizza oven.
Catering perfectly to multigenerational family life and work-from-home scenarios, an independently accessed self-contained apartment sits within the home, offering a bedroom, a Miele equipped kitchenette with living/ dining, built-in robes and its own ensuite. Retaining a strong Art Deco connection, the formal dining room reveals ornate ceilings complemented by a fireplace with a Zimbabwe-granite hearth, whilst a similarly detailed formal living room – also with a fireplace – highlights stunning feature-lit cabinetry.
Upstairs, the main bedroom is impressively scaled with its own terrace, stunning city views, abundant built-in robes and a fully tiled ensuite, whilst the remaining trio of bedrooms share access to a remarkable bathroom with feature walls of petra grigio quartz. The list of additional highlights is extensive, including an over-sized double garage with additional storage and a workshop, as well as a home gymnasium, a wine storage room and a huge laundry with two washing machines and multiple drying racks, plus there is a security alarm with CCTV surveillance, ducted vacuum, hydronic heating and central heating/ air conditioning, 5.4KW capacity solar panels and 40,000 litre underground water tanks to feed the garden’s expansive irrigation system.
Barely five kilometres from the CBD and on the cusp of pristine natural parkland, this privileged position offers easy access to Kew’s coveted private school belt, as well as Kew Junction, Victoria Gardens and multiple city-bound tram routes.
