24 Eastbourne Street
Windsor

A landmark example of bold, inner-urban architectural brilliance, undertaken by Liam Eastop of the renowned Eastop Architects, this Australian Interior Design Award winning, three bedroom plus study residence has been masterfully designed for an almost theatrical sense of occasion and a synthesis of light and proportion that is certain to tantalise the senses. Arranged under its signature skylit void, with an ingenious indoor-outdoor transition, this unforgettable home blends Japanese themes with edgy inner-urban authenticity, right on the cusp of Chapel St.

Within an angular facade of blackened timber and concrete, the home creates an eye-catching street presence and has been completely re-built to reveal an evocative open-plan living in which its striking, unique, black-stoned kitchen overlooks dining and living, all with inspired glazed concertina doors that open-up to a Japanese-style internal courtyard. Equally brilliant, a huge pivoting door creates access to the carport, thus completing a merging of indoor and outdoor spaces that is sure to delight al fresco entertainers.

Each of the bedrooms is generously proportioned and appointed with wonderful, customised robe storage - most notably, the upstairs master bedroom in which walk-in robes and a fully-tiled ensuite deliver five-star opulence. Meanwhile, an open study upstairs can be used as an additional lounge or retreat and a comprehensive list of thoughtful inclusions includes a second bathroom, powder room, blonde Oak flooring, hydronic heating and refrigerated air conditioning.

Wander easily to one of Melbourne's most iconic strips of cafes, great restaurants, bars, clubs and independent shopping, while you have trams along both Chapel St and High St as well as city-bound trams from Windsor Railway Station.
