Nestled on one of Melbourne’s most esteemed streets within the exclusive St James Park Estate, this classic entertainer is an extravagantly large 5-bedroom (+ study) renovated family residence, gently tucked away in this prestigious riverside streetscape. It presents multiple light-filled living zones and five bedrooms, three bathrooms, and a home office. The romance of yesteryear and effortless contemporary grace are tastefully intertwined in this lofty, light-filled home, which features a seamless alfresco transition and is located barely 5km from the CBD.

Introduced by a broad and embracing hallway, the home leads to a vast open-plan family rumpus room that is underpinned by a large subway-tiled entertainers’ kitchen in which angular stone benches create a six-person breakfast bar that invites your guests to enjoy a drink while you prepare a meal on the Ilve oven / cooktop. Effortlessly, two sets of double doors extend the open plan outdoors to paved living areas that are a joy for entertainers while overlooking the depths of a backyard filled with established fruit trees.

Intelligently zoned, the home presents a children’s wing all carpeted and set upstairs where four-robed bedrooms share easy access to a kids’ retreat and a family bathroom, whilst on the ground floor, the main bedroom offers huge walk-in robes and a pristine designer ensuite. Finely detailed ceilings, a fireplace, leadlight windows and bay windows sit comfortably alongside a contemporary reimagination in this home with a formal lounge room, separate dining, a huge laundry and hardwood flooring, as well as hydronic heating and air conditioning and multiple off-street parking.

Walk easily to the village-like charm, cafes and wine bars of Hawthorn West on Burwood Road, as well as St James Park and the banks of the Yarra River, plus you have trams along Burwood Road and trains from Hawthorn Railway Station for easy commuting to the city or elite private schools.
