46 Urquhart Street
Hawthorn

Occupying a privileged position within the prestigious, tree-lined Urquhart Estate, this captivating c1932 solid-brick Art Deco residence has been renovated to an exceptional standard, with in-vogue style, multiple living areas and generous five-bedroom family accommodation across two light-filled levels.

Elaborate mosaic marble flooring makes an immediate impression in the grand entrance foyer, beneath soaring ornate ceilings whose original curves inspire the contemporary arches that extend through the renovated interiors. The architectural beauty continues through the interconnecting formal living and sitting rooms, each with an ornate fireplace and intricate sunburst leadlight cabinetry. Expansive dining and family areas extend to the well appointed kitchen with a walk-in pantry, where extensive glazing opens directly to a broad paved terrace, allowing entertaining to move freely between the interiors and the gardens. Built-in seating features on the upper terrace, whilst below, children have plenty of room to play in the private garden, with a second undercover al-fresco area offering another beautiful place to entertain, linking with a separate gym, wellness studio or private work from home space.

Five generously proportioned bedrooms are arranged over both levels, including a privately positioned ground-floor main bedroom oriented to the gardens, with custom robes, bespoke marble-topped cabinetry and an adjacent bathroom. A versatile fifth bedroom or study retains its original fireplace and ornate ceilings, whilst upstairs, three additional bedrooms with extensive robes are accompanied by a central bathroom and spacious rumpus room with integrated media storage.

Comprehensively appointed with a designer powder room, hydronic heating, refrigerated reverse cycle heating/cooling, CCTV security, 100% wool carpets, ample storage and off-street parking for multiple vehicles, it enjoys outstanding proximity to Glenferrie Road's shopping and dining precinct, Swinburne University, leading schools and transport, including trains and trams connecting to Kew, Camberwell Junction and Richmond.
