7 Glentilt Road
Glen Iris

Privately positioned at the rear of one of Glen Iris’ most tightly held cul-de-sacs, this exceptional family sanctuary presents a masterful architectural renovation where c1910 Edwardian grandeur is seamlessly united with a bold contemporary and alfresco sensibility. Oriented to capture abundant northern and western light, its remarkable proportions, refined detailing and flexible four-to-five bedroom, four-bathroom configuration create an outstanding generational residence in a privileged setting near Malvern Village, transport, parkland and elite schools.

Securely gated behind beautifully landscaped formal gardens, the home immediately reveals a deep respect for its heritage, with a grand entrance hall showcasing soaring pressed-metal ceilings and original leadlight. Beyond, a spectacular open-plan living and dining domain forms the heart of the home, centred around a sophisticated stone kitchen complemented by a fully appointed Butler’s Kitchen and premium European appliances including an oven, microwave, steamer oven, induction cooking, dishwasher and integrated refrigerator.

Two expansive sets of concertina doors create a seamless connection between the interiors and a superb undercover entertaining deck, built-in BBQ and in-ground swimming pool, establishing an exceptional setting for both intimate gatherings and large-scale entertaining.

Accommodation is equally impressive, with four generously proportioned bedrooms, including two with marble-finished ensuites and three appointed with extensive custom built-in robes. At the rear, a versatile rumpus room flows directly to the deck and incorporates a second kitchen, providing outstanding flexibility for entertaining, guest accommodation or an intergenerational living arrangement. A separate study, which could readily serve as a fifth bedroom, further enhances the adaptable floorplan, while a traditional lounge with original fireplace provides a refined retreat.

A securely gated carport with additional driveway parking for multiple vehicles, built-in BBQ, secure video entry and comprehensive reverse-cycle heating and air conditioning complete an impeccably considered residence.

Perfectly positioned for enduring family appeal, the home is moments from the refined café culture, dining and wine bars of Malvern Village, Harold Holt Memorial Swimming Pool, city-bound and Glenferrie Road trams, Gardiner Railway Station, the M1 Freeway and the expansive trails and parkland of Gardiners Creek.
