French Provincial Family Luxury in the BHS Zone

An extravagant expression of French Provincial architectural excellence in the exclusive streets of the Balwyn High School zone, this opulent family residence presents five bedrooms, six bathrooms and a home office, all completed to the very highest of standards and presented perfectly as new. Under soaring ceilings with exquisite Herringbone-styled flooring and a lavish use of marble throughout, this is an unforgettable home organised over three elevator-connected levels and all with the good fortune of the number eight street number.

Well elevated above its privileged leafy streetscape, the home creates a dramatic first impression as imposing solid timber doors open to reveal a remarkable sense of proportion that flows through to an open-plan living area. Underpinned by a Miele-equipped kitchen with marble surfaces, a Butler’s kitchen, induction cooking and a marble-topped bar area, entertainers will love the easy flow to undercover alfresco dining where a built-in BBQ is complemented by a soothing water feature.

Carefully considered for large and multigenerational families, a generous floor plan accommodates a large lounge warmed by a gas log fireplace, as well as a fully sound-proofed home cinema and an open upstairs living room. Further, each of the bedrooms is an impressively-scaled sanctuary with walk-in robes – one with built-in robes – as well as a fully-tiled marble-topped ensuites, whilst the main bedroom is a five-star experience with twin vanities and a feature bathtub.

As expected in a home of such rare and enduring quality, the list of inclusions is extensive, including a six-car garage in the basement, a wine cellar with tasting room capacity, a sauna in the sixth bathroom, central and zoned heating and air conditioning, as well as brilliant security that includes coded intercom entry at the front gate, keyless front door entry and a security alarm.

This is a genuinely blue ribbon location, zoned also for Boroondara Park Primary School and within easy reach of wonderful local cafes, shops at Greythorn Village and the open spaces at Leigh Park, as well as the 285 bus and the 48 tram for easy private school access, plus you have Westfield Doncaster, the Eastern Freeway and its Park & Ride just a few minutes away as well.
