Canterbury

Creating a commanding presence within Canterbury’s esteemed Golden Mile, this palatially proportioned French Provincial residence tastefully epitomizes architectural excellence and contemporary luxury over three elevator-connected levels that make an unrivalled statement in scale and elegance. Offering five bedrooms, seven bathrooms and a study, this is a breath-taking home that culminates in a relaxed open-plan and alfresco rear backed by stunning poolside entertaining, all in the heart of some of Melbourne’s finest private and public schooling options.

Within a grand entrance foyer, a paneled lounge room with crystal chandeliers is warmed by a gas fireplace as it offers a formal welcome to the home, whilst at its rear a vast open-plan dining / living room is underpinned by a gourmet Miele-equipped kitchen, all of which is organised around an imposing, waterfall-edged island of magnificent marble. A firm commitment to the quality of Miele and marble continues into the Butler’s Kitchen, whilst two sets of concertina doors extend the open-plan outdoors to a heated alfresco dining room, living and a marble outdoor kitchen – with sauna - that overlooks the home’s heated in-ground swimming pool. Completed with a pizza oven, BBQ, Vintec wine fridge and a sauna, the promise here is one of endless hours spent with family and friends.

Set downstairs, adjacent to an eight-car garage, the home offers a fully sound-proofed home cinema serviced by a large Miele-equipped marble kitchenette, plus there is a climate-controlled wine cellar with tasting room and a gymnasium as well as a fully-tiled marble bathroom. Offering another alternative living zone, set upstairs, a huge lounge / living room is a wonderful family retreat adjacent to the bedrooms and appointed by a built-in TV with Sonos sound system and another kitchenette.

Each of the bedrooms is a staggeringly large pamper zone designed to deliver privacy and indulgence to each family member, appointed with walk-in robes and fully-tiled ensuites – a spa ensuite for the primary bedroom - and marble-topped vanities, plus there are two powder rooms, a temperature-controlled French Coolroom with freezer in the garage, a security alarm, CCTV, central and zoned heating and air conditioning throughout.

Zoned for both Camberwell High School and Canterbury Girls Secondary College, this is an exclusive location surrounded by elite private schools, just moments from Maling Road’s café scene and Canterbury Railway Station, while Camberwell Junction is also within easy reach.
