Distinguished by expansive, sun-lit proportions and magnificent garden surrounds, ‘Heathcote’, an impressive c1880 double-fronted Hawthorn brick residence, offers exceptional single-level living, poolside entertainment and secure three-car garaging in one of South Yarra’s most prestigious residential streets.

A wraparound verandah and tuck-pointed brickwork introduce the grandeur of the residence set in established gardens, opening into a generous arched hallway rich in period detail. A skylit passage leads past the bedroom accommodation to expansive living and dining areas, culminating in the main living domain, where a wood-burning fireplace and a series of French doors open to the beautifully landscaped rear garden and striking in-ground heated pool, ideal for year-round entertaining. A substantial kitchen, appointed with Gaggenau induction and gas cooking, and a stainless steel oven, microwave and dishwasher, extends to an adjoining laundry/butler’s pantry, providing ample space for avid cooks and hosts. Beyond, a private study offers a quiet retreat, secluded from the living and bedroom zones. The second living room, defined by a marble OFP, connects directly to the open-plan areas, creating both connection and separation as desired.

At the front of the home, a lavishly-sized main bedroom features high pressed-metal ceilings, an open fireplace, a walk-in robe, and an ensuite. Three further bedrooms with built-in robes follow, accompanied by a family bathroom with a heated towel rail, whilst additional highlights include ducted heating and cooling, intercom security, automatic garden irrigation, high ceilings, gated side access for pool and garden maintenance and a remote-controlled triple garage with drive-through capability.

With Hawksburn Tennis Club nearby, this captivating home is ideally situated in a quiet, tree-lined street within walking distance of Hawksburn and Toorak Villages, Como Park, Hawksburn train station and multiple tram routes, with easy freeway access and close to many of Melbourne's leading private schools.
