The Maitland is intimately connected with its neighbourhood – its design inspired by the textures and tones of its leafy streets. This colour and material palette weaves throughout the building’s architecture and interiors, creating a harmonious experience that invites discovery over the years. Impeccably crafted, this boutique collection of residences is defined by a meticulous attention to detail and design.
From the grain of the timber to the hue of the brick, each element is selected with care and finished to perfection. These highly refined two and three bedroom residences are the result of a collaboration between Gibson Developments, Bruce Henderson Architects and Jack Merlo Design & Landscape. Together, this distinguished team is delivering contemporary homes with artistry and precision.
Within The Maitland residences, a sense of natural refinement is expressed through exquisite textures, an ordered composition of space and a nuanced palette.
These are light, bright and welcoming homes where the exterior and interior design is articulated in the same tonal language. Warm white walls are enriched by darker accents and subtle textures, from cool stone to rich oak. Many of the homes feature double doors at the entrance, leading into generous open plan kitchen, living and dining spaces. In the private areas of the home, elegant bedrooms with walk-in robes lead to ensuites with custom designed Omvivo vanity units unique to The Maitland.
These are residences designed to enhance a contemporary lifestyle, with luxuriously appointed kitchens positioned at the heart of the home. Here, large island benches offer a deliberate shift from a traditional dining room, while clever ergonomics and storage ensure that cooking and sharing meals are effortless and social experiences. Integrated European appliances, chrome fixtures and fittings, natural stone benchtops and recessed lighting add final touches of opulence.
The tightly held enclave of Glen Iris is home to a well-established collection of beloved providores, cafés and restaurants – many of which are only a short walk from The Maitland. Local streets are lined with everything from wine stores offering local tastings to longstanding bakeries renowned for handmade confections.
The Maitland is located between four parks, including Malvern Public Gardens, a community favourite known for its public sporting events and moonlight concerts. For adventures further afield, Gardiners Creek Trail is perfect for bike lovers as it winds its way through Richmond and on to the city.
Surrounded by the vibrant and picturesque suburbs of Toorak, Malvern, Hawthorn and Camberwell, Glen Iris residents rarely need to venture far to enjoy the best of Melbourne. With boutiques, eateries and parklands close by, this is a place to savour village living and the finer things in life, all just moments from home.
