A Melbourne estate of significant presence and spectacular proportions since its c1882 completion, The Terricks is majestic Italianate renaissance Reed and Barnes mansion that retains the exceptional elegance of its era yet performs perfectly as family residence that responds to every present day demand with stellar success. The botanic beauty of the grounds and the grandeur of the external aesthetics create a stunning introduction to a series of unforgettable spaces, both formal and family focused, where character, quality and comfort form an irresistible combination. A refined reception room, substantial study, fabulous theatre and a superb dedicated billiards room define a wonderful wing of their own that’s zoned separately from a living/dining domain where the mood is modern and the style is sublime. Oak parquetry, marble surfaces, elite appliances, a walk-in pantry and a memorable cellar/wine room accompany the modern dimensions that spill seamlessly to a romantic terrace, seductive swimming pool and championship flood-lit tennis court. A main bedroom suite on the ground floor, with walk-in robes and an ensuite, sets a luxury level that’s matched upstairs by five further bedrooms and four additional bathrooms, all fitted and finished with first class flair. The flexibility of an upstairs living room and the beauty of its terrace add to the attraction of a residence that’s unrivalled in its excellence. A four car garage, substantial work-shop and second frontage to Oxley Road accompany The Terricks, on some 3,503m2, moments from great Glenferrie Road shopping and many of Melbourne’s leading schools.
