Spanning an immense 797m2 (approx.) in the prestigious Studley Park estate, this beautiful English-country-styled home is offered for the first time in over 70 years. Built in c1950, the home stood as a grand contemporary home amid its period streetscape, embellished with stately wallpapers and elegant pendant lights, while offering an idyllic family lifestyle with northerly swimming pool recreation.
In largely original yet comfortable condition today, the home serves as a blank canvas for the next creative owner, delivering exciting options to add a touch of 21st century through renovation and luxury extension (subject to council approval).
Bathed in northerly light, the home greets guests at a sitting room entry beneath 10-foot ceilings. A vast lounge room offers space to mingle family and friends beside a cosy gas fireplace, while a grand dining room accommodates crowds for lively dinner parties. At the back of the home, the kitchen provides a full array of appliances including gas cooking and ample mid-century storage, along with space for casual meals.
Outside the extensive gardens are a sprawling space to indulge alfresco dining, swimming pool recreation, and boisterous kids' play under the northern sun, while providing plenty of off-street parking at the back of the home, including a garage, a carport, and a workshop for the hobbyist.
The accommodation places parents in a ground floor main bedroom, complemented by a garden retreat through French doors, and an adjacent bathroom. Upstairs, two attic-styled bedrooms provide tremendous space with wall-to-wall robes, enjoying treetop views through quaint dormer windows, while sharing a central bathroom.
Finished with a versatile home office or fourth bedroom, plus a large laundry, the home enjoys one of Kew's most premium addresses, mere footsteps from the Yarra River's scenic recreation, and Kew Junction's boutique shopping, eateries, and public transport, while surrounded by Melbourne's finest public and private schools, and the Eastern freeway for a quick CBD commute.
