The lines are perennially elegant, the proportions are precisely right, the principal spaces receive bright northern light – all the elements of this outstanding modern residence reflect the expertise that makes a Wayne Gillespie design so desirable. Beautifully built as well as brilliantly shaped, preceded by its own frontage to a sought after street, the downstairs spaces begin with a flexible formal living room overlooking a landscaped retreat. To the rear, north-facing living/dining areas and a marble and Miele fitted kitchen flow to a decked courtyard where sunny privacy and productive orange trees take you to Tuscany – or wherever you wish. Three upstairs bedrooms and two bathrooms, including a luxurious, light-filled main bedroom with a generous ensuite, line a gallery like hall while the downstairs home office, substantial laundry and powder-room add to the attraction. Internally accessed garage plus additional parking, close to Glenferrie Road shopping, with prestigious schools and public transport options in every direction.
