Set within one of Malvern’s most distinguished tree-lined streets, this impressive architect-designed residence has undergone a remarkable transformation that extends beyond architecture into a fully realised expression of contemporary refinement. Designed for those who live expansively, its scale and craftsmanship play out in bold materiality, from marble finishes to steel-framed glass, while towering hedges enclose a private, poolside setting made for long lunches that stretch into the evening.
The secure gardens by landscape designer Ben Scott give way to sunlit interiors, where European oak is offset by garden-framed outlooks that shift with the light throughout the interior, negating family harmony and large-scale hosting with a measured flow between formal and informal living domains. A Calacatta Michelangelo marble island forms a striking focal point within the chef's kitchen, accompanied by a beautifully equipped butler’s pantry with french door refrigerator, a suite of high-end Miele appliances, Liebherr refrigeration, and discreetly integrated storage. Beyond, a gas fireplace, full-height glazing and steel-framed doors draw the eye outdoors from the living areas, highlighting a lush garden setting where a solar-heated, mosaic-tiled pool and large entertainers’ terrace, with BBQ, reinforce a considered indoor-outdoor connection.
Enriched by twin north-facing balconies and sweeping park vistas, the primary suite showcases luxury at its finest. The marble-wrapped ensuite underscores its stature with a dual jade-green vanity, heated floors, a Dadoquartz freestanding bath, and twin shower, complemented by a gallery of robes and a second dressing room. Five additional robed bedrooms, three in-vogue marble-appointed bathrooms and a ground-floor powder room enveloped in distinctive Andrew Alford Wallpaper, are matched by a sixth bedroom that evolves with everchanging needs, ideal as a gym, pilates studio, or home office.
The basement’s remote double garage with a Tesla EV charging dock aligns with the home’s sophisticated approach, incorporating ducted heating and cooling, dual laundries, garden irrigation, heated bathroom flooring, and integrated sound. Located in a coveted tree-lined pocket, a mere 50 metres to Sir Robert Menzies Reserve, and with easy access to bike path and walking trails, Monash Freeway, Kooyong Tennis Club and close to Bialik College, St Cahterine’s, Scotch College, Lauriston Girls School, St Kevins College and St Catherine’s School.
