THE DEAL
Blending elegance with opulence, this sensational, Federation-era home is among Moonee Ponds’ finest, offering a masterclass in luxury for families to cherish for decades to come.
Sprawling over a vast 816sqm (approx.), north-facing parcel, the extraordinary home lies beyond a street stance that’s sure to entice, with leadlight and box-bay windows, lush landscaping, and a broad veranda charming precursors for remarkable interior
spaces. A wide entrance hall makes a lasting impression, with a towering ceiling and ornate features setting a tone of intricacy and detail carried on throughout. Accommodation is extensive, with five bedrooms split across two bright levels. Alternate up-and-down masters ensure flexibility; both accompanied by walk-in robes and lavish ensuites with soaker tubs, brushed-bronze tapware, and tiles imported from Italy. A chic main bathroom joins built-in robes in serving generous third and fourth bedrooms, while a versatile fifth doubles as an ideal base for the home professional.
With a day bed making clever use of a box-bay window, a considerable formal lounge is a perfect complement to sun-splashed entertaining zones, all centred around a striking, stone-and-timber kitchen with substantial waterfall island, double DishDrawers, imported splashback tiles, and a 1500mm ILVE cooker comfortably catering for droves. Surrounded by a veranda, sheer curtains, and windows for a wonderful breeze, a light-filled living space provides a gas-converted fireplace for cosy winter nights, while bi-fold doors merge an open dining zone with a huge deck and backyard tailor-made for family gatherings.
With quiet southern and fire-side northern terraces brilliant for social drinks watching sunsets, further highlights include designer lighting from About Space, tiles imported via Perini and De Fazio, Baltic pine and Blackbutt floors, split-system and ducted heating and cooling, a large storeroom, laundry/butler’s pantry with extra DishDrawer pair, oversized double garage facing rear laneway, and secure front-yard parking for four additional cars.
Sensationally placed with the best of Puckle Street and Mt Alexander Road metres away, it’s a short, relaxing stroll to Queens Park Pool and Lake, Convoy for a first-rate coffee, Il Caminetto for a superb pizza, trams bound for the CBD, and Moonee Valley Racecourse, with CityLink and prestigious schools both close by.
