5 Landale Road, Toorak

A contemporary oasis exuding the class, elegance, and quality so synonymous with leading architect Nicholas Day, this revitalised residence delivers a supreme standard of family living between tranquil Como Park, vibrant Toorak Village, and bustling Chapel Street. Converging trees heightening the allure of its exclusive cul-de-sac, a beautifully crafted interior lies beyond lush gardens, with a quiet front lounge a peaceful precursor of delightful spaces to come. Serving to sustain intended flow, a wonderfully open kitchen acts as the centre point of a magnificent main area, with a fully integrated dishwasher and fridge/freezer joined by first-class Gaggenau/Miele cooking appliances and abundant soft-close cabinetry. Flanked by a clever light court, a broad dining zone complements a serene and substantial family area featuring custom, floor-to-ceiling book shelving, a wood fire, and ribbons of all-day sunlight, with steel-framed bifolds transforming the space into a haven for the regular entertainer. Splashes of verdure enliven a north-facing backyard, ideal for blue-sky barbecues surrounded by friends. Promoting effortless movement between levels, a private elevator reaches luxurious top-floor accommodation, with an expansive main bedroom and pair of additional rooms accompanied by three lavish ensuites, walk-in/built-in robes, and a scenic office deftly doubling as a generous fourth bedroom. With designer pendants, French Oak floors, swathes of high-grade stone, and soaring ceilings fostering an ambiance of airiness and splendour, highlights include automated irrigation, plantation shutters, a ground-level powder room, sizeable laundry/mudroom, monitored alarm system, video intercom, CCTV, remote gate locking/unlocking, a basement gymnasium, climate-controlled wine cellar, and double garage with secure underground access. Central to the countless allures scattered across what is Melbourne’s most prestigious locale, it’s steps to outstanding coffee and brunch spots, casual and high-end restaurants, intimate and lively nightspots, boutique and large-scale retail, city trains and trams, illustrious public and private schools, and the picturesque Yarra River Trail.
