Set on the corner of Towers Road and Towers Lane, this residence holds a premier Toorak address. With its tall, classic brick façade, wrought-iron balconies and Paul Bangay Gardens, it sits comfortably amongst some of Melbourne’s most notable homes. What stands out immediately is its generosity; in its proportions, its build quality, its north-facing gardens and its capacity to support modern family life. Inside, a gracious entrance hall opens to formal living and dining rooms with a gas fireplace and chandeliers, overlooking the front garden. Parquetry floors, high ceilings, marble and bespoke cabinetry give the interiors substance, with a fitted study and a music room or bedroom nestled nearby. Everyday life centres around the kitchen and family room beneath coffered timber ceilings, with Gaggenau appliances including induction and BBQ cooktops, stone bench tops and a walk-in pantry. Tall French doors open from the kitchen to the north-facing gardens, where a gas and solar heated pool and tennis court await. Upstairs, four large bedrooms offer comfort and complete privacy. The main bedroom has a dressing room with extensive fitted storage and a marble bathroom with arched detailing, brass fittings and a spa bath. A further bedroom opens onto a broad north-facing terrace. The lower level contains a large multipurpose room, theatre, gym, kitchenette and bathroom with a private garden entrance, all well suited to residences and guests alike who value their independence. Several generations can share this home, without sharing every part of the day. Practicalities are considered throughout; with hydronic and reverse-cycle heating and cooling, two laundries, a cellar, extensive storage, a security and communications room, and secure garaging for six cars. The estate is positioned near some of Melbourne’s best schools, with Toorak Village a short distance away and the CBD only a fifteen-minute drive.
