An Exquisite Modernist
This private and exclusive mid-century modernist is a rare find. North facing, the home is a demonstration of considered environmentally sustainable architecture, exuding a sophisticated elegance with its muted earthy tones that combine to produce a timeless beauty.
Winding up the long driveway, you'll be greeted by stands of eucalypts and beautiful rolling lawns.
The tone is set at entry, with thoughtful, landscaping by Sam Cox, including a stunning pond surrounded by crazy paving and a generous grape vine.
Once inside, you’ll be captivated by the stunning floors, featuring designer tiles that exude confidence and style.
The living spaces impress. The formal sunken lounge offers breathtaking wall to wall garden views on one side and pool views on the other. Adjacent is a flexible space that can be a formal dining room, or a quiet reading retreat offering seamless views and easy access to the pool through sliding glass doors.
For those who work or study from home you'll find a study with a cathedral ceiling, ceiling fan, and blinds – a perfect environment for concentration and creativity.
The kitchen is a chef's dream, featuring stunning crazy black slate floors, aggregate stone tops, and a central island bench. Enjoy beautiful views while preparing meals, and take advantage of the high-end appliances, including a Falcon gas cooker, Asko range, and Asko dishwasher. The servery window connects the kitchen to the patio, making outdoor entertaining a breeze. The separate coffee station completes the picture of a sophisticated, comprehensive, and functional kitchen.
The adjoining casual living and meals areas are perfect for relaxed gatherings with family and friends. The timber-lined ceiling and stunning views create a peaceful atmosphere that invites you to unwind.
The master bedroom is a sanctuary of luxury, boasting wool carpets, exposed beams, a timber-panelled ceiling, and exposed brick. The sash picture windows flood natural light and deliver picturesque views of the gardens. You'll also find a huge dressing room and an ensuite bathroom with frameless shower and glass top vanity.
Three additional bedrooms offer comfort and style, each with wool carpets, built-in robes, and blinds.
The outdoor spaces are equally impressive. A garden shed provides ample storage, and a netted vegetable garden and separate raised garden beds are perfect for growing healthy nutritious food. The irrigation system ensures that your garden stays lush and vibrant with 44,000 litres of underground tank water available. A chook run adds a touch of country living in the city.
The tiled pool area is a true oasis for endless enjoyment on hot summer days. The large outdoor entertaining area offers plenty of space for gatherings and celebrations.
With a land size of over an acre, there's ample room to enjoy the outdoors and pursue your passions. There is easy access to the Yarra Trail for beautiful walks and bike rides. A large double carport and additional parking spaces ensure that there's never a shortage of parking for you and your guests.
Sustainability philosophies have been incorporated into the design of this home so the home sits in harmony with its environment. Features include north facing windows to let in the winter sun and large eaves to block the summer sun, double glazing on southern windows, and a truly stunning grape vine dappled summer shade over an outdoor entertaining area.
With one of Lower Plenty’s most exclusive addresses, you’re within easy reach of Heidelberg, Templestowe, Eltham, and metro Melbourne- along with a choice of excellent - schools including buses to Eltham College and Carey Baptist Grammar.
This example of mid-century architectural excellence delivers an enriching family compound in a truly beautiful location – it’s a rare opportunity.
