Grand in scale and rich in historical character, this landmark family residence delivers a rare combination of timeless elegance, flexible accommodation and exceptional outdoor space on an impressive 1003m2 (approx.) allotment, exceptionally well maintained and immediately comfortable with exciting scope to further renovate, reimagine or explore future development potential (STCA).
Introduced by a commanding street presence and a wide return verandah, interiors immediately reveal the craftsmanship of the era, where soaring decorative ceilings, leadlight windows, original fireplaces, rich timber detailing and beautifully preserved hardwood floors create a home of warmth and distinction. A grand formal lounge and equally impressive dining domain set a refined tone for entertaining, while the home’s adaptable layout continues with a dedicated home office and two bedrooms positioned alongside an updated two-way bathroom. Upstairs, three additional bedrooms are accompanied by a central bathroom and large retreat area, creating an ideal zone for growing families seeking both connection and privacy. At the rear, everyday living unfolds with ease through a lower-level lounge room and substantial kitchen and meals domain, before extending outdoors to a wide deck and entertaining terrace overlooking an expansive backyard framed by established greenery. Additional features include a full laundry, powder room, extensive storage, carport accommodation and generous off-street parking via a long private driveway.
Positioned within one of Kew’s most tightly held pockets, footsteps from leading private schools, parklands, transport options, Kew and Hawthorn’s shopping and vibrant café precincts, this is a significant family opportunity that’s increasingly rare to find where period grandeur, immediate comfort and future potential align beautifully!
