Summary: Under Offer
Description: THE DEAL Fully renovated and completely turn-key, this elevated 1930s maisonette delivers 257sqm (approx.) of land-backed South Yarra living - with scale, privacy and a substantial north-facing rear garden rarely seen in this price point and location. Set in a tightly held cul-de-sac just 100m from Toorak zoning, the home combines preserved Art Deco integrity with precise modern upgrades. Solid interwar brickwork, ceiling roses and leadlight doors remain. Everything else performs at today's standard. A bay-window sitting retreat at the entry creates an immediate sense of light and calm - a considered space to read, pause or work, framed by treetop outlooks. Three genuine bedrooms with built-in robes include a master suite with dual Shaker wardrobes and a Carrara marble ensuite finished with Japanese Artedomus mosaics, reeded glass and brass detailing. The central bathroom mirrors this same level of finish and material quality, complete with marble vanity and a full bath. The kitchen, living and dining domain is sun-oriented and garden-facing - defined without being disconnected. Integrated Fisher & Paykel appliances, Carrara marble benches and splashbacks, European oak floors and ducted heating and cooling deliver substance over show. Below, a separate ivy-framed studio opens to bluestone paving and a private lawn -ideal as a fourth bedroom, office or second living zone. A full laundry, additional WC and secure gated driveway with four off-street car spaces complete the footprint. Fulton McNair designed landscaping, silver birch trees and bluestone crazy paving establish presence from the outset. Walk to Toorak Village, Hawksburn Village, Hawksburn Station, Como Park and the Yarra trails. SEALS THE DEAL Blue-chip positioning. Garden scale. Architectural character. Turn-key execution all at a price point hard to replicate. This is a one off.
