THE DEAL
One of Balaclavas original homes, reimagined as one of its finest. Dating to circa 1863, this landmark residence blends heritage significance with contemporary luxury, delivering a family home of rare calibre and undeniable presence.
Beyond a cobblestone entrance and curated landscaping, a soaring void introduces light, scale and atmosphere. Mechanically polished, under-heated concrete floors, cascading greenery and carefully framed vistas create a home that feels both grounded and sophisticated.
Designed for effortless entertaining, the kitchen pairs Fior di Pesco marble with a sculptural brass rangehood, integrated refrigeration, Bosch appliances and a walk-in pantry concealed behind bespoke pocket doors.
Expansive living and dining spaces are anchored by a marble-clad gas fireplace and built-in bar, while full-width stacker doors connect seamlessly to a crazy-paved alfresco and private gardens beyond.
The main suite occupies its own private wing, complete with walk-in robe, dressing station and elegant ensuite. A fourth bedroom and bathroom on the ground floor provide genuine single-level flexibility, while two further bedrooms and a family bathroom upstairs cater perfectly to growing families.
Above the oversized double garage, accessed via an ultra-wide rear laneway, a fully self-contained studio offers a fifth bedroom, fourth bathroom and full kitchen ideal for guests, extended family or independent living.
Marble and travertine finishes, Yabby tapware, a dedicated study, EV charging, security and zoned heating/cooling complete an extraordinary offering moments from Carlisle Street, Alma Park and leading schools.
