Elsternwick VIC 3185

Occupying a vast 1319m2 (approx.) with frontages to two prestige avenues, this stately Victorian weaves its substance and heritage into the modern day, delivering cultured luxury across a single storey with the village at streets end.Manicured grounds, iron lacework, and a wrap-around veranda form a private-yet-prominent stance to remember, revealing sweeping interiors where elaborate ceilings soar, craft is exquisite, flow is sculpted, and a family has all the room and flexibility it could need. A marble-floor entrance parts sun-soaked formal living and dining rooms; perfect counterparts to an extended main section unmatched in its capacity to entertain.Full-height windows stage green outlooks from a wide-open family domain, with a walk-in pantry and Miele, Bosch, and Qasair appliances ensuring a stone-top kitchen can cater for any occasion. Sunset drinks are a joy in a raised alfresco setting, while adjoining a kids play area and cubbyhouse, towering palm trees, shaped hedges, and delightful privacy gift a resort-style atmosphere to a feature pool. Headlining accommodation thats unmistakably first-class, an oversized primary bedroom enjoys its own walk-in and built-in robes, leafy views to wake to, and luxe ensuite with a window-side spa bath. A smart bathroom with a second bathtub, extra powder room, and extensive robe space serve two additional bedrooms, while beside an office and third living area, a sizeable fourth bedroom proves ideal as a guests suite courtesy of side access via Staniland Grove.Instantly comfortable, endlessly functional, and accompanied by scope for further future renewal, other highlights include solar panels, marble fireplaces, intricate plasterwork, Baltic pine and hardwood floors, alarm and video intercom, three-car garage with a storeroom and workshop, and backyard pool house with a third bathroom.A privileged position places leading private schools, scattered parks and gardens, and the picturesque Elwood foreshore within easy reach, while only a handful of doors away, Glen Huntly Road offers city-bound trains and trams, boutique shopping, great coffee, diverse cuisine, and trendy nightspots.
