Hawthorn East VIC 3123

On the revered Harcourt Estate, one of Melbourne's finest homes, Ellerslie, designed by renowned architect John Beswicke, and built in 1891, presides over nearly an acre of manicured grounds. An exquisite renovation has sensitively restored and updated a collection of impressive living spaces, bringing a new level of sophistication and luxury to contemporary family living in this distinguished residential pocket.
The elegance of the era will astound and inspire. Set within approximately 3,340sqm, a sweeping driveway introduces a timeless faade and gothic style tower, matched by beautifully preserved period features within, such as stained glass windows, high ceilings, opulent fireplaces and refined timber and parquetry floors.
Establishing the perfect setting for large scale entertaining and intimate gatherings, the vast formal sitting and dining rooms feature plenty of natural light with a view to the fountain and gardens to the north. The family living room comes complete with a beautifully equipped kitchen with a suite of high end appointments, a wonderfully crafted dining zone and relaxed sitting area, opening to the sunroom and glorious pool and spa. Views to the city skyline, two elevated terraces and five bedrooms, all including ensuites, complete the first floor.
