Last Listing description (May 2026)

Set within a beautifully maintained 1960s complex on one of South Yarra's most admired tree-lined streets, this impressive residence combines classic mid-century character with a fresh, contemporary feel. Recently repainted throughout, the interior presents with a crisp, inviting finish that enhances the home's warmth and enduring appeal.
What immediately stands out is the remarkable sense of space. The layout feels genuinely house-like, offering expansive living zones rarely found in properties of this era. A good example is having a dedicated laundry room seldom found in similar properties. The generous living room is a true centrepiece, framed by elegant bay-style windows that capture calming leafy outlooks and flood the space with natural light. This curved window design adds architectural interest while creating a serene, open atmosphere ideal for both relaxing and entertaining.
Flowing from the living area is a formal dining room, adding versatility and sophistication to the home. Whether used for hosting, creating a second living zone or establishing a substantial workspace, it elevates both functionality and lifestyle. "Grand bedroom" would be a more fitting name for the main bedroom which almost feels like another living area unto itself. A separate kitchen further reinforces the thoughtful design, offering excellent storage and its own sense of privacy.

The accommodation is equally generous, with peaceful rooms that enjoy tranquil leafy aspects, including a quiet balcony extending from the main space-perfect for a morning coffee or a moment of calm.
Positioned moments from Chapel Street, Toorak Village, Como Park, boutique cafs and multiple transport options, this home delivers an enviable South Yarra lifestyle. Blending impressive scale, refreshed interiors and the timeless charm of its 1960s heritage, it stands as a rare and highly desirable opportunity.
