An iconic piece of Melbourne history, the magnificently unique, circa 1926 mansion, on a 1,050sqm approx. allotment, that is 'Cloyne', is now available for purchase. Designed by Harold Desbrowe Annear and occupied by some of Australia's most influential families, Cloyne is a home that you will leave you in awe. Inside, high ornate ceilings with gold leaf detailing, gorgeous chandeliers and a grand feature staircase set the tone for what lies beyond. A large wood paneled study can be found to your left, with an impressive size lounge to the right. The family and sitting rooms can be found further in; adorned with parquetry flooring - both with 3 sets of French doors that open out to the magnificent Mediterranean inspired pool cabana and gardens beyond. The kitchen comprises granite bench tops and quality appliances and has access to the laundry and underground cellar. Upstairs, a retreat area opens to a balcony - overlooking the pool, and 5 bedrooms can be found (including a Hollywood-style master with dressing table and his/hers robes), along with 5 bathrooms and an incredible parquetry floored ballroom that has no doubt housed many prestigious dinners over the decades. Down an external spiral staircase, a guesthouse with bathroom can be found, alongside the garage with additional covered driveway parking. Not lacking in modern day comforts, ducted heating and cooling, alarm, ducted vacuum, water tanks and abundant storage can also be found. Here is your opportunity to secure your piece of historic Melbourne real estate, right around the corner from esteemed private schools, trams, shops and the Yarra River.
