Commanding one of the highest vantage points in Balwyn that delivers panoramic views from the mountains to the city skyline, this expansive family residence from the acclaimed Graphos Architects evokes the serenity of a secluded rural retreat while offering effortless proximity to Balwyn’s premier lifestyle assets. A secure driveway winds through beautifully landscaped grounds arriving at this grand modern home that’s privately set on an essentially low-maintenance 1648 sqm approx. allotment.

A stunning multipurpose lounge or study with a kitchenette, bathroom and balcony on the top-floor highlights floor-to-ceiling windows and sliding doors framing breathtaking, never-to-be-built-out views, while just below is an opulent main bedroom suite with a city-view terrace, walk-in robe and a Carrara marble ensuite with a freestanding bath.

Full-height cavity sliding doors create dedicated zones throughout the tri-level interior with a vast children’s wing off to the east including a large lounge room and three spacious bedrooms with each enjoying access to one of two stylish ensuites. The ground-floor layout is launched by huge living room (gas fireplace) and a versatile dining or games room before a casual dining area under a two-level void, a sunken family room and a premium chef’s kitchen.
