Positioned on one of the few remaining landholdings of this size and nature, in one of South Yarra’s most tightly held pockets near Como Park, this elegant freestanding, brick-built Edwardian home was built in 1912 to a design by renowned Federation architect Christopher Cowper. Perfectly comfortable now, potential exists to imagine the future, making the most of a generous architectural footprint, grand proportions and beautiful light filled spaces, perhaps embarking on a full-scale renovation in time (STCA). A brilliant garden setting and land size measuring 1150sqm (approx.) includes a sweeping driveway and garaging for two cars. Period fireplaces, vast windows and high decorative ceilings punctuate throughout a generous floorplan where existing accommodation includes formal sitting and dining rooms, both featuring high decorative ceilings, vast windows and delightful garden outlooks. A wonderful main bedroom with adjacent sunroom is flooded with northern light, while two additional bedrooms (one ensuite) and the main bathroom create flexibility. A large kitchen with space for casual dining, walk in pantry, external laundry and WC complete the practicalities. Experience the quintessential South Yarra lifestyle: walk to Como Park, Royal South Yarra Lawn Tennis Club, Toorak Village and the Main Yarra Trail. Geelong Grammar, Melbourne High, St Kevins and St Catherine’s are all within easy reach, with zoning for Toorak Primary School. Excellent transport links via tram or Hawksburn station will take you to the CBD and beyond.
