38 Pearl Street, Niddrie, Vic 3042

THE DEAL
Contemporary design at its very finest, this sleek and sophisticated residence offers benchmark luxury with easy-living appeal, superbly situated on Niddrie’s exclusive Essendon border.

Imagined and executed by designer Monica Eckhardt, architect Ben Wardle, and builder Batis Projects, uncompromising quality shines across an elegant, expansive interior, emphasising bright, open spaces and real-world practicality throughout. Herringbone oak floors frame a welcoming entrance hall, widening into a sensational back section primed for the regular host. Rays stream through a north-side light court, joining a towering 3.2m ceiling and full-height sheer curtains in fostering an airy, refined ambiance.

The ultimate cook’s retreat, a first-class kitchen provides upmarket Miele appliances, a Zip Tap, fully integrated fridge/freezer, and five-person waterfall island, with a gas fire and fluted-glass bar making for cosy evenings come wintertime. Sliding doors transform the space, with indoor and outdoor areas merging for marquee family gatherings. Pre-fitted beer/cocktail taps, a mains-gas barbecue, porcelain work bench, and extra basin bring hospitality prowess to another level, with a wonderful alfresco and wraparound yard highlighting the larger-than-usual 362sqm parcel.
Four substantial bedrooms give families plenty of room to grow into, with a large lower bedroom’s ensuite and built-in robes giving the option of one-level living. Two generous, upstairs bedrooms are served by excellent storage and a lavish central bathroom, while a luxe master’s ensuite and pair of walk-in robes complement a focal, full-wall window framing stunning sunset vistas.

With enticing style and quality to match, other highlights include striking Tundra Grey Marble to bathrooms, kitchen, staircase, a downstairs powder room, and large laundry, soaker baths and twin basins to both upstairs bathrooms, a substantial upstairs retreat, hydronic floor heating, zoned heating/cooling, a steel entry door with digital lock, and oversized single garage with EV charger.
