Embracing the old-world charm and grandeur of yesteryear in a lush garden setting on nearly three magnificent acres (approx. 10,900m2), this is a once in a lifetime opportunity to secure an iconic, heritage-listed estate on arguably Berwick’s finest street. Privately positioned behind a picturesque Cypress hedge at the end of a tree-lined driveway with a resort-style swimming pool, spa and self-contained guest house, ‘Burnbank’ (Circa 1854) commands attention with its stately facade, front veranda and period features. A formal entrance, handmade leadlight windows, traditional fireplaces and soaring ceilings with ornate cornices and ceiling roses are hallmarks of this stunning residence, complemented by multiple living zones, a well-equipped kitchen and a vast sunroom with dramatic floor-to-ceiling windows that frame panoramic tree views. Well designed for a large family, five of the seven bedrooms include ensuites and the other two share a central bathroom, while the separate cottage is perfect as parent/in-law or guest accommodation. The enticing outdoor area presents space for you to bask in your own private oasis where you can entertain by the sun-drenched pool, relax in the gazebo or under the shade of a mature tree and watch children explore the established grounds. A double garage, shed with 3-phase power, central heating, split-system air-conditioning and ducted vacuum are among other inclusions. Steeped in history, ‘Burbank’ was the former home of Australia’s first Olympian and gold medalist, Edwin Flack, who won the 800m and 1500m running events in Athens, Greece in 1896. Surrounded by multi-million dollar homes and providing easy access to shops, transport and quality schools just 40 minutes (approx.) from Melbourne’s CBD, this extraordinary offering delivers an exceptional lifestyle and the unique opportunity to secure your very own piece of local history.
