9/840 Toorak Road, Hawthorn East, Vic 3123

Walking distance to Tooronga Village shopping and amenities. A rare opportunity for style, retro-charm and inner-city convenience.   

Set back from the bustle of Toorak Road at the rear of a boutique 13-unit property, this generous two-bedroom, two-bathroom, multi-living space townhouse offers the best of mid-century style and proportions. Low on maintenance, the property offers on-the-doorstep convenience. A once in a decade opportunity for young professionals, young families, or downsizers appreciative of its sophisticated aesthetic. 

With floor-to-ceiling glazing, the light-filled accommodation provides generous spaces across two floors and an open mezzanine. Fully renovated in keeping with its origins and updated with ceiling fans, A/C, and a new heating unit, the immaculately presented double brick property offers a full-size kitchen appointed with Bosch appliances. Generous bedrooms include new built-in robes for ample storage – with the mezzanine area offering space for a possible 3rd. A two-car carport secures vehicles.

Outdoors, the ground floor deck with built-in seating and BBQ area provides easy entertaining, while an upper balcony offers expansive rooftop views across proximate parklands and the Gardiners Creek bike trail. Parklands offer leisure, off-leash dog parks, playgrounds, and alternate city access. Access to onsite common gardens and lawn is directly via the property’s side gate – presenting back yard amenity without responsibility. 

Approximately 10km from the CBD, transportation options are abundant with Tooronga Railway Station and Burke Road trams both within easy walking distance. The Toorak Road freeway entrance sits at the foot of the hill, offering access to the M1 in both directions in less than 5 minutes. Burwood Highway connects directly to Deakin University’s Burwood Campus, Burwood One and expansive Eastern Suburbs.

Available for purchase for only the third time in 50 years, shopping precincts include Tooronga Village and the Hawthorn East Homemakers Centre, as well as numerous cafes, pubs, restaurants, wine bars and a selection of gyms all within a short walk. Zoned for the highly regarded Auburn South Primary and Auburn High schools, family-focused amenities include Anderson Park and Lewin Reserve along with the Auburn South Preschool at the Anderson Park Community Hub.
