An opulent Victorian manor among privileged schools, and primed for development on 1,740m2 (approx.) No heritage overlay.

A decadent blend of Victorian grandeur, contemporary luxury, and palatial proportions, this majestic family manor delivers a lifestyle of opulence and privilege across a versatile five-bedroom, three-bathroom layout. Welcomed by a sweeping driveway and verdant lawns on a sprawling 1,740m2 (approx.) unencumbered site, the home is a private oasis, positioned paces from city-bound trams, Glenferrie Road indulgences, Swinburne University, and Yarra River recreation, and among revered public and private schools including Auburn High.

Enveloped by sumptuous timber floors and soaring 12-foot ceilings, the home reminisces its glorious epoch with ceiling roses, broad cornicing, and a scattering of marble-swathed fireplaces. An opulent ballroom hosts sophisticated functions and en-masse celebrations amid period grace, while a stately formal sitting room with a bright bay window offers flexibility as a music room.

Inundated with natural light from a wall of bi-folding doors, the vast open plan domain accommodates family relaxation and casual indoor-outdoor entertaining. Taking centre stage, a stunning hostess kitchen caters to guests over an extravagant breakfast bar dressed in gleaming timber, while offering St. George appliances and plenty of storage to delight the culinary enthusiast. A brilliant entertainer, the room stretches onto an enormous alfresco patio for lively barbecue revelries, enriched by a sundrenched swimming pool and spa.

Tremendously spacious, a grand master bedroom indulges parents with a walk-in robe and a luxurious spa-ensuite, while three secondary robed bedrooms are complemented with an ensuite and a central family bathroom. Providing a sixth bedroom or home office, the home is completed by a guest powder room, a laundry, and a triple garage and carport, delivering a lavish lifestyle in modern comfort and security today, while offering thrilling subdivision options with no planning overlay restrictions (subject to council approval).
