Toorak, VIC 3142

This exceptional ground-floor apartment, known as FourNineEight, represents a rare opportunity to acquire one of only two bespoke residences created through a collaboration of Melbourne's leading design and construction experts. The apartment is designed by the renowned Tecture Architecture, constructed by the award-winning Conly Construction, and features landscape design by Paul Bangay. Completion and handover are scheduled for July 2026, offering full-floor living just steps from the vibrant Toorak Village.

Covering approximately 306 square metres of internal living space complemented by 172 square metres of external areas, the residence immediately impresses with its scale and refined design. A striking wall of full-height glass doors blurs the line between indoor and outdoor living, bathing the open-plan living and dining areas in northern sunlight and providing seamless access to a private courtyard garden. This design creates a harmonious balance of spaciousness and intimacy, establishing a tranquil sanctuary in one of Melbourne's most prestigious locations.

The interiors are crafted with a focus on luxury and understated elegance. The palette includes silver travertine, honed stone benchtops, textured walls, and bronze fixtures, all contributing to a sophisticated atmosphere. The layout includes a private study with external access and three generously sized bedrooms, each with its own stone-clad ensuite bathroom. The main suite is particularly notable, featuring a walk-through dressing room and a spa-inspired bathroom reminiscent of a high-end hotel suite. High-quality finishes such as bespoke joinery, French oak timber flooring, plush wool carpeting, sheer linen curtains, and Italian and porcelain tiles further enhance the sense of enduring luxury.

The primary kitchen is a standout feature, equipped with a large travertine waterfall island and a full range of Gaggenau appliances, complemented by a wet bar and ample storage. A secondary kitchen fitted with premium Miele appliances supports effortless entertaining on any scale. The apartment also benefits from lift and stair access, a well-appointed laundry, a powder room, and more than three secure basement car spaces, including a car turntable for convenience. Additionally, a substantial storage room is provided, ensuring practical needs are met with the same attention to detail as the design.

Outside, a landscaped wraparound terrace extends the living space, offering multiple alfresco areas within a meticulously curated garden setting. This outdoor space enhances the residence's footprint and provides a serene environment for relaxation and entertaining.

The location is unparalleled, with Toorak Village just a two-minute walk away. Residents will enjoy easy access to popular dining venues such as Romeos and Cecconi's, as well as exclusive fashion boutiques and gourmet food providers. The nearby Tok H shopping centre, leading independent schools, parklands, public transport options, and the Melbourne CBD are all within convenient reach. In a suburb known for its exclusivity, FourNineEight establishes a new standard for luxury living.
