Overview

This unique property represents a remarkable opportunity, offering two substantial and distinct residences united by a generous and beautifully maintained garden. Positioned opposite Xavier College, this address combines historical significance with modern sophistication, providing a rare multi-generational living arrangement that balances privacy and connectivity.

The first residence, known as Clovelly at 1/170, embodies traditional elegance with a rendered and quoined façade, an arched wrought iron gateway, and a tessellated porch that set an inviting tone. Inside, heritage features including chevron oak flooring, ornate cornices, and marble fireplaces enrich the formal rooms, creating a timeless atmosphere that appreciates classic architectural craftsmanship.

In contrast, the second residence at 2/170, formed from two original flats and now a single expansive home, embraces contemporary design. Architectural highlights such as a floating steel staircase, a glazed void donor of plentiful natural light, and a striking kitchen with black joinery paired with deep red marble surfaces produce a distinctive modern aesthetic. Both homes maintain their individuality while enjoying the cohesive connection provided by the expansive garden nestled between them.

  • Combined, the properties offer six bedrooms and five bathrooms, supplemented by a powder room and two studies, fulfilling diverse family or guest accommodation needs.
  • Multiple formal and informal living areas across the residences cater to a variety of lifestyle patterns and social occasions.
  • The homes feature modern comforts including in-floor heating and zone-controlled reverse cycle air conditioning, ensuring year-round comfort.
  • Four secure car parks are available with additional parking accessible behind the gates, addressing practical daily requirements.
  • A fully irrigated garden enhances the outdoor experience and the overall appeal of the shared outdoor space.

This layout is ideally suited for extended families or those seeking a flexible living situation that can accommodate grandparents, adult children, or guests with independence while maintaining close proximity. The option to lease the second residence adds investment flexibility.

Situated in a highly sought-after locale, the property benefits from proximity to premium schools including Scotch College, Ruyton, Trinity Grammar, and other quality institutions, as well as easy access to Auburn Village, Glenferrie Road shopping and dining, and central Melbourne via Barkers Road.

Such an offering, combining scale, quality, character, and location, is exceptional and seldom available in today's market.
