Overview
Located in the distinguished Sackville Ward of Kew, this expansive family estate exemplifies a harmonious blend of historic charm and contemporary sophistication. Set on approximately 1,313 square meters, the architect-restored Californian Bungalow offers a generous layout with five bedrooms and four bathrooms, providing ample space and flexibility for family living and accommodating guests with ease.
The home's preserved period features, including diamond leadlight windows and ornate high ceilings, create a sense of timeless elegance. These traditional elements welcome residents into a series of formal living spaces—a sitting room, executive office, and dining room—that balance beautifully with the home’s modern additions.
- The state-of-the-art entertainer’s kitchen, equipped with premium European appliances, twin integrated dishwashers, natural stone surfaces, and a large butler’s pantry, anchors an open-plan living and dining area. A gas fireplace enhances the interior ambiance.
- Seamless indoor-outdoor flow is facilitated by café-style bi-fold windows and doors leading to a covered alfresco terrace, complemented by an automated awning and mains gas BBQ, ideal for social gatherings and relaxed family meals.
- The expansive north-facing garden offers privacy with high manicured hedging, featuring a solar-heated pool, in-ground trampoline, and a separate cabana with a bathroom—extending versatile spaces for recreation, work, or additional living quarters.
The sleeping quarters are thoughtfully zoned over two levels, with two bedrooms on the ground floor sharing a centrally located bathroom, while the upper level hosts three bedrooms with walk-in wardrobes and two bathrooms. The master suite stands out with north-facing pool views, a private balcony, a sizeable dressing room, and a luxurious ensuite.
Additional comforts include reverse-cycle heating and cooling, integrated sound system, abundant storage solutions, a powder room, and a large laundry. Parking is available for four or more vehicles, addressing practical family needs.
Positioned within walking distance to convenient transport links and close to prestigious schools such as Xavier, MLC, Trinity, Carey, and Ruyton, this property combines an exceptional family lifestyle with accessibility. The absence of a heritage overlay ensures flexibility for future enhancements.
