In a tranquil family pocket with the best of Bayside right at its doorstep, this extended, enlivened, and altogether exceptional Edwardian delivers family luxury at its most practical and entertainment credentials that are simply second to none.

Past a façade dating back well-over a century, inspired interiors pair inherent elegance with easy-care excellence, creating a warm, welcoming environment for a family to lay roots, grow into, and enjoy for decades to come. With its soaring 3.6m ceiling, elaborate cornices, feature arch, and dark-stained Baltic pine floors accentuating an airy, prestige atmosphere, a wide hallway winds to reach magnificent main sections at plan’s rear. Served by a kitchen boasting a waterfall breakfast bar, 900mm Glem cooker, Miele dishwasher, and plentiful cabinetry, sun-dappled living and dining rooms flow outwards, merging with what is, without question, one of the finest backyard domains to grace the Brighton landscape.

Enclosed by a café blind for year-round use, a decked alfresco steps down to stellar spaces beyond, with a floodlit, full-size tennis court the centre point between an oversized, solar-heated pool and back hospitality retreat with lit-and-irrigated landscaping by Plume Studio, outdoor speakers, a built-in trampoline, and full outdoor kitchen with a gas-plumbed barbecue.

Doubling as a professional’s base or extra bedroom when visitors arrive, a sizeable front sitting room is the perfect complement to accommodation that is both extensive and expansive. Two sets of robes and a smart ensuite enhance a vast main bedroom, while a skylit central bathroom with a bathtub joins excellent robe space in serving bedrooms two, three, and four. A piece of Brighton history-turned family entertainer of the very highest calibre, other highlights include marble and timber-encased fireplaces, hydronic-heated panels and towel rails, reverse-cycle heating/cooling, comprehensive camera security, a shed, laundry, additional powder room, substantial attic space, and electric-gated parking for two cars.

Sharing in the tranquillity of Yalukit Willam Nature Reserve, Elsternwick Park, and Elster Creek literally seconds away, the abode is brilliantly placed for indulging in the thriving retail, café culture, vibrant nightlife, and city-bound trains across neighbouring Elwood and Elsternwick, while Brighton’s elite private schools, Martin Street precinct, and Golden Mile foreshore all sit close by.
