Taking its place between the calm of the Yarra and verve of Toorak Village, this expansive residence in the Gabor Hubay-designed ‘Belcastello’ epitomises Toorak living. Enduring elegance is met by cultured eminence, while stirring scenery spans treetops to reach the famous city skyline.

One of only ten in its building revered as one of Toorak’s most exclusive, the home stands as a sanctuary away from the bustle. Oversized windows attract all-day light and stage the signature backdrop, with a truly vast living/dining space stepping onto two terraces delightful whether unwinding or entertaining. Distinct from main spaces, an open meals area adjoins a granite kitchen with upscale Miele appliances, while in its own domain, a substantial study caters brilliantly for home workdays.

With the city lights to fall asleep to each night, a superb primary bedroom features a full-size dressing room, additional robe space, and a luxe ensuite with a spa bath and twin basins. An ensuite, robe, and direct balcony access all accompany a generous guest room, while high-grade marble, herringbone parquetry, plush carpets, heating and cooling, security, a large laundry, and pair of basement car spaces elevate the offering.

Both a haven of tranquillity and lifestyle prize on the cusp of the village, it’s mere steps to world-class coffee and cuisine, trendy bars and boutiques, grocers for the weekly shop, Como Park, the Lawn Tennis Club, elite schools, trams bound for Chapel Street and the Arts Precinct, Heyington Station, river trails, and the Monash for easy peninsula commutes.
