Originally designed by Wayne Gillespie, one of Melbournes best known and most respected architects, this recently updated three-bedroom three-bathroom low maintenance home with pool shows that good design never goes out of style.

In a privileged pocket close to Toorak Village, it features Gillespies distinctive modern classical style of beautifully proportioned light -filled interiors with absolute privacy and a great connection to the outdoors.

Offering the luxury of space, living areas open to the expansive front terrace and swimming pool, and it has that rare commodity of dual street access with entry from Vista Grove at the rear.

The free-flowing floorplan seamlessly connects the spacious living room to the kitchen and dining zone for easy entertaining, while new fittings and fixtures including new stone kitchen benches, multiple Miele ovens and built-in coffee machine provide a contemporary edge. Full-height glass doors open to the terrace to take the party outside while offering glimpses of the city skyline. A super-sized study, discreet laundry and powder room complete the downstairs.

Upstairs, two substantial bedrooms with built-in robes both have ensuites. The sumptuous main suite includes luxurious ensuite with oversized shower, freestanding bath, dual vanity and a room-sized fully-fitted walk-in wardrobe. Up here the city views are mesmerizing by day and dazzling at night.

Other features of this classic are two garages and pedestrian access from Vista Grove, new carpets, plantation shutters, two gas fireplaces, underfloor heating, cooling, proximity to leading schools, Toorak Village and freeway access.
