Positioned in the prestigious Sackville Ward, this remarkable residence represents a sophisticated transformation of a classic 1959 home, architecturally reimagined by Paul Delaney and complemented by garden design from Ben Scott Design. The result is a contemporary family sanctuary defined by exceptional space, refined finishes, spectacular city views and thoughtfully considered indoor/outdoor living.
The home makes an immediate impression from the moment you arrive, with a sparkling salt-water chlorinated swimming pool with solar heating positioned at the front of the property and framed by beautifully landscaped gardens. An automatic irrigation system ensures effortless garden maintenance, while the pool and outdoor spaces create an impressive setting for family enjoyment and entertaining. A generous lock-up garage provides secure parking, complemented an additional off-street car space. Behind its beautifully renovated exterior, the home unfolds across two impressive levels, offering exceptional flexibility for families, entertaining and working from home. The lower level introduces a spacious lounge with polished concrete flooring, a dedicated study, workshop, additional bedroom and bathroom, creating an ideal retreat for teenagers, guests or those seeking separation from the main living zones. Upstairs, the home comes alive with an expansive open-plan living and entertaining domain. A beautifully appointed kitchen forms the heart of the home, featuring a sophisticated porcelain benchtop, generous preparation space, walk-in pantry and two Liebherr side-by-side fridge freezers. The adjoining dining and living areas are thoughtfully separated by a feature fireplace, while large windows draw in natural light and frame spectacular views towards Melbourne’s CBD.
The expansive balcony provides an extraordinary setting for entertaining against the city skyline. Remote-control electric external blinds and electric internal blinds provide effortless privacy, shade and year-round comfort.
Three bedrooms are positioned on this level, including a luxurious main suite designed as a private retreat. The oversized master bedroom features a substantial walk-in wardrobe, beautifully appointed ensuite and its own balcony capturing a private garden outlook. A further bedroom includes built-in robes and an ensuite, complemented by an additional main bathroom servicing the upper level. Comfort is assured year-round with a combination of electric and hydronic heating, together with refrigerated cooling, while a ducted vacuum system adds further convenience to everyday living. The result is a home that combines the character and proportions of its 1959 origins with a comprehensive contemporary transformation, delivering a rare combination of architectural integrity, scale, luxury, flexibility and breathtaking city views. Its prestigious Sackville Ward setting places some of Melbourne’s most highly regarded private schools within easy reach, including Carey Baptist Grammar School, Ruyton Girls’ School, Trinity Grammar School, MLC and Xavier College, while nearby shopping, parklands, transport and the broader attractions of Kew further enhance the lifestyle appeal. A truly exceptional family residence where architectural design, sophisticated renovation, beautifully landscaped gardens, resort-style pool living and uninterrupted CBD views come together in one of Kew’s most tightly held locations.
