12 Selborne Road, Toorak, Vic 3142

Enviably positioned between Toorak and Hawksburn Villages, this magnificent c1917 period residence spans a generous single level, where original Art Deco elegance carries through a light-filled contemporary update, framed by a beautifully established designer garden on a 727sqm landholding (approx.), with redevelopment potential (STCA).

Soaring high ceilings preside over the broad entrance hall, which leads past two reception rooms/studies with uniquely designed custom joinery ideally suited for working from home. Leading off the wide passage with polished floorboards is a spacious sitting room which could be used as a teenager’s den or fourth bedroom.

A gas fireplace in each of the living areas adds depth and warmth to the expansive layout, including the sun-drenched open-plan family domain to the rear, where garden connections emphasise a serene and inviting indoor-outdoor flow via French doors. The striking stone-finished kitchen, equipped with Miele and St George appliances, sits centrally between informal and formal zones, opening the entire area onto a bluestone-paved wrap-around terrace that forms a private al-fresco dining setting bordered by manicured greenery.

A lavishly proportioned main bedroom with leafy garden aspects leads through a gallery of robes to a marble-detailed ensuite, while two further double bedrooms, each with full-height robes, are served by a central family bathroom and separate powder room. This home features a storage-rich laundry, an expansive attic and hoist for easy access, hydronic heating and ducted cooling.

The security alarm and external CCTV, NBN connections throughout the house, and an intercom entry have all been recently installed.

The enthusiastic gardener can rely on the automatic irrigation, while storing their tools in the dinky shed that matches the house.

The motorised gates provide secure parking for two cars.

This extremely well-maintained family home offers a prime development opportunity in one of Toorak's most prized pockets. With 727sqm (approx.) of land and a broad street frontage, this is a prospect not to be missed.
