23B Ferndale Road, Glen Iris, Vic 3146

Commanding an extraordinary parkfront position directly adjoining the Ferndale Trail, this architect-designed three-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bathroom residence by award-winning Jackson Clements Burrows is a breathtaking statement of contemporary design. Surrounded by native birdlife and towering eucalypts, its distinctive architecture is complemented by oak, brick and honed granite, with oversized glazing capturing the greenery beyond from the moment of entry.

Open plan living and dining take full advantage of the park outlook, with a wood-burning fireplace and custom built-in cabinetry adding warmth and dimension to the main entertainment domain. The kitchen and scullery are finished in granite and appointed with a suite of Miele appliances and an integrated refrigerator, while stacked sliding doors extend the entire space to a decked alfresco area immersed in the surrounding greenery. With gated access directly to the Ferndale Trail, the park becomes an extension of the outdoor setting, creating a tranquil sanctuary for entertaining, relaxing and making full use of the natural backdrop.

A second living area sits beneath soaring ceilings upstairs, adjoining a large office area with integrated storage, a fitted desk and high-set north-facing windows overlooking the park. The main bedroom relishes the treetop view, opening to a screened balcony for privacy and tranquillity, with fitted walk-in robes and an ensuite featuring a freestanding bath, dual vanity and walk-in shower. Two additional bedrooms each include built-in robes and private ensuites.

Positioned moments from Ashburton Village, Ashburton Station, popular cafés, buses and leading schools, with the Ferndale Trail at the back gate, this impressive residence offers exceptional ease in a remarkably tranquil locale, complemented by a double remote garage with internal entry and storage, parking for two additional cars, solar power with battery, double glazing, reverse-cycle heating and cooling, secure video intercom, alarm and extensive storage.
