A celebration of mid-century architecture and Japanese-inspired design, Maple House is an extraordinary home that has been meticulously reimagined, honouring its origins while introducing a remarkable level of contemporary luxury. Originally designed by local Architect Tony Gilligan as his own family home, the residence is set amid breathtaking landscaped gardens, revealing a beautiful interplay of texture, light and architectural detail, with expansive floor-to-ceiling windows drawing light into every room.
At its heart, a spacious family room and showpiece kitchen boast a curved island in exquisite Carpathian marble, complemented by matching splashbacks, premium appliances, an integrated fridge and freezer, and custom wine storage. Soaring timber-lined ceilings, brick feature walls and beautiful original terracotta tiled floors celebrate the home's heritage, while a formal dining room accompanies a lounge with an open fire, garden views, an outdoor connection and the soft glow of Akari pendant lights.
Private and indulgent, the luxuriously appointed main suite reveals a fitted walk-in robe, a powder room, and a dedicated home office with custom cabinetry. A skylit atrium introduces a stunning ensuite with a curved walk-in rain shower, marble-topped floating vanity, underfloor heating and a private courtyard.
In a separate wing, three additional robed bedrooms share a designer bathroom, where a coloured freestanding resin bath, a curved walk-in tiled shower, rich tones and bespoke finishes create a beautiful spa-like experience. A separate mudroom with terrific storage opens to the rear terrace and poolside gardens, adding everyday practicality to the home's considered design.
Outdoors, extensive landscaping and beautifully established gardens feature natural rock retaining walls, mature trees and layered planting, creating a lovely connection between the home and its surrounding bushland. A north-facing solar-heated pool and spa with a generous sundeck, along with a sunny entertaining area with a BBQ, pizza oven and firepit zone, provide an inviting setting for social gatherings, while the surrounding lawns, rolling landscape and natural bushland offer privacy and room to explore.
Adding outstanding flexibility, a self-contained two-bedroom, two-bathroom guest residence, converted from the property's original stables, features a kitchen, living area, laundry and verandah overlooking a large dam and lush green pastures. Ideal for extended family, visiting guests or potential short-stay accommodation, it provides a wonderful sense of independence.
Additional features include multi-zone integrated heating and refrigerated cooling, a water tank, irrigation system, a large machinery shed, a double garage with workshop space and a semi-circular driveway providing additional off-street parking. Enjoying a peaceful country atmosphere, the home is conveniently located near Research Central, extensive parkland and the Yarra River, Eltham College, Research Primary School, Eltham East Primary School and Eltham High School, with Eltham Village and public transport also within easy reach.
