34 Yarravale Road, Kew, Vic 3101

Commanding an imposing presence above the street, this iconic contemporary residence was designed in 1956 by Robin Boyd, one of Australia’s most celebrated architects. The spectacular showcase of luxurious finishes, expansive proportions and sun-drenched allure is beautifully set within a breathtaking landscaped garden and pool oasis literally metres from the Yarra River. Behind a high walled garden with cascading water feature and a large entertaining terrace, the inviting entrance hall features a dramatic staircase beneath a “Louvre” style glass pyramid which ascends to the living and entertaining domain. The palatial L-shaped living room with an original fireplace enjoys wonderful leafy vistas through the full expanse of floor to ceiling glass with a majestic Lemon Scented Gum taking centre stage. The premium kitchen is a connoisseur’s paradise with its sleek white benches, full suite of Miele appliances including an integrated fridge/freezer and Zip tap. Ideal for lavish entertaining, the exceptionally generous dining room opens out to a large stone paved terrace beneath a veil of ornamental grapevines and the deep terraced north-facing private garden brilliantly designed with trickling watercourses, waterfalls, a pergola covered marble paved al fresco area and a picturesque solar-heated pool. An abundance of intelligently zoned family accommodation comprises two double bedrooms with ensuites and built in robes and a spacious retreat/rumpus room on the lower level while upstairs, a third bedroom with robes and a designer bathroom complement the opulent main bedroom with marble ensuite, spa-bath and walk in robes. In a tightly held and sought after location close to Yarra River parkland and walking trails, public transport, Kew Junction and prestigious schools, it includes an alarm, video intercom, security lighting, ducted heating, RC/air-conditioning, remote blinds, laundry, irrigation, water tank, ample storage and two basement garages.
