A landmark offering steeped in all the traditions and character of the Federation period, ‘Alice’ is a solid brick, 1916-constructed, family residence (no heritage overlay) that has been architecturally renovated and extended to present a sensitive balance of period grandeur and contemporary family sophistication, complemented by a private poolside setting designed to embrace the northern sun. Offered for the first time in over 30 years, this is a generational, four-to-five bedroom family home on a prized garden allotment of 919 square metres (approx.) with rear car access, in a premium location that sits right on the cusp of Melbourne’s elite private school belt.Beyond an elegant Federation façade framed by a tessellated-tile return veranda, the home is introduced via a vestibule-style entrance where soaring ceilings, Sydney Blue Gum flooring an open fireplace and a bay window with built-in bench seating all of which establishes an immediate sense of history. Both a formal lounge room and separate dining are traditional rooms, equally rich in character and warmed by open fireplaces.At its heart, the home’s kitchen is appointed with a combination of granite benches and European appliances, all overlooking family living and a second dining area that has been crafted with sympathy for the home’s origins, Seamlessly, the open plan extends outdoors to a vast entertainers’ deck that is oriented to capture northern sun and supervise the home’s in- ground swimming pool and spa.The bedrooms offer generous family accommodation, whilst the bathrooms have each been stylishly renovated and a three car lock-up garage enjoys rear laneway access to add an invaluable layer of practicality to this tightly held Hawthorn East setting. Added highlights include plantation shutters that frame delightful garden vistas in all directions and front driveway parking for an additional two vehicles, plus there are solar power panels.This is a blue-ribbon location just around the corner from Anderson Park and moments from bike paths and Tooronga shops, while Burke Road, Riversdale Road trams, and Tooronga station are easily walkable and Camberwell Junction is nearby.
