Inspect Strictly by Private Appointment

Magnificently occupying 2,963sqm approx. of direct Yarra River frontage with private pontoon, pool and north-south tennis court, this breathtaking contemporary family estate is the result of a harmonious collaboration between renowned architects Powell and Glenn, luxury builder Visioneer and Robert Boyle Landscapes.

Taking cues from mid-century architecture, the refined design maximises the spectacular river outlooks through vast expanses of floor to ceiling glass over three lift connected levels. Behind the discreet timber slatted street entrance, expanses of concrete, oak and black steel provide a unified and restful palette throughout. On the street level, the entrance foyer introduces an executive study or library and generous guest bedroom with walk in robe and designer en suite. Both a lift and polished concrete stairs lead down to the living zone where a serene sitting room with built in bar and expansive living and dining room, both with open fires, command picturesque views over the lush, Palm Springs style tropical garden and the river. The state-of-the-art chef's kitchen is an entertainer's dream with its stainless steel workbenches, swathes of Dolomite granite, Miele appliances, integrated fridge/freezer, butler's pantry and temperature controlled cool room. Built in leather seating is ideal for casual family dining. Overlooking the garden, a large BBQ terrace paved with crazy granite is set beneath a pergola with outdoor heaters.

On the river level, there is a temperature-controlled wine display room with fridge, dedicated gym and a palatial rumpus/billiards or media room with bar fridge and dishwasher opening to two undercover terraces. A path through the garden arrives at the self-cleaning solar/gas heated pool and spa and a rustic alfresco terrace connected through fully retracting glass sliders to a sensational pool house featuring a full kitchen, fireplace, RC/air-conditioner, stylish bathroom, outdoor heaters and fan. The mod grass tennis court is on the far side of the pool, while a huge riverside deck overlooks the river and pontoon.

The opulent main bedroom with luxurious en suite, bath and deluxe dressing room enjoys its own space and glorious river and garden views while three additional king-sized bedrooms all with stylish en suites and robes are on the level below.
