Exclusively positioned on a prized corner allotment directly opposite the Royal Botanic Gardens, this magnificent Victorian landmark residence is replete with grandeur, elegance and a celebrated history hosting dignitaries and royalty. Beautifully presented throughout, its sun-drenched and serene dimensions provide a unique setting for a privileged Domain Precinct lifestyle.

Behind a high walled garden, the marble entrance hall introduces a spectacular living and dining room of breathtaking proportions with ornate 4m ceilings, a roaring open fire, custom-made light-fittings and timber parquetry floors. Formally a ballroom, it has played host to numerous Melbourne society events. A pair of French doors open out to a private bluestone paved courtyard capturing wonderful afternoon sunlight. With a cosy built in breakfast nook, the superb galley style gourmet kitchen is perfect for catering and entertaining with its granite and stainless-steel benches, soft-closing cabinetry, European appliances and commercial range hood. Inviting relaxed family living, the stunning sitting room beneath a soaring arch is bathed in northern light through a sweeping curve of bay windows.

Upstairs an opulently proportioned main bedroom suite comprising a marble en suite, kitchenette, walk in robe, study nook and home office opens to a large north-facing balcony commanding glorious leafy views of the gardens. There are two additional double bedrooms with built in robes, a second bathroom and in a separate wing a spacious sunlit studio or 4th bedroom. On a lower level there is a heated indoor pool surrounded by travertine paving.

Literally metres to the huge range of cafes and restaurants on Domain Rd, Toorak Rd’s boutiques, Anzac station, elite schools, trams, the Yarra River, MCG and Fawkner Park, it includes an alarm, a lift, security intercom, ducted heating, upstairs air-conditioning, powder-room, laundry, irrigation, ample storage and internally accessed double garage from Leopold Street.
