1930's Style Art Deco Grandeur / Grand Art Deco Dame

Renovated by Toorak architect Anthea Bickford and previously owned by notable Melbourne entrepreneur Saul Same of Gloweave, this executive residence employs sweeping Art Deco lines, classic charm and distinctive proportions accenting its grand family appeal. An inspired blend of formal and informal living comprises large sitting and separate dining rooms complemented by a huge family room complete with Ilve stove, marble island bench, butler's pantry and study nook with a backdrop of a north facing rear garden. A timber deck, pergola with retractable awning, solar/gas-heated swimming pool, north-south tennis court and a completely separate studio/retreat provide spectacular scope for large-scale entertaining. A total of six magnificently-sized bedrooms and three bathrooms includes two ground-floor rooms, a substantial first-floor main with walk-in-robe and luxury ensuite, and secondary main with adjacent study, providing plenty of potential to repurpose for additional living spaces if desired. Preserved period features include trademark staircase, wrought iron entry, bay and sash windows, window seats, soaring ceilings and polished timber floors. Additional attributes incorporate laundry, water tanks, two-car garage, ample parking and cellar. Delivering impressive proportions rarely available, this spectacular late 1930's Art Deco dame presents a unique opportunity to acquire one of Mebourne's finest homes in close proximity to High Street, Armadale shops, local parks, Armadale station, The King David School, Grimwade House, Lauriston Girls' and other excellent schools.
