About this property

Richly steeped in an illustrious history harking back to its glamorous art deco origins, this much cherished six-bedroom family entertainer celebrates breathtaking upper-level water views and is set within a glorious garden oasis with an in-ground fully tiled swimming pool and mod-grass northsouth tennis court. Sprawled across almost half an acre (1905* square metres), the home is positioned at the end of a prestigious, blue chip 'Golden Triangle' cul-de-sac, highly coveted for its tightly held row of equally exceptional five-star resort-style family estates, just moments to the sands of Brighton Beach and in the famous, tennis court precinct. Architecturally renovated and extended over the decades to match the grandeur and style of the original residence, the stucco-rendered solid brick home's storied past includes having hosted tennis champions, while a vintage streetlamp that once illuminated a Collins Street pavement, now shines on century-old Poplar in the front garden. Retaining all the charm of yesteryear, the ground floor formal rooms, including the entry hall, a lounge/sitting room, dining/music room and guest bedroom with shower ensuite are resplendent with soaring ceilings, ornate cornices, and decorative plasterwork, all beautifully painted in harmonious pastel hues. There are another two fitted bedrooms downstairs, one with an external access door and ensuite, and the original tiled bathroom. The central timber kitchen is positioned for gourmet entertaining and adjoins a meals area and large rumpus room with access to the undercover alfresco terrace and rear lawn, perfect for croquet, backyard cricket and large family and friends' gatherings. Upstairs, the grandeur is showcased in the master suite with a box bay window and built-in window seat framing a glorious blue-water backdrop with the property's iconic Washingtonia palm tree in the foreground, while the spa ensuite is resplendent with the enduring beauty of Norwegian Rose marble. Also upstairs is a large living area/retreat, a bar/kitchenette, a study, sea view balcony, a powder room, and the fifth bedroom with city skyline vistas. Additional features include a poolside cabana with kitchenette and a powder room, custom fitted cabinetry throughout, plenty of storage including under-stair storage, central ducted heating plus split systems, and off-street parking for multiple vehicles. Ideally located to enjoy all the privileges of Bayside living, it is a short walk to leading schools including St. Leonards and Haileybury colleges. City bound trains can be accessed from both Brighton Beach and Hampton stations, and the shopping and cafés of Hampton Street and Were Street village, Brighton and Hampton beaches and the Bay Trail are also an easy walk away. Once-in-a-Lifetime Grand Bayside Family Estate, with Bay views, court and pool in one of Melbourne's premier residential streets.
