Description: Magnificently transformed beyond its distinguished double-fronted Hawthorn Brick Victorian façade, this exceptional dual-level residence delivers generous family living with contemporary refinement, positioned steps from Fawkner Park with secure three-car garaging via a peaceful Bunny Lane approach. A formal garden and tessellated verandah lead to a skylit entrance hall where wide oak floors and soaring ceilings extend from front to rear. A formal sitting room features a marble fireplace and built-in robes, making it a flexible option as an additional bedroom. Opposite, the lavish main suite relishes a leafy outlook and original marble fireplace, with substantial robes, including a walk-through dressing area leading to an ensuite that overlooks a Japanese maple, its motorised high-set windows drawing in natural ventilation. The ground-floor bathroom reflects the same refined material palette, with full-height textured tiles and a relaxed, almost zen-like ambiance. Sun-drenched living spaces flow from a fireside reception room into dining and kitchen areas bathed in northern light through full-height steel-framed custom windows. Calacatta marble spans the benchtops and splashback, paired with designer lighting, bronze tapware, and a complete Miele appliance suite, including dual ovens, 900mm flush gas cooktop, knock-touch dishwasher, and integrated refrigeration. Star jasmine climbs the original brick walls of both side terraces, offering a tranquil al-fresco setting for entertaining, each offering direct access through the garage to the park beyond. Wool-carpeted stairs rise to a central living room capturing city and Vogue Tower views through floor-length sheers. Three bedrooms, each with full-height robes and two with Fawkner Park outlooks, share a refined bathroom with a freestanding bath, whilst high-end finishes include double glazing throughout, reverse-cycle ducted heating and cooling, a powder room, laundry, plantation shutters, and designer lighting. Moments from elite schools, including Wesley College, South Yarra Primary, Christ Church Grammar, Melbourne Grammar and within a few minutes of Prahran Market, city-bound trams and trains, Toorak Road's dining precinct and Chapel Street's boutiques, it offers substantial family living with the luxury and placement that define true South Yarra.
