EXPRESSIONS OF INTEREST CLOSING 3RD JULY @ 5.00PM Being offered to the market for the very first time, this extraordinary builder's own residence is a statement of scale, craftsmanship and prestige, occupying an immense 864sqm (approx.) allotment in one of Avondale Heights' most exclusive and tightly held pockets. Positioned within the highly sought-after St Bernard's Estate and surrounded by some of the suburb's finest homes, this palatial family residence spans in excess of 60 squares and proudly sits on a substantial parcel of beautifully level land with a prized north-facing rear yard. Set within one of the widest and most prestigious streets Avondale Heights has to offer, the home combines breathtaking city views, solid brick construction, suspended slab flooring to both the ground and upper levels, and an uncompromising commitment to quality throughout. This is a residence of remarkable scale and substance that is rarely seen and even more rarely offered. Beyond its commanding façade, a truly spectacular entrance immediately sets the tone for the grandeur that follows. A magnificent chandelier illuminates the soaring void, while the stunning curved solid timber staircase creates a centrepiece rarely found in modern homes. The scale is instantly impressive, delivering a sense of luxury and occasion from the moment you step inside. Designed and built with family living on a grand scale in mind, the residence offers six oversized bedrooms, multiple bathrooms and an extensive selection of formal and informal living zones, providing outstanding flexibility for large families, multi-generational living and those who love to entertain. The luxurious master suite serves as a private retreat, complete with ensuite and walk-in robe, while the remaining accommodation is equally generous in both size and functionality. At the heart of the home, a substantial timber kitchen showcases quality craftsmanship that has stood the test of time, featuring granite benchtops, matching granite splashbacks, quality appliances, a large pantry and an abundance of preparation and storage space. Designed for both everyday family living and large-scale entertaining, it seamlessly connects to the expansive meals area and multiple living zones throughout the home. Formal lounge and dining rooms provide elegant spaces for special occasions, while separate family living areas across both levels ensure every member of the household has room to relax and unwind. Soaring ceilings throughout further enhance the sense of openness, while expansive windows capture an abundance of natural light and frame the spectacular city skyline views enjoyed from multiple vantage points throughout the residence. Constructed with solid brick and featuring suspended slab flooring to both the ground and upper levels, the home showcases a level of quality, engineering and structural integrity rarely seen in residential construction today, reflecting the meticulous standards of its builder-owner. Thoughtfully maintained and continually improved over the years, the residence combines enduring craftsmanship with modern-day comfort, including recently installed ducted refrigerated heating and cooling servicing the upper level, luxurious brand-new plush carpets, elegant new sheer window furnishings and a host of quality appointments throughout. Extensive built-in storage, multiple walk-in robes and cleverly designed cupboard space further highlight the practicality of a home created for long-term family living. In an era where many homes are designed around passing trends, this is a residence built on substance. From its solid brick construction and suspended slab design to its grand proportions, extensive storage and enduring finishes including granite benchtops, granite splashbacks and quality timber cabinetry, every element reflects a commitment to longevity, functionality and uncompromising quality. It is a home built to stand the test of time while continuing to evolve with the needs of modern families. Outside, the sheer size of the allotment truly sets this property apart. Boasting a highly desirable north-facing rear yard and an expansive, virtually level backyard, the enormous outdoor space provides an incredible blank canvas for families seeking additional room to grow. With drive-through access from the oversized garage and ample space for a resort-style swimming pool, pool house, outdoor entertaining pavilion, additional garaging, workshop or shedding (STCA), the possibilities are virtually endless. Whether enjoyed exactly as it stands or further enhanced in the future, land of this size, quality and orientation is becoming increasingly difficult to secure. Completing this remarkable package is a substantial garage, extensive storage, beautifully established surrounds and a commanding street presence befitting a home of this calibre. Perfectly positioned within walking distance to St Bernard's College, local parklands, river trails, public transport and Milleara Shopping Centre, while offering convenient access to elite schools, Melbourne Airport and the CBD, this is an opportunity to secure one of Avondale Heights' most significant family residences. Homes of this calibre are no longer built with the same emphasis on scale, structural integrity and enduring craftsmanship, making this an increasingly rare opportunity to secure a true family estate in one of Avondale Heights' most prestigious locations. A once-in-a-generation offering of exceptional scale, craftsmanship and prestige, proudly held by the one family and available for the very first time. Combining over 60 squares of luxury living, solid brick construction, suspended slab flooring to both levels, breathtaking city views, a prized north-facing rear yard, beautifully level land, an immense 864sqm (approx.) allotment and one of the finest positions within the coveted St Bernard's Estate, this is undoubtedly one of the most significant and impressive homes ever
