6/23 Seymour Road

Set within one of Elsternwick's most picturesque, tree-lined roads, this architecturally significant townhouse delivers a refined lifestyle defined by space, design & thoughtful contemporary updates. Positioned directly opposite Harleston Park & moments from all excellent Elsternwick has to offer, the three-bedroom residence occupies a rear ground-floor position in one of Melbourne's most iconic buildings. Designed in 1972 by architect Harold Shafer, this residence forms part of a rare & historically significant Brutalist development. Celebrated as a sophisticated, architect-led interpretation of townhouse living, the building stands apart from its contemporaries through its considered design & enduring architectural presence. Home to local furniture & lighting designers behind the iconic In Good Company & Studio Bastiras for more than a decade, the captivating residence has been stylishly & sympathetically updated throughout to reflect a new era of modern living, while paying homage to its significant architectural heritage. Top-&-tailed by brand-new brick flooring & ceilings throughout, the light-filled interior reveals a generously proportioned living & dining domain, complemented by a substantial northwest-facing courtyard with a wrap-around deck & newly laid lawn hedged by established olive trees, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor connection ideal for entertaining. A freshly updated kitchen is spectacularly equipped with a suite of Fisher & Paykel appliances including a double-door fridge, dishwasher & gas cooktop, all seamlessly integrated, as well as a pocket-door power pantry. All three bedrooms are fitted with built-in robes & ceiling fans & are serviced by a newly renovated central bathroom with wet area & separate powder room (plumbing has been integrated to allow for a potential second toilet in the main bathroom). A European laundry, split-system climate control, secure intercom-monitored entry & a single lock-up garage complete this thoughtfully reimagined home. Enjoy all this spectacular park-side spot has to offer with Elsternwick Village down the road, top local schools like Shelford & Caulfield Grammars & St Joseph's Primary just around the corner, as well as the vibrant hubs of Ripponlea, Balaclava & Caulfield all just minutes away.
