9 Earls Court

Positioned in the bowl of a quiet court, maximising sweeping panoramic views, this visionary 1970s home features a striking, multi-faced polygon design, built for the Greek Consulate-General by Mt Eliza builder Robert H Denny. The home was built in the style of the "Round House in Canberra", the Benjamin House designed by Alex Jelinek, which was awarded House of the Year Australia 1958. Having only 2 owners in its lifetime, the current owner since 1973, with maintenance and modernisation, this unique residence will still be stylishly relevant to family-functional contemporary living. Alternatively, a new prestige residence (STCA) would sit well in this outstanding setting, a short walk from Greythorn Shopping Centre, in the acclaimed Balwyn High School Zone. The floorplan features an open living space with an impressive brick OFP and encircled by a wrap-around balcony, plus a separate dining area. Large windows capture natural light highlighting the home's original features including ceiling beams and slate flooring, and showcasing the scenic outlook. The home provides 3 bedrooms at entry level including the main bedroom with an updated, skylit ensuite, plus a family bathroom, supplemented on the lower level by a study or 4th bedroom. The kitchen/meals area is spacious and well-equipped, with peaceful access to a private terrace. Boroondara Park Primary School, shops, eateries and city bus are close by, plus the future convenience of the improved Eastern Freeway, Koonung Creek Reserve, Park + Ride and North East Link. * Mid-century vibe throughout * Original landscaped gardens * Rear courtyard * Split system air-conditioning * Ducted heating * Undercover parking, plus expansive off-street parking
