A masterful amalgam of classic and contemporary defines this breathtaking two-storey Golden Mile home, which is awash in serene and stylish spaces and an Insta-worthy elegance.

Footsteps to cafes, restaurants, boutiques and bistros of the bustling village and a short stroll to Canadian Bay Beach and Toorak College, the very best of Mt Eliza living is at your fingertips from this exclusive address.

Beyond gated entry and parklike gardens designed by landscaped architects Linton LaFontaine, the residence boasts a luxe lounge through French doors backdropped by an open fireplace, while the family dining area is flanked by a bay window with bench seating framing the tranquil pool area beyond.

Defined by striking architectural curves, the contemporary kitchen delights with a broad stone breakfast bar, 90cm Smeg oven with gas cooktop, Asko dishwasher and a scullery to make daily meals easy and hosting a breeze.

A choice of glass doors open to expansive wraparound decking to entertain outdoors beneath the sunshine or vine-laced pergola gazing out across the tiled swimming pool and built-in day beds in this resort-like setting.

A third living zone / retreat on the upper level serves the three junior bedrooms, while parents are pampered in the spacious master bedroom with dressing room and dual-basin ensuite.

Resonating with the timeless sophistication of mid-century design reimagined for modern living, the property includes a study off the formal lounge, three additional bathrooms, a sandstone balcony terrace, ducted heating, split-systems, an oversized double garage, concrete sports court or caravan bay and poolside lily pond with water fountain.
