Architectural Elegance in the Heart of Hawthorn

Tucked discreetly behind a high timber fence and accessed via a quiet laneway, this sophisticated architectural residence in Hawthorn offers a rare blend of privacy, design excellence, and city-edge convenience. Created by a renowned architect as his personal residence, the home is a masterclass in contemporary Australian living—impressive yet inviting, refined yet grounded in comfort.

At the heart of the home, a dramatic steel-framed curtain wall bathes the open-plan living and dining space in warm northern light, framing picturesque views of the landscaped garden and pool. Designed for effortless living, the layout balances communal and private spaces with elegant precision. The gourmet kitchen, flanked by a full butler’s pantry and separate laundry, anchors the ground floor, while the adjacent master suite includes a walk-in robe and luxurious ensuite with soaking tub. A second guest bedroom, full bath, and dedicated study complete the main level.

Upstairs, a secondary living area connects two queen bedrooms with a beautifully appointed shared bathroom. Throughout the home, thoughtful detailing—like bespoke cabinetry, designer lighting, and expansive glazing—elevates the everyday experience. Outdoors, a curated edible garden provides seasonal produce and a serene backdrop for poolside gatherings or relaxed barbecues under the stars.

Just five kilometers from Melbourne’s CBD, this residence is perfectly situated to access the city’s cultural, shopping, and dining attractions—while offering a private retreat for discerning travelers.
