A four-story mansion in Melbourne’s inner eastern suburb of South Yarra has hit the market with a hefty price guide of $13.5 million to $14.5 million.
Askew House, as it’s known, is a 1930s-built Art Deco abode like few others, set in one of South Yarra’s premier streets.
The prepossessing family home is ideally located just a few short minutes away from Melbourne’s iconic Botanic Gardens, as well as Fawkner Park and the myriad shops, bars, cafes and restaurants that line Chapel Street and Toorak Road.
The charming dining area looks out to the arresting pool and outdoor lounge area. Boasting five bedrooms, six bathrooms and a massive garage big enough for four cars, the near century-old home residence perfectly blends charming old-world design cues with a thoroughly modern interior replete with luxurious, avant-garde features.
Expertly mapped out and crafted over a painstaking three year period by talented interior designer Julie Johnson of Foxwood Design, the residence’s interior is striking, utilising a subtle colour palette with splashes of colour for a unique, arresting finished product.
Features of the dreamy Deco home include a theatre room, amazing informal living and dining room, marble-clad kitchen with opulent appliances, smart home functionality and a temperature-controlled wine room. The outdoor lounge area is shrouded in well-established vines and greenery. (Domain) The property’s master suite – a sublime offering that encompasses a large bedroom with private balcony, dressing room and a massive ensuite – is something to behold.
However, all of the house’s other bedrooms are finished to an equally high standard, and all benefit from similarly lavish ensuites.
On the top floor of 62 Park Street, there’s also an enviable rooftop balcony that bequeaths occupants with sweeping vistas of Melbourne’s beautiful city skyline. The mansion’s rooftop balcony gives occupants a great view of Melbourne’s CBD. (Domain) Outside, there’s a desirable alfresco and lounge area guarded by attractive vines and greenery, as well as a swimming pool and spa.
Capping off the property’s positives is a one-bedroom self-contained unit, which scores its own marble kitchen and green-tiled ensuite.
The sale of 62 Park Street is being handled by Kay & Burton South Yarra, and anyone after an inimitable family home in one of Melbourne’s nicest streets can register their interest with the real estate firm.
