Endless Options in Leafy Studley Park A rare and extraordinary opportunity in an exclusive Studley Park locale, this classic Victorian large family home on approx. 926sqm is ready to be indulged or primed for its next chapter to be written, with extensive rear land and dual street frontage to Hume Street, no heritage overlay in place. Overlooking riverside treetops with enviable elevation, a north-west facing outlook and extensive terraced land at the rear, sit and watch the sun set behind historic Raheen mansion and across the horizon to the You Yangs, or watch as your inspired vision for subdivision, renovation/extension (STCA) or a brand new build comes to life. On a picturesque tree-lined street in an upscale neighbourhood just a walk or bus ride to Trinity, Xavier, MLC and Ruyton, it's also positioned to perfection with a short drive or 20-minute road cycle into city hospitals for medical professionals. Behind a secure private entrance awaits an impressively large and highly flexible family residence, with 3.9/3.6m ceilings, five generous bedrooms, bathrooms on each floor and three separate living areas including a stunning lower ground sitting room opening to a heavenly alfresco area and a sun-drenched family room off the fabulous central kitchen. Extremely spacious throughout, it also features a versatile retreat/home office with its own entrance and concealed kitchenette/laundry facilities, two built-in study zones, a 1000-bottle self-cooling wine cellar, abundant storage options, garage via Hume Street at the rear and the added convenience of a streetside carport. Other highlights include striking timber floors, Carrara marble finishes, hydronic heating, split system air conditioning, automatic blinds and screens, dual hot water system, plantation shutters, three working fireplaces and an extensive vegie garden. A luxurious family residence as is, the opportunity to redesign the future of this sensational property is also waiting to be explored, with indicative plans drafted for extensive renovations and plumbing completed for the addition of a swimming pool. In a sought-after inner-city lifestyle location with funky Abbotsford to one side, sophisticated Hawthorn and Kew to the other and all of Studley Park's cycling, walking and rowing options, the possibilities will be limited only by the imagination!
