Designed by one of Melbourne's most esteemed architects, this distinctive residence offers a rare opportunity to acquire an original 1980s Peter Crone house. Spanning three extraordinary levels, the home is nestled within lush, meticulously landscaped gardens, and backs onto expansive parklands, providing an unparalleled sanctuary where the soothing sounds of birdsong and croaking frogs create a tranquil escape from the bustle of everyday life.

Notable design elements include a striking bridge entry to the north-facing home, which maximizes the benefits of its orientation. The northern aspect allows for abundant winter sunlight to flood the living spaces, warming and brightening the interior, while an overhanging eave ensures protection from the summer heat.

The lower ground floor features a vast, versatile studio or bedroom, with towering southern-facing windows that bathe the space in natural light. The architectural wings of the home enhance privacy while visually expanding the living areas. A sweeping staircase leads to the ground level, where the heart of the home unfolds in a harmonious living space. This includes an original Coonara heater set on a suspended slate hearth, which adds a warm focal point to the adjacent dining area. The chef's kitchen is a study in functionality and style, with an abundance of storage in the spacious pantry.

On the upper level, the master suite is a private retreat, featuring a generous ensuite, an expansive walk-in wardrobe, and access to a breathtaking rooftop sundeck. The enormous deck offers the perfect space for relaxation or entertaining, framed by panoramic views of the surrounding landscape. A thoughtfully positioned second bedroom on the mezzanine level is complemented by a discreet, beautifully appointed bathroom, adding to the home’s overall sense of comfort and convenience.

Throughout the residence, glass brick panels regulate heat and sound, contributing to a quiet, energy-efficient environment. The home is fully insulated and clad in rich western red cedar, cut to create a striking curtain effect. Additional features include hydronic heating, solar electricity, reverse-cycle air conditioning, a spacious laundry, and off-street parking. Stamped copies of the architect's original drawings and specifications are available for future owners, offering insight into the home’s exceptional design.

This property is zoned for the highly regarded Mount Waverley Heights Primary School and Ashwood High School, and is just minutes from Holy Redeemer, Salesian College, Oakleigh Sports and Recreation Centre, as well as convenient transport links, the M1 Freeway, and the renowned Chadstone Shopping Centre.
