“St Minver” a Contemporary Romantic

Property Summary

Category: HouseBedrooms: 5Bathrooms: 4Garage: DoubleClose to: Melbourne: 10km (direct line)

What a classy facade!
This home must be even better in person…


I think this traditional paving is absolutely gorgeousl…


And inside the colours are soft, almost feminine…
Just Beautiful to me! Have a look at the gorgeous dining room wall feature below…


Beautiful timber floors, it’s advertisement doesn’t list a price for sale, I’m guessing around $6 Million Big Ones!



There’s that splash of red I’ve been seeing around lately in bedrooms I love – maybe I’d better do that
in my own bedroom now!





AND What did the Agent have to say about it!

“St Minver” – Gracious Golden Mile living

This is gracious living on the Golden Mile’s most charming tree-lined boulevard, renovated with a fine appreciation for the detail that makes these substantial period originals so desirable on land approx 1002sqm/10,785sqft. This five bedroom plus library-sized home-office, 4 bathroom home showcases fine formal rooms including a full-width lounge opening to a deep front verandah above broad lawns, and a sophisticated dining room – each with a sandstone fireplace.

Designed to fit a family, casual living flows from a lounge area featuring a fireplace faced full-height with Victorian limestone, to a dining area with french doors to paved pool-side gardens set with a dual-heated, glass-fenced pool.

Accommodation is equally family-wise, with a fine first-floor master-suite featuring dual WIRs (one beautifully fitted and size as a full dressing-room with bay-window-seat), plus an flexible fifth bedroom complete with sitting-area and ensuite in a separately accessed wing – perfect to serve as guest or nanny quarters or as accommodation for dependent in-laws or independent children.

Finished with an eye to enduring quality, this elegant home features a rich mix of Australian hardwood floors and fine stones including specially-imported Northern Italian granite for the Smeg kitchen, Victorian limestone for the bathrooms, and sandstone fireplaces for the formal rooms.

Appointed to beyond-prestige specifications (with zoned sound system servicing internal living and outdoor entertaining areas, ducted zoned reverse-cycle air-conditioning/heating, ducted vacuum, video-intercom, alarm and 15,000L underground –water-storage), the home also includes family-wise touches including fitted wine-cellaring, bedroom roof-storage and through-access double garage with pool-facility WC.

Set behind auto-gates just a three minute stroll from the beachfront, this is pure Golden grace.

WOWEE

    This is wonderful – I suspect it would be on the large side for my needs, but I love the style.
