THE PROPERTY

Set on a remarkable landholding in the heart of Mont Albert, this grandiose five-bedroom period home, complete with a separate granny flat, is a residence of rare scale and character. Arched windows, ornate ceilings and cast iron lace speak to its heritage, while two levels of generous rooms offer a sense of luxurious, unhurried living. With a tennis court, pool and self-contained flat

set across the grounds, it is a once-in-a-generation opportunity for families who value space, privacy and a home made for entertaining, all within a leafy, established neighbourhood close to village shopping, parkland and the city commute.

The welcome is unforgettable; an awe-inspiring entrance hall with a chequerboard tiled floor leads to a staircase dressed in a patterned runner, rising past panelled walls toward a tall arched leadlight window that fills the space with soft, coloured light. A lift links both floors, adding ease and accessibility without compromising the home's period charm. The formal rooms retain their original detail. A living room anchored by a fireplace flows into an adjoining retreat, a lovely setting for reading, music or quiet conversation. The formal dining room sits beneath an elegant ceiling

rose, lit by tall sash windows and made for memorable dinner parties and family celebrations. A dedicated office with its own fireplace overlooks the garden, providing an inspiring place to work from home.

Toward the rear, the house settles into a more relaxed rhythm. The kitchen opens through a servery to a casual dining area and on to a family room, keeping everyday life connected and easy. Whether it is a busy weekday breakfast or a relaxed Sunday lunch, the layout works beautifully. French doors lead out to a covered alfresco, where meals and gatherings extend

naturally outdoors, with the garden as a backdrop throughout the year.

Upstairs, the bedrooms are joined by a light-filled sun room and several balconies. The highlight is a timber-floored verandah edged in cast iron lace that sits among the treetops, a peaceful vantage point for morning coffee or a quiet drink at the end of the day. The bedrooms offer generous proportions for every member of the family, while the sun room provides a flexible space to

unwind, study or play.

Outside, the grounds are just as impressive. Rose-lined garden beds frame a manicured front lawn, with paved paths leading to a central fountain that creates a graceful sense of arrival. The tennis court and pool turn the backyard into a private recreation retreat, perfect for weekend matches, summer swims and entertaining on a grand scale. The separate granny flat offers wonderful flexibility for extended family, visiting guests, a teenage retreat or a home studio.
