1/3 Glover Court, Toorak
'Quamby' A Garden Lover's Paradise in a Modernist Icon
In a sea of Palms Springs garden wonder with elevated views of the city, nearby parkland and Yarra River edge, this Sir Roy Grounds designed 1941 3 bedroom town residence is a salute to modernist architecture. A painted solid brick structure retaining its waxed Mountain Ash floorboards, polished quarry tiles, and walls of French windows and fluted glass, this celebrated abode has added some modern touches while staying true to its original footprint and ambience. Gorgeous with its feature floating staircase that highlights the beautiful north facing living room, you can enjoy the warmth of the open fireplace while taking in the beauty of the garden surrounds. Considered to be one of Australia's first designs where the living space and kitchen were linked, the contemporary kitchen has its original delivery window, and features a movable island, white glass Smeg appliances, European laundry and integrated Fisher & Paykel dish drawers and overlooks the relaxing open plan living and dining area. Upstairs has 3 curved bedrooms (built in robes) taking in the city views and glimpses of the Yarra River, a powder room and the stylish bathroom leaves you mesmerized watching the world under a warm shower. Most of all, you'll be in awe of the gardens with the stone walls and the crazy slate patio created from stone on the site, while featuring an outdoor fireplace, the lushness of the tropical beauty and bluestone pathways that meander around the garden leading to a firepit. One of eight yet feeling decidedly on its own, complete with reverse cycle air conditioning, loads of storage and an outdoor shower. At the top of this cul de sac overlooking Thomas Oval towards Herring Island, enjoy walks along the Yarra River, fine dining in Toorak Village, the hidden cafes and Como Park. Near elite independent schools, while zoned for Melbourne Girls' School.
