17 Albany Road

Elegant, sophisticated and private, this timeless Georgian-style home in one of Toorak's most prestigious leafy avenues benefits from its proximity to Toorak Village, transport and a range of schools, but also from its very recent renovation. Offering an impressive balance of formal and informal living and entertaining, this two storey residence features a dramatic circular void finished in wrought iron. Generous, light-filled interiors have chevron oak flooring, pristine white stone finishes in the kitchen and bathrooms and bespoke joinery. The towering entrance hall opens to a fitted study behind French doors, before continuing past the formal dining and expansive formal living, bathed in northern light, and the glamorous powder room to arrive at the informal family domain. The gourmet entertainers' kitchen with white stone benchtops, a full suite of Gaggenau appliances and abundant storage overlooks the informal meals and living which draws in natural light from the north-west facing garden. The upper level is devoted to three generous bedrooms. The luxurious main bedroom suite offers a sublime spa ensuite with his' n' hers vanities and separate shower, and a walk-in wardrobe. The bedroom opening to a private balcony has glorious views of the trees. Two additional robed bedrooms – one with a walk-in wardrobe--also have similarly well-equipped ensuites. Adding to the allure of this executive residence are ducted heating and cooling, the laundry, storage, a watering system, security, entry via fingerprint technology, secure double garage plus additional off-street parking. Occupying this elite location, this home is near both Lauriston Girls' School and Loreto, Mandeville Hall, while other private and public schools are a short tram ride away. Toorak Village boutiques, cafes and restaurants are an easy commute as are Beatty Avenue, Glenferrie Road and Malvern retail and café precincts.
