1970's inspired Architectural Design in Stunning Nature Surrounds: Cleverly combining the tranquillity of private retreat living with breathtaking nature views from every vantage point, this deceptively spacious & alluring family home designed by the esteemed architect Ken Woolley for Pettit and Sevitt builders, epitomises the natural harmony of 1970s architecture and modern day living. Meticulously built and thoughtfully extended, natural textures and finishes create a peaceful living environment across its very versatile layout that incorporates five spacious bedrooms and three bathrooms (ensuite to master). The cleverly zoned floorplan maximizes its functionality with various living/dining/retreat and work from home domains that benefit from excellent indoor/outdoor connection with two full-width outdoor terraces, inviting peace and tranquillity or effortless entertaining amongst majestic views, towering spotted gums and bird song. Enjoy direct park access from the established backyard, offering instant connection to parklands and trails at Hyde Park through to the Yarra River and Willsmere Park.

The stylishly renovated kitchen emphasizes practicality and functionality, featuring integrated appliances, combination ovens, and cork flooring, seamlessly adjoining a separate light-filled dining room. Soaring windows and original western red cedar ceiling add character and charm throughout, plus brand-new wool berber carpets, ducted heating, evaporative air con, a separate laundry, huge underground basement storage/wine cellar and generous off-street parking ensure modern comfort and practicality.

Superbly positioned within a quiet, community-minded street and zoned for Kew High School, residents will enjoy effortless access to city-bound transport, renown Boccaccio Supermarket, prestigious private schools plus Kew Junction shops, popular cafes, and freeway access all within easy reach.

A special opportunity that looks confidently towards the next family to create lifelong memories of their own. Welcome home!

Owners Notes

I grew up in a house like this with cathedral ceilings, lots of light and strong connections to nature so when 19 White Avenue popped up on the market it was love at first sight. It has taken 17 years to peel back the layers and reveal the inner beauty of this house designed by renowned Australian architect Ken Woolley for Pettit and Sevitt.

Only 6.5 kms from the GPO, it's akin to living in the bush. Adjacent to a park, with treetop views from every room and the verandas, the house offers a sense of peace and serenity whilst living in a big city.

We raised our 3 kids here. Three separate living zones and 5 spacious double bedrooms allowed us to evolve as the kids grew and their needs changed. We are fortunate to have quiet streets, great local schools within walking distance and easily accessible bike tracks along the Yarra. It’s nestled in a local neighbourhood with a big heart, lots of kids and an annual park Christmas party.

It’s a short walk to the end of the street to catch a direct bus into the CBD and the Skybus terminal at Docklands.

Boccaccio’s IGA, voted the best delicatessen in Australia 3 years running, is a 5 minute drive away and did I mention its walking distance to Ora Café one of the best coffees in Melbourne?

We’ll be sad to leave this place but all the kids have flown the nest and it’s time to pass the baton.
