8 Harrison Crescent, Hawthorn

A haven of family luxury, this expansive, elevated gem embraces the peace and quiet of its revered river surrounds, providing spacious, sun-splashed living in the most prestigious of Hawthorn pockets. Enlivened by skylights, a soaring, vaulted ceiling gifts a sense of depth and airiness to a magnificent focal area, with an open living/dining space brilliant for winter evenings by the fireside. An oversized kitchen comfortably caters for the passionate cook, with upmarket Smeg and Fisher & Paykel appliances joined by profuse cabinetry and granite-bench space. Hitting its stride in warmer months, a wonderfully broad terrace takes in stunning bushland, skyscraper, and sunset sights, painting a memorable backdrop for morning coffees, afternoon barbecues, and social drinks after dark. Equally adept as a formal dining room, a garden-viewing office proves ideal for today’s professional, while a considerable lower retreat affords welcomed separation for growing families. With its own access to a completely private yard rich with thriving plant life, a lower-level main bedroom boasts a walk-in robe and ensuite with spa bath, while a smart central bathroom services a second, downstairs study/5th bedroom and pair of adjoining, robe-lined kids’ rooms. Further elevated to enjoy truly inspiring city views, a top-level bedroom’s private balcony, walk-in robe, and ensuite combine to offer the perfect visitor’s base, while other highlights include abundant storage, comprehensive heating/cooling, hardwood floors, a double garage, full-size laundry, large wine cellar, and zoning for acclaimed Melbourne Girls’ College. The neighbouring Yarra Trail sublime for Sunday strolls and bike rides under the rising sun, it’s no more than footsteps to cafés, restaurants, Victoria Gardens shops and cinemas, and trams bound for Kew and Camberwell Junctions, the MCG via Bridge Road, and city centre, with elite private schools (including Xavier, Trinity, MLC, Ruyton, Carey, Strathcona, and Scotch) nearby. **If this property is of interest to you, please ensure that you register your interest by clicking on the 'Get in touch' button, so that you are kept up to date with inspections, price changes and similar properties that may be suitable.
