24 Thoresby Grove, Ivanhoe

Compelling Lifestyle Sanctuary By The Eaglemont Border

A hidden layer of architectural artistry unfolds behind the Californian bungalow façade of this remarkable residence where acclaimed architect Sean Godsell has reimagined a classic with a stunning design that's industrial, introspective and inspiring on the prestigious Eaglemont fringe.

Surrounded by landscaped Sam Cox native garden viewed from all angles on a 985 m2 allotment (approx), this unrivalled two-level home with a separate studio is an absolute standout where an aperture-style steel entrance sets a signature tone introducing a sequence of internal walkways, elevated platforms and flexible family spaces.

Natural light filters through walls of storage before an open-plan lounge area with lofty views that extends to three great-sized bedrooms (two with built-in robes) complemented by two large modern bathrooms and a European laundry.

A lower-level study with a desk and storage flows to a brilliant kitchen with Scholtès and Miele appliances that adjoins a stunning family living and dining domain defined by a voluminous two-level void, Jetmaster fireplace, in-situ concrete seating and towering glazing with wide sliding doors.

The exceptional interior spills onto a vast entertainment deck (retractable awnings) beside a steel-caged pond and treed garden that with ambient lighting on sculptural pathways cascades toward a two-room Modscape studio with a powder room offering flexibility as a home office or extra bedroom retreat.

Other attributes include ducted heating, split-system air-conditioning, Nobo panel heaters, alarm system, polished floorboards, balcony and carport.

A compelling expression of creative flair, form and functionality from one of Australia's most respected and highly decorated architects, this captivating residence stands apart from the rest with its depth of design and focus on family.

The blue-ribbon position of this one of a kind home is just metres to Eaglemont Village cafes and train station, while only moments to boutique Ivanhoe shopping and restaurants, grammar and primary schools, parkland, Austin Hospital and the Burgundy Street precinct.
