1/76 Molesworth Street, Kew
This house in brutalist form feels both strong and soft; its concrete is softened by greenery that extends from tranquil gardens to the Studley Park area. Multiple levels frame expansive views of the treetops, while expansive terraces draw the light-filled interiors into the open air. “The west terrace is my favorite—fiery sunsets, oysters on the table, and bats disappearing into the night sky,” says the agent.
10 Kent Street, Ascot Vale
This mid-century home proudly wears its retro spirit, from its fluted glass entryway to its hardwood floors. Light-filled rooms radiate beautiful energy, while the colorful cabinets and vinyl knob countertop in the kitchen bring a comforting nostalgia. “A north-facing backyard and a detached bungalow add to its appeal for growing families or extended families, with trams into the city just around the corner,” says the agent.
301/6 Saxon Street, Brunswick
Concrete ceilings, elegant finishes and a simple palette set the tone for this stylish Brunswick apartment. Life flows easily here thanks to the kitchen, smart work corner and smart built-ins. “From the private balcony to the shared rooftop terrace, looking out over the city skyline from the rooftops of Brunswick is a joy—close enough to feel the energy, far enough to enjoy the tranquility,” says the agent.
102/10 St Georges Road, Elsternwick
The kitchen of this first-floor retreat invites effortless entertaining: You can imagine plates of tapas spread out on the marble island, with friends perched on stools, wine glasses in hand. As northern light fills the interiors, sliding doors open to a lush terrace that extends outdoor entertaining. “Carter & Lovett’s morning coffee is excellent here, but the sunsets are even more beautiful; the colors over the bay are magical,” the rep says.
6 Verdun Grove, Reservoir
Located on a leafy corner block, this character-filled home makes the most of its lush surroundings, with large windows illuminating the interiors with golden light. Updated for modern convenience but staying true to the spirit of the ’50s, the retro kitchen shines with a generous island that doubles as a social hub. “The first thing that drew sellers here was how livable the house looked, and 22 years later it still feels the same,” the agent says.
32 Blackney Road, Gurdies
At this 45-hectare Westernport Bay resort, every day is a sight, from morning coffee as the sun rises over French Island to golden sunsets illuminating the bay. Designed for ease of use off-grid, the residence captures the same panoramic view from start to finish. “For six years the property has provided vendors with space to operate their breeding Wagyu business and the luxury of a private coastal reserve,” says the agent.
23 Beverley Hill Road, Somers
Run by a single family for nearly 40 years, Mabuhay was once a weekender, then an artist’s studio, and more recently a beloved full-time home. Light-filled interiors surround native gardens where days are lived through painting, family gatherings and seaside rituals. “Even the wildlife feels like part of the family, from resident duck Leunig swimming in the front pond to blue tongues basking in the sun,” the agent says.
