14 Carnsworth Avenue, Kew, Vic 3101

Serenely nestled at the end of an exclusive Studley Park cul de sac, this celebration of mid-century architecture designed by Geoffery Danne was on the front cover of the 1957 House and Garden magazine. Now brilliantly renovated, this remarkable home retains all the signature elements that make mid-century design so sought after.
Beyond the distinctive exterior, crazy stone paving flows through the double carport and into the welcoming entrance hall. Overlooking the glorious garden through movable vertical louvres, an expansive living room bathed in northern light features an open fire, a double height void and timber floors. The cosy casual dining area and sleek gourmet kitchen appointed with stone and stainless-steel benches and Gaggenau and Siemens appliances opens out to a large northwest-facing deck and the beautifully landscaped gardens designed by Damon Fuhrer. A separate formal dining room with a stone feature wall opens to a private courtyard, ideal for pre-dinner drinks. A versatile 5th bedroom or rumpus/media room on the ground level overlooks a second sunny courtyard. A striking timber and steel suspended staircase leads up to the stunning main bedroom with a designer ensuite, freestanding bath and built in robes, two additional robed bedrooms, a stylish bathroom and a home office or 4th bedroom with a west-facing sun-terrace offering leafy views.

Just a short stroll to Yarra River walking trails and parks, trams, Kew Junction’s shops and restaurants and prestigious schools, it includes an alarm, CCTV, hydronic heating, RC/air-conditioners, powder-room, laundry, irrigation, ample storage, under-house cellar/workshop and double carport.
