'Waldaira' Grandeur, significance & distinction

A high-side heritage estate with lineage dating to 1892, this commanding, Charles Douglas Figgis-designed residence stands as one of its prestigious locale's most storied and significant.

Perched on an esteemed hillside with views stretching across the neighbouring valley, this remarkable home, set among a vast 1394sqm parcel (approx.), showcases enduring period charisma, with glorious gardens revealing an enthralling Queen Anne Revival-style façade. Beyond a striking entrance tower, focal archway, and wraparound veranda, a calm and considered plan spans two superb storeys, with marble-encased fireplaces, vibrant outlooks of established deciduous trees, and box-bay windows collectively featured across considerable formal lounge and dining rooms. Offering brilliant capacity for outdoor occasions with droves of guests, open-air garden settings surround light-filled living and dining areas, while a modern, skylit kitchen features upscale appliances.

With a quiet lower bedroom/bathroom pairing affording cross-level versatility, a trio of substantial upper bedrooms are handily served by a smart middle bathroom and elegant main-room ensuite, while a broad balcony provides a sublime sunrise vantage. Additional highlights include hydronic heating, extensive storage, comprehensive cooling, a full-size laundry, and double garage accessed via laneway at rear.

A grand and graceful icon beloved by the same family for over 54 years, 'Waldaira' presents inspiring scope to tie timeless character into a visionary reimagining. Footsteps from Sir Robert Menzies Reserve, several tram routes, Tooronga Station, Park, and Village, it's moments from leading private schools and renowned Malvern, Glenferrie, and Toorak Road retail and dining precincts, with the Monash Freeway ensuring easy access to the city centre and Mornington Peninsula.
