"Blair Athol c. 1870" One of Melbourne's finest...

Join an elite coterie of custodians when you make one of Brighton's grandest period homes part of your personal history. Passed down through generations of respectful owners, "Blair Athol" c. 1870 holds a significant place in Brighton's architectural and social heritage - standing as one Melbourne's finest and largest estates in grounds of 36,292sqft/3,372sqm approx.
With stunning bay views, uniquely secluded in a Brighton Beach precinct cul-de-sac, this grand property comprises a richly detailed Victorian Gothic mansion with converted stables, double garaging, a glass-tiled pool and floodlit tennis court. Providing a total of six bedrooms and 5.5 bathrooms, this significant property promises uniquely gracious living with three fine formal rooms (graced with bay-windows, marble fireplaces, French doors and lofty decorative ceilings) and a towering home-office/library.
Relaxed family spaces include a casual area around a marble kitchen and a separate lounge linked by a central conservatory, while the separate poolside "stable" complex extends informal entertaining to an unequalled standard. Here, a ground-floor entertainment area with a large bar area, a separate sitting-room and sauna and spa facilities steps up to a first-floor billiard room, while an additional bedroom suite extends use to guest or staff quarters.
Appointed to an elite standard with a marble-floored dressing-room and ensuite for the grand master domain and a unique complement of kitchen appliances (including Miele, Smeg and Aga-style ranges), the home features natural stone benchtops, wide-board timber flooring, hydronic heating, an alarm and an original wine-cellar.
Just 250 metres from the beachfront with Brighton Beach station and Xavier's Kostka Hall even closer, this offering of "Blair Athol" represents a truly historic opportunity to own one of Melbourne's grand estates.
