Spacious Victorian Family Home with Pool in Leafy Hawthorn

An established Victorian family home offering space, character, and a reassuring sense of ease in one of Hawthorn’s most coveted wide, leafy streets.

Set on Scotch College Hill, this substantial residence is a gracious and well-loved home, ideal for families seeking a comfortable holiday stay or a longer-term base while life is in transition. While not new or highly styled, it offers something far more valuable for extended stays: generous proportions, multiple living zones, and a layout designed for real family living.

Inside, the home unfolds across two levels with a blend of formal and informal spaces. Wide hallways, multiple living areas, and thoughtfully arranged bedrooms allow everyone to spread out and settle into a natural, relaxed rhythm. The kitchen and bathrooms have been updated for everyday functionality, while furnishings reflect the warmth and authenticity of a lived-in family home rather than a hotel setting.

The open-plan kitchen, dining, and family room overlooks the garden and outdoor entertaining area, creating a natural hub for daily life. French doors open onto established gardens and a landscaped, lagoon-style in-ground pool with a rock formation, perfect for splashing around on warmer days or simply relaxing by the water. A herb garden and lemon tree are available for guests to enjoy when in season.

Upstairs accommodation is particularly well suited to families and groups, with multiple bedrooms offering flexible bedding configurations. The main suite is generously proportioned and includes an ensuite, walk-in robe, and private balcony overlooking the rose garden (particularly stunning when in bloom). Additional bedrooms share access to a rear balcony, and a retreat space provides a welcome area for children, study, or quiet downtime.

Outdoors, the home offers rare practicality for inner Melbourne. A secure, gated driveway provides off-street parking for up to four cars, with additional on-street parking available nearby.

This location is exceptional. Restaurants, cafés, and boutiques along Glenferrie Road and Camberwell Junction are an easy stroll away, while the Rivoli Cinema, parks, playgrounds, and bike trails are close at hand. Trams at the end of the street provide direct access to the CBD and Melbourne’s sporting precinct, with train stations also within walking distance. The city is just eight kilometers away, making daily commutes or spontaneous outings effortless.

Calm, dependable, and quietly elegant, this is a home that understands family life, longer stays, and the importance of feeling grounded. It offers space, location, and a genuine sense of home.
