Fifth Avenue, Toorak

Explore Fifth Avenue, a captivating blend of heritage charm and contemporary flair, meticulously crafted to suit the needs of a modern family while embracing its lush garden surroundings and abundant natural light. This original heritage-listed home has undergone a stunning transformation, guided by a masterful approach to contemporary design.The project’s vision was to honour the home’s rich heritage while seamlessly integrating modern architectural elements. A striking dialogue between old and new unfolds throughout the property, creating a harmonious balance between tradition and innovation. At the heart of the design lies a commitment to celebrating the home’s history while embracing the demands of contemporary living.

The basement, thoughtfully integrated into the site, offers a wealth of amenities, including an eight-car garage, home theatre, wellness retreat with gym and sauna, and a wine cellar—all effortlessly connected to the main residence above via lift access. Natural light floods the basement spaces, with large north-facing windows illuminating the theatre and wellness areas, cleverly integrated into the design around the suspended swimming pool.

Inside, meticulous attention to detail further highlights the interplay between old and new. The kitchen, with its angled surfaces echoing the original architectural lines, stands as a testament to this seamless fusion. Moreover, subtle nods to the home’s heritage, such as the diamond-like pattern inspired by the original leadlight windows, adorn the interior walls and doors, adding a touch of timeless elegance. Fifth Avenue offers endless opportunities for indoor and outdoor photoshoots, providing a picturesque backdrop for capturing your creative vision. Whether you’re seeking to elevate your next photoshoot or filming production, Fifth Avenue promises a unique blend of heritage charm and contemporary sophistication.
