390 Glenferrie Road
Malvern

Occupying a magnificent 1,047sqm (approx.) corner allotment in one of Malvern’s most prestigious pockets, 390 Glenferrie Road is a superbly renovated solid brick residence circa 1907, seamlessly fusing timeless architectural grandeur with contemporary family luxury.

Behind its elegant period façade, this substantial five-bedroom, three-bathroom home showcases exquisite original features including soaring decorative ceilings, ornate open fireplaces, leadlight windows and rich period detailing, creating a warm and sophisticated atmosphere throughout.

Recently renovated to the highest standard, with sublime finishing touches by interior stylist Nancy Tripodi of My Atelier, the home has been thoughtfully designed to support modern family living while honouring its historic charm. A flexible and generously proportioned floorplan reveals a series of refined formal and informal living and dining zones, all flooded with natural light and beautifully suited to both everyday living and grand-scale entertaining. At the heart of the home, the contemporary kitchen is superbly appointed with quality European appliances, marble benchtops and generous storage, providing a natural gathering place for family and guests alike.

The second level, complete with lift access, opens to two wide veranda terraces capturing sweeping city skyline views and beyond — ideal for morning coffee or evening relaxation. Five generous bedrooms and a separate study are complemented by three stylish bathrooms, while the master suite offers a private sanctuary with walk-in robe, ensuite, and a light-filled reading nook.

Set within beautifully landscaped gardens with ample entertaining space and off-street parking, the home’s elevated corner position delivers both presence and privacy, being set back behind high fences with primary access via automated gates on Chesterfield Avenue. Perfectly located with Sir Robert Menzies Reserve at the end of the street, and within walking distance to Kooyong Village, Kooyong Station, multiple tram routes, Kooyong Tennis Club and Melbourne’s finest schools, this is an exceptional family address.

Offering a rare combination of heritage elegance, modern comfort, substantial proportions and unrivalled lifestyle amenity, this is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to secure a landmark family home in one of Melbourne’s most tightly held and prestigious neighbourhoods.
