Historic Homestead with City and River Views

This historic homestead in an exclusive riverside enclave is a timeless beauty, boasting river glimpses and city views. 'Elmbank' is a shining example of traditional details combined with expansive design, to create a sprawling family home.

Retaining the integrity and old-world allure of the original residence, the charming façade opens to a warm and inviting interior with gleaming timber floors, VJ walls, ornate breezeways, French doors, intricate leadlight windows, and 3.3-metre pressed metal ceilings.

Configured with three separate living zones, each with indoor/outdoor integration, you can always find an idyllic spot for family time, entertaining and relaxation.

Flowing off the entryway, the living area, dining space and reading lounge capture views of the city skyline and extend to the verandah, where you can soak in the river breezes, spot the Citycats, and watch the city come alive with lights at night. A separate family and dining area at the rear surrounds the entertainer's kitchen, featuring European appliances.

Downstairs, a lounge unfolds to the large rear courtyard, swimming pool and a fire pit with stunning city views. Catering to all-season entertaining and swimming in the sunshine, you will love gathering with guests and unwinding in this leafy green retreat with the city as your backdrop.

Six bedrooms (or five bedrooms and an office) are serviced by three bathrooms and a powder room. Two bedrooms upstairs feature ensuites, including the primary suite.

In an idyllic position, you are only a few meters walk to Mowbray Park, the Citycat stop, cafes and a gourmet IGA.
