THE DEAL
An architectural treasure poised for a sensational revival, 'Ingleby', an Edwardian masterpiece c. 1912, promises a future as captivating as its past. Designed and built by notable architect W. Arthur Blackett, this grand estate offers an incredible opportunity to blend its architectural pedigree with contemporary family living in a prime bayside location, moments from Hampton Street's retail and dining precinct, Haileybury and St Leonards Colleges, and the beach.
Ingleby's interior is a striking contrast to its modest gated entrance. Immediately, it captivates with its grand sense of occasion; the soaring void of the great entry foyer sets a tone of refinement and sophistication, revealing intricate craftsmanship at every turn. From the sweeping bay windows to the rich wainscotting, and the charming inglenook fireplace, each detail adds to the home's unmistakable air of elegance and timeless appeal.
The home is arranged with formal living and dining rooms, a sun-bathed kitchen with a family dining area, and four bedrooms all on the ground level. Upstairs, a retreat and a balcony 'room' offer a private sanctuary. Practical features extend to a vintage bathroom and laundry, while Ingleby's original brilliance retains its servants' bells, beautiful leadlight windows, and charming window seats. A truly magnificent canvas ready for its next chapter.
