5 Tyalla Crescent, Toorak, Vic 3142

Seclusion and scale converge in this masterfully designed Marcus Martin family home, an address of distinction where architectural vision meets the grace of a long-held estate. Steps from Melbourne’s finest schools and the picturesque Yarra River trails, this north facing, six-bedroom, four-bathroom residence, crafted in collaboration with esteemed architect David Hicks, unfolds across three exceptional levels, balancing grandeur with an innate sense of warmth and livability.

The refined luxury continues through high fences, a sweeping circular driveway and a verdant portico entrance. The Versailles-pattern oak flooring sets the tone for an interior of impeccable craftsmanship, where high ceilings and expertly framed garden views create an immersive atmosphere. Formal and casual living zones intertwine seamlessly, with a front sitting room spilling onto manicured gardens via French doors and a home office, while an open-plan expanse at the rear draws the outdoors in. Heated concrete floors with oak inlay, an open fireplace, and sleek finishes underpin the dramatic scale of the living and dining rooms, complemented by a chef’s kitchen with high-end European appliances, integrated refrigeration, and a butler’s kitchen designed for effortless hosting. Alfresco excellence extends beyond the bi-fold glass, where an infinity-edge gas and solar heated pool and spa, a covered patio, and lush landscaping form a private retreat that thrives throughout all seasons.

Upstairs, six robed bedrooms offer abundant accommodation, accompanied by an elevated living zone with panoramic vistas over Scotch College and the surrounding mountain ranges. The indulgent main suite opens to a north-facing treetop terrace, featuring a luxe ensuite and dressing room with fitted storage and a statement island bench, ideal for the finest designer items. Comprehensive appointments such as ducted heating and cooling, hydronic underfloor heating in the main living room, basement garage with gym space, additional off-street parking, a substantial laundry with a chute, a powder room, and extensive security systems underscore the home’s meticulous detail. Walking distance to Heyington Station, St Catherines, St Kevins and Scotch College and close to Kooyong and Toorak Villages, this residence is of rare calibre that offers sanctuary and sophistication and privacy in equal measure.
