"Strathroy", do you come with Ferrari?

Hawthorn East or bust!

Property Summary

Category: House
Bedrooms: 6
Bathrooms: 6
Garage: Double
Close to: Melbourne: 8km (direct line)
Hawthorn East is a gorgeous inner suburb of Melbourne, plenty heritage homes, not so many this size. Although inside it's not the stylish home
I usually chase, I think it is overall an amazing property.


And who can resist a house that is owned by someone who owns
TWO Ferraris!

(is that carpet on the garage floor???)

You will have to forgive my sports car amateurish attempt at identifying these cars, Ferrari? Lamborghini?
(did I even spell it right?)





Nice ceiling beams!



Def love the little boys room!



The Home Theatre could use a bit of a freshen up!
(then again, at least they've got one!)




hmmm, as A-M would observe - where's the pool fence!!!
(gee you'd think they'd be able to afford safety wouldn't you!)






AND here's the master plan in case you wanted to go build your own version!






AND what did the Agent say!

"Strathroy"

The downstairs main bedroom is the definition of opulence, with a fully fitted WIR, immense marble ensuite & an intimate retreat with kitchenette. Upstairs 4 large bedrooms 2 with ensuites and 1 central bathroom.
