South Yarra

Techne Architecture + Interior Design have skilfully blended period features with contemporary additions, creating a striking family home on an 888-square-metre block.

The cutting-edge kitchen is a highlight, boasting a four-metre marble island, a Barazza cook-top and a walk-in pantry.

“It’s an impeccable family home and for South Yarra the land is an exceptionally good size,” says agent Tim Derham of Abercromby’s Real Estate

Derham will take the property to auction on September 2, where you can expect to pay between $6 million and $6.6 million.
