A Beautifully Designed Hawthorn East Home Modernised to Reimagine the Victorian Elegance of It’s Past.

This year’s Open Houses welcomes you to the captivating tale of this Victorian gem in the leafy suburb of Hawthorn East that's undergone a remarkable metamorphosis, blending the timeless elegance of its 1898 roots with a bold, contemporary vision.

The exterior, adorned with latticework and elegant Hawthorn brick, sets the stage for the Victorian charm that awaits within. As you step through the front door, the narrative unfolds—every detail, every nook, a chapter in the story of this extraordinary home’s transformation. From the meticulously landscaped garden to the grand interiors curated by Sisalla Interior Design, this home is a symphony of design, where each element harmonises with the next.

This family home captivates with high Victorian ceilings and comforting and textured living spaces, revealing the house's rich heritage, while the thoughfully designed outdoor sanctuary extends the story beyond the walls. With carefully chosen artworks and sentimental family ornaments guiding your journey, the 2024 Open Houses guests are in for an immersive experience—an ode to the past with a modern twist, a sensory exploration of joy, vibrancy, and contemplation, where history and innovation blend in unison.
