72 McKinnon Road, McKinnon, Vic 3204

This is one for aficionados of fine design. An outstanding example of contemporary ?Arizona style?, this architect-designed three bedroom, two bathroom home showcases the design detail that makes this era so liveable today. Full height doors, walls of windows, split-levels and a sensitivity to north sun (shown best in a mid-way light-well courtyard) characterise this innovative home.

So ahead of its time, a sunken lounge spills out to a tiered terrace through dual sliding glass doors - creating an indoor/outdoor effect that is the precursor of today?s bi-folds. A separate dining room steps up to create a more formal space, and a streamlined kitchen flowing into a second dining area is dramatically detailed with a fully-tiled splashback wall. Modern comforts are here too, with two well-designed bathrooms each positioned to provide ensuite access, an alarm system for peace-of-mind and central heating throughout.

Even the approx 833sqm gardens have a distinctive contemporary flavour with a carport under the roofline and vast lawns edged by pencil-like conifers, spiky agaves and sculptural bird-of-paradise plants.

A rare find amongst the period beauties of McKinnon Hill, this exciting home is located on the downward slope into the McKinnon shopping strip with the station and College within an easy walk. Architectural & innovative this is an educational opportunity with a fine design pedigree.
