Multi-Level Luxury Home

Situated on a tight Melbourne suburban block and catering for a large family, this new Hedger Constructions 4-level custom home is a masterclass in refined family living that balances architectural presence with warmth, functionality and effortless liveability.

Given the home’s scale, careful planning ensured it would sit comfortably within its neighbourhood. By positioning one level below ground and thoughtfully locating outdoor entertaining zones, including the pool and sunken firepit, privacy was achieved for both the homeowners and surrounding properties.

The exterior material palette blends spotted gum timber, smooth render and Coolum stone, delivering richness and depth. Commercial-profile double-glazed Rylock windows frame clean architectural lines while drawing natural light deep into the home. Timber-lined eaves soften the façade, contrasting elegantly with Alucobond boxed gutters and a cliplock roof. A striking front entry, complete with timber posts, hand-laid stonework and a custom spotted gum door, creates a memorable arrival experience.

Inside, a soaring atrium crowns the expansive entry lobby, where feature pendant lighting casts a warm glow across the oak floating staircase and integrated lift. A built-in saltwater aquarium introduces an immediate sense of calm.

Hydronic underfloor heating and chevron European oak flooring guide you toward the open-plan kitchen, dining and living zone.

Designed for seamless entertaining, the kitchen features fully integrated appliances, electronically operated overhead cabinetry and custom white two-pack, handleless joinery. Stone benchtops with a waterfall island anchor the space, while a generous butler’s pantry provides additional storage and preparation areas.

Full-height wraparound glazing connects the main living zone to an expansive alfresco area.

Limestone paving, a stone fireplace with wood fire, built-in BBQ kitchen and spotted gum-lined ceiling make this an all-seasons retreat. A reeded glass screen ensures privacy to the adjacent spa and pool, while an internal bar and rumpus with Blackstone finishes further enhance the home’s entertaining credentials.

Accommodation is thoughtfully zoned. The ground floor includes a guest suite with luxurious ensuite, while the middle level hosts children’s bedrooms—each with its own ensuite—alongside a secondary living area. The upper floor is dedicated to a private master retreat, complete with expansive dressing room, skylight and a stunning Venetian plaster ensuite.

A fully equipped basement elevates the lifestyle offering, housing a four-car garage, cinema, gym, infrared sauna and cellar, along with advanced water storage systems. Smart home integration via a CBUS system allows app-controlled lighting, audio, security, pool heating and blinds. A Tesla solar system, double glazing and passive ventilation features ensure the home is as efficient as it is beautiful.
