Located in leafy Glen Iris, The Beckworth sets a new benchmark in design excellence and sophistication on the doorstep of High Street, Malvern.
Carefully crafted by renowned architecture studio, Telha Clarke, and interior design firm Studio Tate, this boutique offering of just 18 premium residences offers the chance to live in refined comfort.
Harris HMC, a local builder with extensive experience in delivering high-quality apartments over the last 30 years, has been appointed as the project’s builder and the project is due for completion in September 2020.
The building’s exterior plays in harmony with the surrounding tree-lined streets. Dark materiality to the recessed second story and the rear façade elevations achieve visual balance, complemented by lush landscaping in the verdant gardens.
Each floorplan has been purposely designed to emulate the dimensions of a stand-alone house. Additional features such as wine fridges, separate laundries, and expansive outdoor spaces, as well as butler’s pantries in select apartments, further enhance the sense of spaciousness here.
Full-height windows allow an abundance of natural light to suffuse living rooms, highlighting an understated natural palette with warm-toned flooring. The inviting area comes complete with a fireplace, and timber joinery accented by stone finishes creates a bespoke vibe.
Residents will find the entertainer’s kitchen supremely functional, thanks to additional inclusions such as self-cleaning ovens, microwaves, and plate warmers which sit at a comfortable waist-height so handling hot pans won’t be awkward. The Fisher & Paykel fridge and freezer combinations are large enough to fit a family’s worth of groceries, too.
The kitchens aren’t just practical, they are also decadently fitted with stone benchtops and splashbacks, contrasted by bespoke integrated joinery and satin nickel handles on the cupboards.
Bathrooms are spa-like retreats with elegant tiling in the shower, concealed cisterns, and floating vanity units. Residents can enjoy a long soak in the freestanding bathtub after a long day, and there’ll be no need to fight for time thanks to the addition of dual basins.
Those who live at The Beckworth can host wine tastings in the building’s very own wine cellar. Perfect for entertaining friends and family, the space comes with eighteen custom-made lockable cabinets.
From the historic Malvern Gardens and the Harold Holt Swim Centre to an array of boutique retail outlets and trendy cafés, Glen Iris and Malvern are two of Melbourne’s most prestigious suburbs — and The Beckworth places its occupants right in the middle of both.
