86 Dalgetty Road Beaumaris

With only two custodians since new, Robin Boyd’s iconic “Browne House” is ready for a new family to embrace. The first of its kind to boast a load bearing ‘window wall,’ the home has been sympathetically renovated and extended – its interiors thoughtfully reimagined to deliver the very best in modern family living whilst at the same time celebrating the property’s mid-century origins & historical significance.

Enjoying a time-honoured connection to its verdant surroundings, the home with striking orange front door opens to a bricked/glass entry which leads to a peacefully positioned master suite on one side and the home’s main living zone on the other. Original Victorian Ash floors flow through the living/dining zone, sitting area and sleek gourmet kitchen - where the expansive window wall is the standout feature - while locally sourced & carefully matched flooring stars in the recent extension which houses a separate children’s zone complete with up to three bedrooms (or two and an additional living room), beautiful family bathroom and discrete laundry.

Untouched authentic batten board cladding still graces the home’s rear external wall, while among the many highlights are hydronic heating, reverse cycle air-conditioning, open fireplace and lots of under-house storage. Bathed in glorious northerly sunshine, a huge recycled Jarrah deck and fabulous outdoor kitchen with Smeg cooktop and built-in fridge takes care of summer entertaining.

An exciting opportunity to own an important piece of Australian architectural history, the Browne House is close to Beaumaris Primary School, the Concourse, parks and the bay. It is also in the coveted Beaumaris Secondary College zone.

In line with the Victorian Government requirements, all open for inspections require proof of full vaccination prior to entry.
