Luxury and lifestyle form the core of this award-winning Balwyn North sanctuary that features its own wellness wing with a cedar-lined sauna, and an oversized gym or pilates studio.
Completed in 2021, the never-lived-in home at 285 Belmore Rd replaces a 1960s residence with an ambitiously designed rebuild by the luxury design-and-build firm Latitude 37.
“Conceived as the award-winning Ultimate Modern Sanctuary, the project was delivered end-to-end by Latitude 37 and later recognised with the 2022 Master Builders Australia Best Display Home award,” explains listing agent Alex Schiavo from Kay & Burton Boroondara. The solar-heated infinity pool, gas-heated spa, and outdoor shower add to this sanctuary theme, while clever design, including soaring ceilings, creates high-quality entertaining spaces.

An award-winning Balwyn North sanctuary has hit the market.
Completed in 2021, the never-lived-in home replaces a 1960s residence.
The house was recognised with the 2022 Master Builders Australia Best Display Home award.
A bar and lounge, cellar and stone-topped BBQ further enhance this. “Outdoor spaces have been conceived as private extensions of the interior, centred around an infinity pool, spa and undercover alfresco,” Schiavo says.
“The combination of courtyard, poolside zones and integrated landscaping creates a tranquil, resort-like setting that functions effortlessly year-round.”
The layout wraps around a central courtyard, with floor-to-ceiling windows, a double-height void, a glazed timber pivot door, and a spiral staircase bringing light and sophistication to the interior.
“The home strikes a balance between contemporary luxury and resort-inspired calm, with an emphasis on natural light, spatial volume and connection to the outdoors,” Schiavo says. “Internally, refined materials, bespoke joinery and dramatic voids echo externally through landscaped courtyards, expansive glazing and seamless indoor-outdoor transitions.”
The property is listed with a price guide of $5-$5.5 million.
The house has five bedrooms and three bathrooms across two levels.
Dual kitchens and flowing entertaining zones reflect a home designed for family and hosting.
With five bedrooms and three bathrooms across two levels, the zoned accommodation allows the ground floor to be used as a private guest suite. Upstairs, a third living area and study add more versatility.
“Its generous accommodation, multiple living zones, and resort-style amenities make it particularly appealing to buyers seeking a long-term family home that also supports entertaining, wellness and flexible living,” Schiavo says.
The 936sq m block and Balwyn North location are also a drawcard.
“It enjoys a highly regarded residential setting just 10km from Melbourne’s CBD,” he says.
“Proximity to parklands, transport and coveted Greythorn Primary and Balwyn High School zones underpins its family appeal.”
285 Belmore Rd, Balwyn North is listed by Alex Schiavo Kay & Burton Boroondara with a price guide of $5-$5.5 million. Expressions of interest close March 3 at 5pm.
