The founders of luxury French skincare company La Fervance are selling the Elwood home they use as a base when returning from Paris.
Melissa Obeid and Jamie Arnold launched the award-winning label in 2017, and it has since gone on to become an award-winning skincare group by using ingredients sourced solely from Australia and France.
Their latest gong was the Luxury Skincare Brand of the Year – Global in the International Elite 100 Awards 2025, but they have collected a range of awards and nominations across Europe over the past eight years.

The pair had been using 36 Meredith St, Elwood, as their base when back in Melbourne – but are selling it as they upgrade.
Zed Real Estate’s Zed Nasheet has the $2m-$2.2m listing and said the four-bedroom home’s big draw cards included its location an easy walk to the bay and local amenities, as well as an attic space upstairs that was perfect as a kids retreat.
The home’s interiors are styled as impeccably as you might expect of the Francophiles.

Mr Nasheet said the home had attracted a range of prospective buyers including families, investors and downsizers – with one party flying in from interstate to inspect the home.
Dating back to 1918, the home has Bosch appliances and Caesarstone surfaces in the kitchen that connects to both a family room with a fireplace and a dining room that spills out to a rear deck.
The main bedroom has an ensuite, while a secondary bedroom opens to the front veranda, and adjoins a formal living room with a fireplace.
