7-9 Caroline Crescent, KALORAMA

As you turn into the driveway, Silvan Dam glimmers in the distance - a moment of mountain theatre as morning mist drapes across the water. By the time you step out, the view has given way to the quiet beauty of Kalorama itself: a tapestry of greenery, birdsong in stereo, and a sense that the air here moves slower, softer.

Once a humble hills holiday retreat, this character-rich weatherboard complete with white picket fence has been reimagined and extended over 25 years into a versatile family haven that celebrates light, space, and connection. Hardwood floating floors lead into the breathtaking open plan living and meals domain, where cathedral ceilings, a trio of skylights, and clerestory windows capture all-day light. Custom windows frame the surrounding gardens and views like living art, while a grand stone fireplace promises winter warmth and endless ambience. French doors spill out to a north-easterly deck where sunrise coffee becomes ritual and cool evening breezes invite long conversations.
