The Orb House is a visionary masterpiece from award-winning architect Bojan Simic where an expansive design of luxury-laden spaces revolves cohesively around a central entertainment oasis at the Yarra River end of Studley Park’s premier treelined street. A RAIA short-listed domain that’s highly regarded in architectural circles, this sublime contemporary residence with its striking façade is absolutely world-class combining a zoned split-level interior and high-end features tailored for indoor-outdoor family excellence.

Flawlessly unfolding with a free-flowing layout offering intimate retreats for each family member and a series of living areas that bring everyone together, this stunning designer home with a minimalist aesthetic delivers maximum impact with a stunning emphasis on innovative form, high-end functionality and volumes of light and airy space. Towering glazing and Grigio Versilia marble highlight an extensive sweep of dining and living areas overlooking a self-cleaning pool.

An adjoining marble kitchen with its waterfall breakfast island is breathtaking and boasts Miele appliances (steam/regular ovens, gas cooktop, integrated fridge/freezer) and a butler’s pantry with a Leibherr wine fridge, while a pool and deck-side entertainment pavilion by a cedar sauna/bathroom features electric awnings, Beefeater BBQ and Scholtes drinks fridges. A connoisseur’s wine cellar showcasing a Veuve Clicquot riddling rack and a 1000+ bottle capacity completes the picture of entertainment perfection.

The precision and artistry of the head-turning design is best expressed in a two-level cubical wing where a lower-level lounge with a suspended fireplace and doors to the deck leads to a top-floor home office with magnificent views. A large ground-floor main bedroom offers copious built-in robes and a deluxe ensuite (freestanding stone bath, double-shower) before a vast children’s wing including three spacious bedrooms (BIRs, ensuites), a TV lounge and access to a city-view terrace with a five-person spa.

Further is a versatile rumpus/study or gym while there are also powder rooms, a full-size laundry opening to a private terrace, hydronic floor heating, ducted heating/cooling, solar electricity, CCTV and security alarm, biometric/video intercom, electric blinds and drapes, Sonos speaker system, American Oak and wool flooring, abundant storage, easy-care landscaped garden and internal remote-control double garage.

Iconic, incomparable and inspirational in a prestigious elevated position with rear lane ROW, The Orb House is a substantial and state-of-the-art family sanctuary offering exceptional convenience to leading private schools, Kew Junction shopping and restaurants, river parkland and walking trails, golf courses, Eastern freeway, buses and trams to the myriad attractions of Melbourne’s vibrant CBD.
