Imposing Queen Anne-style Hawthorn East charmer Talana listed with $11 million-plus hopes
Talana, the imposing Queen Anne-style residence at Hawthorn East, has been relisted for sale.
Set on Harcourt Street, the six-bedroom, three-bathroom 1900 house was designed by architect John Beswicke, the best known architect in Hawthorn during the late 1800s, having also designed the Hawthorn Town Hall.
The red-brick house, with the decorative embellishments overlaid with timber, comes with a third-storey tower under the large hipped roof clad in Marseilles tiles.
It sits on a 4,122-square-metre holding with north/south synthetic grass tennis court, a solar- and gas-heated pool, and a self-contained summer house.
There is a driveway leading to a four-car garage.
It’s named after a town in the province of Ogliastra, in Sardinia, Italy.
Having been listed with Marshall White late last year, it’s now listed through RT Edgar agent Michael Ebeling with $11 million-plus hopes.
Talana has been renovated since the current vendors bought the property in 2000 for $2 million from the Mott family. They have since demolished a brick cottage that sat in its front yard (pictured above).
