The Bradford in Kew presents an opportunity to join the ranks of one of the Melbourne’s most exclusive enclaves, with heritage overlays and planning controls limiting obtainability.

Developed by Jafari Property Group with a focus on those looking to downsize without compromising on quality and luxury appointments, The Bradford offers discerning buyers the chance to secure a blue-chip property and enhanced lifestyle, enjoying the area’s abundance of amenities and relaxed community atmosphere.

Located in the tightly-held Sackville Ward, The Bradford beats at the heart of Kew’s rich history.

Surrounded by grand estates and mansions and tree-lined thoroughfares, The Bradford comprises 10 luxury residences curated by the highly-regarded Cera Stribley architecture and interior design studio.

Designed over three levels, the building integrates into the surrounding streetscape, cleverly divided into four smaller entities, each with their own identity to imbue a sense of privacy and individuality according to the developers, connected by a secure lobby.

The generously-proportioned single-level apartments, including two penthouses, range from 95 sqm to 227 sqm, with gardens and outdoor terraces from 13 sqm to 148 sqm adding to the sense of light and space.

Expansive floorplans encompass two or three-bedrooms and up to three-bathrooms and a powder room. Residences also feature sumptuous living spaces leading to private outdoor living areas, with the basement providing storage and dual private parking, with three spaces allocated for each penthouse.

Cera Stribley’s signature brick exterior is a nod to the local heritage and neighbouring period dwellings, acknowledging the surrounding context while reinterpreting the past with a restrained and contemporary architectural vision

The exterior combines brick and timber materials to give the building a striking yet delicate aspect, while the visual bulk has been skilfully softened by the fracturing of the buildings into four entities, each articulated differently in its facade expression, colour and texture, to more closely reflect the established character of the neighbouring houses.

Significant landscaping along the building’s two street frontages further softens the façade, with the ground-floor apartments all enjoying lush gardens, and the terrace landscaping adding to the restrained silhouette.
