‘Deco House’—A Mar Lodge Icon Showcasing the industry-leading acumen of Dean Dyson Architects, Deco House has gained a reputation for its sustainable focus, high-end materials, expressive geometry, and sculpted flow. Featured in both The Design Files and The Local Project, the home is one of Mar Lodge’s rare Art Deco originals to be preserved rather than replaced, with the ‘40s provenance and elegance captured and woven into design that does luxury its own way. A high-side stance sees classical and cutting-edge strike the perfect balance, while sun pours through a sequence of skylights, dances off Venetian plaster, and drapes across herringbone parquetry for an impression to remember. Steel-frame doors reveal a full-size study, introduced before a vast main section where the home truly comes into its own. A sculptural spiral staircase lets flow stay streamlined, while a fireside lounge and open dining area sit either side of a marble kitchen’s striking 4.5m island. • Published in The Design Files and The Local Project • One-of-a-kind Mar Lodge residence • Stunning craft, scale & detail • Resort-style outdoor domain • Cinema, gym, sauna, marble kitchen Metal-frame feature windows rise to the soaring ceiling to bring all-day sun, frame the garden backdrop, add depth to atmosphere, and merge inside and out, with a barbecue alfresco divine for summer nights with friends and family. A separate rear pavilion is ideal as a gym, cabana, or base for large-scale events, while flourishing vines, manicured hedges, a Japanese maple, firepit retreat, and total privacy prove stellar counterparts to an 18m, self-cleaning pool heated for year-round use. Masses of robe space, a luxe ensuite, ceiling-integrated television, and view across the pool accompany a master giving the option to live on one level, while atop the sky-lit spiral staircase, an open retreat accompanies two chic, added bathrooms, extensive additional storage, and generous bedrooms two, three, and four. A cinema, oversized double garage, electric-gated parking for third and fourth cars, security, ILVE appliances, a butler’s pantry, downstairs laundry and powder room, infrared sauna, hydronic heating, zoned heating/cooling, and electric blinds headline a long list of other highlights, while 5 elite private secondary schools, North Essendon and Rose Street lifestyle hubs, Buckley Park ovals, Lincoln Park farmers markets, trains and trams, and freeways sit moments away.
