Once in a Lifetime CBD Residence Steeped in History & Luxury
LEVEL 1, 30 OLIVER LANE, MELBOURNE
Built by engineer and statesman, Sir John Monash in 1907 as a prototype of full concrete construction, The Bond Store lives today as one of Australia’s most notable, and exclusive, residential addresses. Honouring Monash’s enduring vison with a ground-breaking design for a new era, Level 1, The Bond Store is a peerless whole-floor approx. 550sqm residence; consolidated from three titles over almost two decades of acquisition.
Crafted under the direction of Main Properties, Danny and Uschi Schwartz, with highly commended interiors by O’Connor and Houle Architecture, the residence provides an immensely adaptable up to 4 bedroom, 4.5 bathroom, multi-suite design graced with intimate bedroom wings, impressive formal spaces, notably high ceilings and inviting indoor-out entertaining zones. Providing direct on-street secure and private gated entry, an adaptable separate-entry business-at-home premises and an outdoor courtyard, the property is an unparalleled lifestyle investment seamlessly blending family, business, creativity and generational longevity.
Offering the luxury of absolute privacy in a lushly-curtained master-domain encompassing sleep-space, dressing-room and a true double ensuite (dual-vanity, double-shower, salon-station), the residence provides a private ensuite for each secondary suite; one designed as media lounge. Similarly adaptable, the separate-entry office premises are conceived to serve as a fourth suite-style accommodation (with private bathroom and kitchenette) – ideal as a dedicated wing to accommodate older or younger generations, guests or staff.
Appointed to world-class standards, the home places a streamlined kitchen centre-stage (with invisibly integrated Miele appliances, a showpiece Lacanche range, multiple Vintec wine-cabinets and Zip tap), puts subtly luxe bathrooms back-of-house, and adds an Italian gas-fired oven outdoors. Grounded by Maple flooring, cabinetry and wall lining, the home’s interiors provide a soft interplay of Italian limestone (for benchtops, surrounds and through the principal ensuite), Japanese Inax tiles, and globally-sourced lighting - including the cloud-like pendants of Paris au Mois D’Aout, Le Corbusier’s sculptural De Marseille wall-lights, and Platek’s sharp Target floodlights.
Blurring boundaries inside to out, and public to private, the architects’ design engages walls of sound-insulated glass at every turn - softened by layers of sheer and solid curtaining, and mostly remote-operated when outward-facing. Climate-controlled by hydronic, reverse-cycle and in-floor (bathroom and courtyard) heating and air conditioning pumping continuous filtered air, the property is acoustically engineered and secured by a fully-integrated system including internal and external CCTV, fob entry and lift-access to 3 car basement garaging and storage.
At the heart of the globally renowned Melbourne lifestyle, with Flinders Lane’s hospitality precinct at the door (Chin Chin is on the corner, Lucy Liu and Gimlet is across the road), the property has the central business district at its feet, the rooftop bars and high-level restaurants overhead, the NGV and theatres at arms-length ...and Paris-End luxury fashion houses including Chanel at the end of Oliver Lane, Louis Vuitton, Gucci, and Bvlgari all within a one block radius.
