There is a great sense of tradition surrounding the dignified Victorian residence at 389 Barkers Road Kew. Noted Hawthorn architect, John Beswicke, built the house in 1890. Beswicke also designed 'Rotha' in Harcourt Street and 'Glucksburg' in Yarra Street. The Barkers Road property has been home to three generations of the Winneke family: It was the home of the late Hon. Sir Henry Winneke, Governor of Victoria between 1974-1982. This grand and imposing 5-bedroom home has been meticulously restored, extended and significantly enhanced during a 10-year renovation. Capitalising on grand proportions, it now includes a lavish 1st floor master suite, 4 bathrooms (2 are marble), vast casual living and dining opening to a sandstone terrace with a pool, huge granite kitchen, rumpus room and awe-inspiring front formal rooms. Features auto gates to a double garage, impressive private front gardens, Baltic flooring, cellar, open fireplaces, intricate plasterwork, ducted heating/cooling and interco
