5 Borrell Street, Keilor

Take a step back in time. Imagine parties by the pool, soirees in vast reception areas dripping with chandeliers, cocktails served by waiters from a solid marble bar or relaxing in front of an immense open fireplace before sauntering on to the patio for small talk with the rich and famous. Once the home of the Kirby family, founders of Village Roadshow, this once magnificent three bedroom, two bathroom residence takes pride of place on an enormous allotment of approximately 3862m2 in Keilor's dress circle. Private and breathtakingly beautiful mature gardens, filled with exotic and native species, flourish behind the stately brick and iron fence punctuated by stunning ornate gates. Like a movie star past her prime, there's room for a makeover or a new build (STCA). Huge inter-connecting reception rooms showcasing original wallpaper, drapes, ornate cornices, wall of mirrors, fireplace and glittering chandeliers tell tales of long ago revelries. The massive master bedroom suite incorporates his/her walk-in robes, ensuite and study/dressing room. A separate kitchen/living/dining space is perfect for family meals away from the grandeur of the formal rooms. Built for entertaining, there's a billiard room above the double garage, library with a spacious loft, undercover outdoor area, balcony and inground pool. The old pool house and a range of outbuildings currently serve as storage. Right in the heart of Keilor Village, close to schools, shops, transport, recreational facilities and freeway, the location is unbeatable.
