Private Inspection by Private Appointment

An extraordinary offering of almost an acre in the illustrious Gascoigne Estate, The Gables presents one of Melbourne’s most prominent Queen Anne mansions, designed in 1902 by Ussher & Kemp and framed by botanic gardens from Royal Botanic Gardens’ own William Guilfoyle. Extending over four street frontages and encompassing approximately 3,465sqm of established grounds, it is a generational opportunity to secure a landmark estate, whether as a private residence of rare proportion or as a continuation of its long-held role as one of Victoria’s most recognisable event destinations.

The mansion’s heritage is unmistakable. Sweeping verandahs, intricate plasterwork celebrating Australian flora and fauna, stained leadlight and finely detailed timber interiors preserve its Federation-era stature. The gardens retain much of Guilfoyle’s original plan, graced by Himalayan Cedars now more than 120 years old, together with manicured lawns, hedges, a gazebo and pond. Throughout its history, The Gables has hosted some of Melbourne’s most notable receptions, from weddings and celebrations to infamous soirées, its legacy enriched with stories that are both celebrated and notorious.

Distinguished by four grand reception rooms, including the dining rooms and a central ballroom, the interiors evoke a bygone artistry, supported by a commercial kitchen, bar and expansive guest amenities. Upstairs, two bedrooms, utilised as bridal suites, complement a separate two-bedroom residence with drive-through garaging, while an office, multiple storerooms and a current liquor licence enhance its adaptability for both distinguished private living and commercial enterprise. Positioned only 14km from the CBD, with transport and leading schools such as Sacré Coeur, Korowa, Caulfield Grammar and De La Salle close by, The Gables represents an opportunity seldom offered to the market.
