McMaster House: a Grand Designs Transformations showcase of family luxury and intelligent comfort.
There are renovations that improve a home. And then there are transformations that redefine it entirely. McMaster House is the latter.
Featured on ABC’s Grand Designs Transformations, this Mitcham residence by Heartly Design Studio is a study in what happens when a preserved 1950s white weatherboard façade becomes the canvas for something altogether more considered.
The much-loved Liquidambar tree still anchors the street frontage. Step inside, and the home’s transformation is immediate: a calm, curated palette, beautiful texture and a sense of scale that feels both impressive and genuinely liveable.
Three bedrooms and a family bathroom are privately zoned off the home’s entry — a quiet, considered buffer before the architecture reveals itself.
A sculptural spiral staircase and light-filled void deliver a true architectural moment at the home’s heart, balanced by a striking red Venetian plaster bathroom that adds warmth and personality without compromise.
Tucked behind the staircase, a dedicated home office provides a refined work-from-home space that feels connected yet discreet.
Then the home opens into its showpiece: a spectacular open-plan living, dining and kitchen domain designed for gathering. Artedomus stone, bespoke joinery, Brodware tapware and premium Siemens appliances elevate everyday living, supported by a butler’s pantry, an impressive walk-in wine cellar and multiple integrated fridges for entertaining at scale.
Outside, a floating concrete entertaining area with integrated BBQ, built-in seating and an outdoor fireplace is framed by landscaped, irrigated gardens — and a super-cute cubby for the kids.
Upstairs, the parents’ level is a world of its own: a palatial main bedroom and parents’ retreat with views towards the Dandenong Ranges.
Technology and comfort are seamlessly integrated throughout, with 11kW solar (three-phase), three automated reverse-cycle ducted systems, double-glazed Low-E windows, automated blinds, whole-home voice-controlled automation, commercial-grade Wi-Fi and advanced security.
An easy walk to Rangeview Primary, transport and Heatherdale Reserve, and close to EastLink, Mitcham Shopping Centre and schools.
Family luxury, finished to an uncompromising standard.

Caption 1 — Launch
McMaster House has arrived.
Featured on ABC’s Grand Designs Transformations, this remarkable Mitcham residence by Heartly Design Studio takes a preserved 1950s weatherboard home and reimagines it for contemporary family life.
Behind the original white façade and much-loved Liquidambar lies a home of architectural drama and considered detail — from the sculptural spiral staircase and light-filled void to the Artedomus stone kitchen, walk-in wine cellar, parents’ retreat and landscaped outdoor entertaining zone.
A transformation of character, craft and intelligent comfort.
McMaster House, Mitcham.
Caption 2 — Design and architecture
Some homes reveal themselves all at once. McMaster House is designed to unfold.
A preserved 1950s weatherboard façade gives little away from the street. Inside, Heartly Design Studio has created a sequence of beautifully resolved spaces anchored by a sculptural spiral staircase and soaring void.
Then come the details: red Venetian plaster, bespoke joinery, Artedomus stone, Brodware tapware and a kitchen designed as much for gathering as it is for everyday family life.
Original character remains part of the story. The architecture simply takes it somewhere new.
Caption 3 — Lifestyle and entertaining
Designed for family life. Equipped for entertaining at scale.
At the heart of McMaster House, an expansive living, dining and kitchen domain brings everyone together around Artedomus stone, bespoke joinery and premium Siemens appliances, with a butler’s pantry, walk-in wine cellar and multiple integrated fridges working quietly behind the scenes.
Outside, a floating concrete entertaining area adds an integrated BBQ, built-in seating and outdoor fireplace within landscaped gardens, while upstairs, a private parents’ level looks towards the Dandenong Ranges.
It’s the kind of home where architecture makes an impression, but everyday life was never an afterthought.

McMaster House: a Grand Designs Transformations showcase of family luxury and intelligent comfort.
There is a particular kind of home that resists easy description. McMaster House is one of them.
From the street, it announces itself quietly — a preserved 1950s white weatherboard façade, a much-loved Liquidambar still anchoring the garden and a restrained frontage that gives little away. That understatement is deliberate, making the transformation inside all the more striking.
Inside, the work of Heartly Design Studio reveals itself gradually. A sculptural spiral staircase rises through a light-filled void at the home's heart. A striking red Venetian plaster bathroom — warm, confident and unexpected — opens off the landing. A dedicated home office, tucked discreetly behind the staircase, feels connected to the life of the house without being consumed by it.
Then the home opens into its showpiece…

Core — Prestige onsite · Family home · Glen Iris
A blue-ribbon family home of scale, warmth and substance.
Held and cherished for 37 years, this owner-designed residence stands as a rare expression of family thinking, enduring craftsmanship and remarkable foresight in the tightly held Glen Iris Hill Estate. Built not for resale, but for real life, it is a home where its scale and flexibility still feel exceptional today.
Set on a low-maintenance 745sqm (approx.) block, the six-bedroom, three-bathroom floorplan was conceived around a large family that needed room to come together and room to retreat. Three living zones — the refined sunken formal lounge and dining, the fireside open-plan living area and the elevated billiard room — unfold in a visually connected sequence, rising gently across two sets of steps so that the entire ground floor reads as one from the moment you enter. Bi-fold doors allow each zone to close independently, giving the home the ability to host clients in the formal lounge while the family continues freely beyond.
At its heart, the white American Oak kitchen anchors the living domain with warmth, storage and timeless quality, while the large undercover alfresco keeps everything beautifully connected for larger gatherings. Lime-finished American Oak cabinetry runs throughout the home, alongside solid timber leadlight entry doors, an elaborate staircase, high ceilings with elegant cornices and a warmth of finish that only 37 careful years can produce.
The accommodation reflects the same intelligence. Upstairs, a dedicated children’s wing with three bedrooms, extensive robing and a deluxe bathroom sits privately apart from the parents’ zone, which combines a fifth bedroom/home office, central study, kitchenette and an oversized main bedroom with spa ensuite, 13ft walk-in robe and a large balcony with elevated city glimpses and New Year’s Eve fireworks. Downstairs, a sixth bedroom with close bathroom access provides an ideal arrangement for extended family, guests or long-term flexibility.
Extensive parking for up to six cars, an oversized double garage with concealed tool shed and rear access, circular driveway, ducted climate control, intercom, zoned alarm, ducted vacuum, camera surveillance and a beautifully maintained garden complete the appeal of a genuine one-of-a-kind home.
Moments from Glen Iris Primary School, Ashburton Village and train station, recreational parklands, elite private schools, Chadstone Shopping Centre, Deakin and Monash universities, and the Monash Freeway, this is a blue-ribbon family address with lasting significance.
Core — Standard onsite · Architect-designed family home · Malvern East
Architect-designed elegance in a private Malvern East cul-de-sac.
This architect-designed five-bedroom residence is a study in what happens when period character and considered contemporary living are built to coexist.
A travertine-paved porch and leadlight entry introduce interiors of remarkable character, where a refined formal lounge and dining domain is anchored by a period-style fireplace and a striking indoor fernery with fish pond. Beyond French doors, a guest bedroom with ensuite, fireplace and study access offers exceptional flexibility for visitors, extended family or working from home.
A central staircase rises to the vast open-plan living/dining/kitchen area, warmed by a gas log fireplace. Granite benchtops, 900mm Ascot cooker, two-pack cabinetry and butler’s pantry elevate the kitchen, while French doors open to an all-seasons alfresco primed for large-scale gatherings.
Upstairs, four generous bedrooms (main with walk-in robe, ensuite and private balcony) are privately zoned, while the three upstairs bathrooms are finished with Italian travertine tiles, marble benchtops, heated towel rails and custom backlit mirror frames (family bathroom with travertine soaker bath).
Decorative ceilings, marble fireplaces, in-built ceiling speakers, solar panels, camera surveillance, alarm, extensive underhouse storage and off-street parking for up to six cars are further highlights of a home of rare character and family calibre.
Living directly opposite OT Flight Reserve parkland and moments from the Scotchman’s Creek Trail and Waverley Oval promotes an active family lifestyle, while swift access to East Malvern train station, Chadstone Shopping Centre, Darling Village cafes and elite private schools (Sacre Coeur, Korowa Anglican Girls' School, Caulfield Grammar (Malvern Campus), De La Salle College and Kilvington Grammar) adds further family appeal.

On a paved road behind a striking natural stone façade, polished timber floors and a soaring pitched ceiling introduce a breathtaking open-plan pavilion where family life and entertaining take centre stage. A gourmet kitchen with a huge concealed butler’s pantry, cellar and gas stove top is an entertainer’s dream, while French and bi-fold doors open to an expansive deck that captures magnificent views across the landscape.
