21 Riversdale Road, Hawthorn VIC 3122

As Hawthorn moves up the residential development ladder, newcomer 21 Riversdale Road makes a grand entrance to this leafy and luxurious suburb. Backed by developer Moda Corp and architect Ewert Leaf, this low-rise pays homage to local streetscapes whilst embracing contemporary design.

Impeccable craftsmanship inspired by striking concrete

Fusing bold materials with the subtlety of exquisite craftsmanship, 21 Riversdale Road houses 22 residences built across four floors. Dressed in an exquisite facade, the exterior appears as if it has been carved from a single concrete form. Lined with dark brickwork, the balconies reduce the structure’s visual mass. Serving to soften the impact of bold materials, recycled timber soffits and vertical timber battens are installed in an organised fashion across the facade.

Every detail gleams extravagance

Bringing the neighbourhood into the design, landscape architect John Patrick delivers a locally-focused planting scheme which harmonises with the streetscape, whilst creating a peaceful touch to the exterior. You’ll notice the designers’ focus on maximising natural light upon entering the residences, which are available in one, two, and three-bedroom configurations. A narrow floor-to-ceiling window begins at ground level and extends to the top of the facade, bathing the corridor in light.

Thoughtful design from balconies to bathrooms

Larger apartments feature generous terraces and balconies, as well as floor-to-ceiling sliding glass windows. From premium slimline finishes and Signorino marble benchtops to custom-designed wardrobe cabinetry, the attention to detail is sure to impress even the most discerning resident.

Residences offer ample storage and joinery that has been carefully crafted to withstand the test of time, fortified by robust smooth hinges and drawer sliders. The epitome of refinement, kitchens feature marble benchtops, oak timber floors, and minimalist linear pendants above the kitchen island bench.

Contrasting colour tones flow through to the bathrooms, which include large white ceramic tiles, charcoal metal detailing, and brushed steel hardware. Even the showers and baths have with their own shelving niches that mirror the design of exterior balconies and showcase the intelligence that has gone into design thinking.
