Melbourne-based designers Hans and Ursula Van Schoonhoven from House of Orange are selling their Elwood home with a price guide of $3.4 million to $3.6 million. "We are very good at renovating a place without renovating it," said Mr Van Schoonhoven, in reference to the many non-structural improvements the couple have made to the home. At the front of the home is a sitting room with original period details that Mr Van Schoonhoven calls the family's "relax room". But for Mr Newton, it's the feeling the home elicits that has captured buyers' attention. "There is a beautiful warmth when you walk in and there's something relaxing about it," says Mr Newton.
