Overview

A rare sense of autonomy in Dickson’s cordial factory

A sensation in every respect from its scale and expression to its 172 year strong heritage and prized Richmond Hill position, this architectural incorporating considered design work by Six Degrees Architects within the 1854-built Dickson’s Cordial Factory represents an inspired take on the Melbourne lifestyle. One of only eleven in the brick and bluestone building where each residence enjoys its own layout and identity, the home makes a statement with its solid timber entrance arch and door to a private garage, with spaces beyond bringing real world function to an atmosphere of industrial flair. A ground floor bedroom with a walk in robe, study area, and ensuite is the perfect complement to a top level bedroom with its own robe and bathroom, while a free flowing second storey with exposed original brickwork, a barrel vaulted ceiling, and timber floors sees living, dining, and kitchen areas combine for streamlined entertaining. Scenery proves unforgettable on a roof terrace perched among the trees, while other highlights include heating/cooling, ceiling fans, an intercom, powder room, and eligibility for two parking permits. With precedent set by residence nine, a fourth storey extension remains possible to lift luxury to new heights (STCA), while Bridge Road, Swan Street, the market, Richmond Traders, and city trams all sit steps away.
