Overview

"Marathon" c.1890 Italianate Grandeur Elevated by Mim Design

"Marathon" c.1890 stands as one of Brighton's distinguished Italianate pair, yet remains wholly individual. Set within the coveted Church Street precinct, this landmark residence combines its heritage significance with a contemporary design vision by award-winning Melbourne studio Mim Design. It delivers generous family living and striking entertaining zones, positioned for lifestyle convenience near elite schooling, village amenity, and the foreshore. The imposing façade and manicured gardens frame an entry hall of scale and elegance, highlighted by 12-foot ceilings, wide oak flooring, and original leadlight glass. Formal sitting and dining rooms extend from this space, each anchored by a marble open fireplace and Murano chandeliers, complemented by bold colour palettes and established garden aspects. The informal living and dining domain is designed for connection and light, opening directly to the heated pool and private garden. A paved alfresco zone and outdoor fireplace create continuous indooroutdoor engagement, ideal for year-round entertaining. The gourmet kitchen features Signorino Cosmic Granite, premium Miele appliances, a concealed cocktail bar with Vintec wine fridge, and integrated Liebherr refrigeration. A velvet-draped staircase leads to the upper level, where four robed bedrooms are arranged around a central jade-marble bathroom and matching powder room. The main bedroom, with OFP, wraps the northern façade and opens to the traditional return balcony, accompanied by an adjacent dressing room or optional fifth bedroom. A ground-floor bathroom and laundry also incorporate Cosmic Granite finishes. Additional features include extensive storage, ducted heating/cooling, and parking for four cars, including a secure garage via ROW. Exclusive and supremely private, "Marathon" occupies a premier position within Brighton's golden grid, with seamless access to Middle Brighton Station, Firbank & Brighton Grammar, and Church Street's dining and retail options.
