Overview

Character-rich, architect-designed home in the heart of historic Richmond

An exciting opportunity presents to purchase an original Circa 1922 residence in the historical heartland of Richmond's once booming clothing and textile industry. Secluded and quietly positioned towards the end of a no-through-road, beneath the Pelaco neon sign, is where you'll find this character-rich, Edwardian home with many wonderful surprises inside. Beautifully reimagined some years ago by architect Kai Chen, now Lovell Chen, and sensitively extended with his characteristic approach of "thoughtful and instinctive" architecture. You'll still be wowed by his innovative design, exceptional use of space and his ability to maximise light. Modernist elements sit comfortably with old-world character and charm. The moment you enter you'll notice towering ceilings, original Baltic pine floors, three spacious bedrooms, two with decorative fireplaces and the third with a fun bunk bed. The lounge is anchored by the original brick fireplace, now cleverly converted to a wall of shelves creating an ambiance reminiscent of a parlour. Dinner parties will take place in the oh-so-cute dining room, surrounded by windows with lovely courtyard views. Beneath the dining room is a full height wine cellar that will comfortably accommodate an extensive wine collection and on occasion a few lucky friends. An attractive timber-and-glass framed wall allows plenty of light to flood in, it encompasses a full width bifold door that opens to the lovely, paved courtyard. From the charming, hostess kitchen you're also treated to tranquil views of the lushly planted outdoor area. It's well-appointed with ample cabinetry, timber benchtops, a pantry, additional storage in the laundry room and a cleverly positioned skylight. At the rear of the property is the bathroom with a sunken bath nestled in a glass enclosure, simply lie back and watch the trees overhead or the stars at night. Upstairs is a large study (or fourth bedroom) enclosed by windows sloping in a northerly aspect to harness winter sun and effectively shade in summer. Enjoy lovely treetop views and Chen's show-stopping pivot door - from here you step out onto the treehouse-like roof terrace and enjoy the wonderful vantage point. This unique home also features hydronic heating, expansive roof storage, ceiling roses, original timber doors and off-street parking for one car. Situated on the doorstep of unsurpassed lifestyle conveniences ensuring a fuss-free and indulgent inner-city lifestyle. You are moments from tempting eateries, coffee shops, retail stores and Frederick's Fine Grocer for gourmet delights. The city bound tram is a steps away and around the corner on Church St you're spoilt with more options for an easy commute to vibrant Swan St shopping precinct and to South Yarra's boutique retail strip all within a 13-minutes' tram ride.
