Overview

Heritage character moments from South Melbourne Market

Brimming with character and history, this heritage-inspired residence is a charming warehouse conversion on the corner of Ingles and Garton Streets, moments from the heart of Port Melbourne. Originally constructed as a shop front by Patrick McCarthy in 1881, the captivating facade sets the tone for a home where original features and contemporary comfort sit in easy harmony. Beyond double front doors, soaring ceilings and original floorboards establish a sense of warehouse-style volume and light, softened by the warmth of period detail. An ornate spiral iron staircase, panelled ceilings and original bathrooms speak to the home's history, while timber Venetian shutters filter dappled light throughout. The main bedroom opens through double glass doors and is served by a large built-in wardrobe. A bathroom with a shower and a claw-foot bath includes a concealed European laundry, while a second bedroom and a separate powder room complete the ground floor. Ascend the spiral staircase to an elevated open-plan living, dining and kitchen warmed by a gas fireplace. Light-filled and generous, the space offers room to relax, entertain and work from home. The kitchen is appointed with a freestanding Westinghouse gas stove and oven, a Fisher and Paykel dishwasher and a breakfast bar beneath statement lighting. As a corner position with a heritage overlay, the home enjoys an abundance of natural light and a rare sense of provenance. Superbly central, this is a lifestyle address within walking distance of South Melbourne Market and the shops of Bay Street, with tram access close by for an easy commute into the city. A characterful home of genuine warmth and history, it will have many admirers.
