Private sanctuary with pool & laneway access

Behind the evocative façade of this Edwardian beauty lies a stunning & private sanctuary of seclusion and tranquillity - all elevated by glorious garden surrounds, an Italian-tiled pool and the convenience of rear laneway access. Crowned by soaring ceilings, with chic hardwood flooring flowing seamlessly underfoot, the home - which is owned & internally styled/designed by the founders of world-wide global lifestyle brand House of Orange - have been finished to impress, with a raft of first-class fixtures and finishes all adding to its already enormous family appeal. Upon entry, a central arched hallway leads past a serene lounge with window seat & ornate fireplace, the four bedrooms including the tranquil primary suite with ensuite (heated floor/skylight) and designer family bathroom, also with heated floor and skylight, to a breathtaking living/dining domain. Set under high expose beamed ceilings and fitted with bespoke cabinetry, this incredible space is connected to the home's verdant surroundings via an entire wall of retractable floor-to-ceiling glass for seamless indoor-outdoor living. Taking pride of place here is a first-class entertainer's kitchen with premium appliances and lavish 40mm stone surfaces a culinary setting perfectly placed for both indoor and outdoor dining. Outside, alfresco decking cascades down to the sparkling in-ground pool a truly idyllic oasis embraced by beautiful established greenery and a setting that invites open-air relaxation and effortless summertime entertaining.

There is also the convenience of roller door access (and potential parking for two cars) to a rear laneway. And when it comes to locations, this beautiful tree-lined street is truly hard to beat. A five minute walk to the St Kilda Botanical Gardens and within moments of the vibrant hubs of both Elwood and St Kilda, the home is also close to public transport, the area's schools and is just minutes to the CBD.
