Overview

Corner-Sited in a Premier Location

Occupying a brilliant corner position behind its c1915 tuck-pointed Edwardian façade, this renovated solid brick residence reveals sun-drenched contemporary proportions across a superb single-level plan, extending to a deep private courtyard in a first-class Port Melbourne address. High ceilings and polished hardwood floors extend through the open-plan living and dining domain, flooded with natural light and served by a substantial stone kitchen appointed with a 900mm Smeg oven, gas cooktop and Bosch dishwasher. The generous front bedroom features built-in robes, while the second is privately positioned at the rear beside the contemporary bathroom. Floor-to-ceiling storage lines the rear hallway before it opens directly to the bluestone-paved courtyard, screened by established garden beds and complemented by gated pedestrian access to Spring Street East. Additional features include plantation shutters, ducted heating and cooling systems, ample storage and a small cellar, all within arguably Port Melbourne's best street, all within a short walk to Bay Street's cafés, shops and dining, Edwards Park, Lagoon Reserve, Gasworks Arts Park, Albert Park College and public transport.
