One of the area's best kept secrets, set in one of its finest streets just a block from the bay, this Edwardian gives very little away from its charming façade. Inside, it unfolds as a full-scale family home, renovated and extended with care and a clear sense of purpose.
Step through the front door and the proportions start to reveal themselves. Timber fretwork and lofty ceilings guide you along the hallway, past the first bedroom with a fireplace, ceiling roses and a soft garden outlook. The main bedroom follows, generous in size and paired with a substantial ensuite that includes both a bath and shower.
Then the interior opens up in a different way. Light drops in from above through a skylit corridor, lifting the mood as you pass a second bathroom with European laundry. A third room with built-in cabinetry sits here too, flexible enough to adapt into a lounge, study or additional sleeping accommodation.
And then you reach the rear, where everything expands. Soaring cathedral ceilings rise above the wide-open living and dining zone with split-system air conditioning. The stone-topped kitchen is centred around a large square island bench with Smeg and Asko appliances, ready for everyday use or something bigger.
Bi-fold doors create a seamless connection to the backyard with a northerly aspect and a brick-paved courtyard doubling as rare off-street parking for two cars behind roller doors. A towering palm tree stands sentinel, giving the outdoor setting a personality entirely of its own. Storage runs throughout in abundance, and the showers in both bathrooms are fitted with rainfall heads.
Zoned for St Kilda Primary and Elwood College, and close to Peanut Farm Reserve, the Botanical Gardens, Acland Street, transport and St Columba's School, this is a house that keeps surprising you from beginning to end.
