Enviably positioned just 6.8km* from the CBD, this distinguished double-fronted Victorian residence represents a sophisticated expression of period architecture and contemporary living.
Behind its classic picket fence and leafy garden, soaring ceilings, original timber floors and stained-glass detailing establish an immediate sense of character. The renovation has been undertaken with a distinctly sympathetic hand, preserving the home’s Victorian soul while introducing considered contemporary comfort. A restrained palette of heritage-inspired colours, traditional-style tapware and carefully selected finishes creates an aesthetic that feels enduring rather than overtly modern.
At the centre of the home, a beautifully proportioned open-plan living and dining domain unfolds around a refined stone-topped kitchen. A generous island with breakfast bar, abundant storage, integrated dishwasher and five-burner gourmet oven combine practicality with understated sophistication.
The relationship between kitchen, living and garden is particularly compelling. A café window and expansive double doors open directly to the substantial alfresco deck, creating an effortless continuation of the living space outdoors. Built-in seating and festoon lighting set an inviting mood for long lunches and evening entertaining, while the landscaped, low-maintenance garden and garden shed provide a private and practical backdrop.
Three generous bedrooms form peaceful private quarters, each retaining its original fireplace and complemented by built-in robes and individual split-system heating and cooling. The living areas are similarly climate controlled, ensuring comfort throughout the seasons.
The fireplaces are among the home’s most evocative heritage elements. Each has been professionally repointed using traditional lime-and-sand methods, carefully chosen to preserve the integrity and authenticity of the original Victorian brickwork. It is this attention to detail that distinguishes the renovation, celebrating what was already beautiful rather than concealing it beneath contemporary finishes.
The family bathroom continues this refined dialogue between old and new. A luxurious clawfoot bath, separate shower and integrated European laundry are framed by heritage-inspired detailing and finishes, creating a space that feels both elegant and deeply connected to the architecture of the home.
Practicality has been considered with equal care. Gated off-street parking is complemented by easy street parking for guests, while solar panels enhance the home’s energy credentials. Three-phase power available at the front of the property provides a strong foundation for future EV charging.
