One of Melbourne's most significant beachfront holdings now presents a tightly held opportunity to secure a landmark c.1906 balconied Federation residence, commanding 996sqm of north-facing established gardens directly fronting Port Phillip Bay. Its position is absolute and cannot be replicated, set opposite Catani Gardens with uninterrupted water outlooks, steps to Albert Park Lake and the Grand Prix circuit, and moments from the city's most recognised beachfront dining and leading schools.
Interiors are magnificent and true to the era, with hardwood and leadlight arches, pressed metal ceilings reaching 14 feet on the ground floor and 12 feet above, and a series of grand formal reception rooms that lend versatility to the enormous floor plan. Rear zones prioritise contemporary entertaining, with a Miele-appointed kitchen, open living and dining, and steel-framed doors that connect directly to a north-facing alfresco and to established gardens enclosed by Jacaranda and Magnolia.
A king-sized main bedroom with water views, plus two bathrooms, is positioned on the ground floor, with the broad staircase, framed by a stunning stained-glass window, leading to four further bedrooms, a third bathroom and a deep terrace balcony with sweeping views over Catani Gardens to the glistening bay beyond. Beautifully presented and appointed with secure, dual-driveway access, parking for five, an underground cellar, ducted and electric heating, garden reticulation, intercom security and automated gates, it sits just steps from the sand, the Royal Melbourne Yacht Club, St Kilda Sea Baths, beachfront dining, elite schools and is only moments from Middle Park Village and the city. A legacy home in one of Australia's most exclusive coastal addresses, this is a generational opportunity, and it is available now.
