Overview

Sun-drenched Edwardian, two blocks from the beach

Extended and enlightened within gloriously lush surroundings, this exquisite solid brick Edwardian delivers a brilliant single-level lifestyle between St Kilda Botanical Gardens and the beach, with the added bonus of secure off-street parking via ROW. Positioned within a prime tree-lined street, just footsteps from local hotspot Dickens Street Grocer, this long-admired address places Acland Street’s cafes, bars and city-bound transport within immediate reach, creating a relaxed setting that feels both peaceful and brilliantly alive. Baltic pine floors, soaring ceilings and an elegant L-shaped hallway capture the timeless elegance of the Edwardian era, before the accommodation expands to the rear into an extraordinary open-plan living, dining and family domain. North-facing gardens draw abundant natural light into the interior, while café windows and broad openings extend entertaining to the rear alfresco deck. Two wood-burning fireplaces, including an ornate original fireplace beneath pressed-tin ceilings in the lounge, enrich the expansive living zones, while the kitchen incorporates stainless steel appliances and excellent storage, perfect for intimate or grand-scale hosting. Three generous bedrooms include a magnificent garden-fronted main bedroom with a bay window and ornate fireplace, along with two additional bedrooms with built-in robes and two bathrooms, including the renovated rear bathroom with bath and an adjoining laundry opening directly onto the deck. Complete with ducted heating, split system air-conditioning, plantation shutters and garden irrigation, this charismatic solid-brick Edwardian is an undeniable lifestyle winner, positioned within moments of excellent schools, the 96 tram, St Kilda Marina and a vibrant selection of beachfront dining and cafes.
