Overview

'Hazelwood Terrace' c1865

Constructed in 1865 with a prized second frontage to Martin Street at the rear and remote garaging for two, this distinguished residence within 'Hazelwood Terrace' is one of Emerald Hill's most significant Italianate homes. Set within a heritage-listed Howe Crescent row and surrounded by stately architecture, mature tree-lined gardens and Melbourne's finest lifestyle attractions, including Albert Park Lake, South Melbourne Market, the Arts Precinct, and the city's leading schools and cultural institutions. Commissioned by George Black and designed by Charles Webb, the architect responsible for Melbourne Grammar and the South Melbourne Town Hall, the home's marble and bluestone checkerboard path, ornate façade, and manicured front garden create a striking introduction. Beyond the wide, arched hallway, a sequence of formal lounge and dining rooms unfolds beneath elaborate ceiling roses, each with an original fireplace, including an updated gas fire in the lounge room. The Miele-appointed kitchen opens beneath timber-lined ceilings to an informal living and dining area. Double-glazed bi-fold doors extend outdoors to the spectacular gardens and terrace, privately framed by mature plantings that form remarkable serenity and beauty. A mezzanine reading room with built-in shelving and operational Velux skylight complements three substantial bedrooms on the upper level, including a grand, balconied main bedroom with dual robes and an Italian marble fireplace. Offering easy access to the CBD via tram and light rail, and situated on the cusp of Albert Park Village and Clarendon Street's retail and dining options, this impressive address defines a privileged lifestyle position. It is also a short walk to MSAC, the Royal Botanic Gardens, and the Domain, with additional appointments including two bathrooms, a European-style laundry, hydronic heating, split system AC, garden irrigation, back-to-base alarm, and a secure garage with EV charging.
