Flawlessly transformed through a breathtaking designer vision, this four-bedroom Edwardian residence delivers a peerless lifestyle base for modern families, evoking a warm, understated sense of luxury shaped by natural light and materiality. Across two spectacular levels, the period façade gives way to a striking contemporary interior opening to private garden spaces for living and entertaining with secure parking via ROW, all within a short walk from Carlisle Street’s vibrant cafés and city-bound transport.
Architectural drama builds along the skylit hallway, with extensive storage, a privately positioned fitted study and a central garden lightwell enclosed by full-height glass. A suspended oak-and-steel staircase creates a stunning focal point as it rises to the first level, as oak flooring transitions to polished concrete through the expansive living and dining domain. Stainless steel benches, integrated refrigeration, and premium Bosch appliances in the kitchen are complemented by the indoor-outdoor layout, where bi-fold windows open to the internal garden and oversized glazing extends the room to the cobblestone courtyard. An integrated barbecue and landscaped surrounds support entertaining outdoors, with automated gates allowing the courtyard to double as secure rear parking when required.
Overlooking the garden, the generous ground-floor main suite features fitted robes and a luxurious ensuite finished in Japanese ceramic tiles with a marble vanity. A second robed bedroom is served by a sublime bathroom, with a marble vanity and a bath, while upstairs, two further bedrooms with built-in robes share a similarly appointed family bathroom in neutral tones.
Complete with ground-floor slab heating, architectural lighting, reverse-cycle heating/cooling, double glazing, a wealth of bespoke storage over each level, a water tank and a dedicated laundry, it offers an uncompromising lifestyle base of effortless luxury, all within a short stroll to local cafés, Balaclava Station and city-bound trams, with Elwood Beach, St Kilda Botanical Gardens, and leading schools only minutes away.
