Overview

Landmark home & holding on prestigious Powell

Charming, charismatic, and altogether captivating, this 1880s Victorian with no heritage overlay offers an array of options to rejuvenate, extend upward and backward, or start anew with one or more luxury homes on one of South Yarra’s most prestigious streets. Only six doors from Toorak Road and its famed shopping, dining, and afterhours scenes, the home’s tuckpointed, Hawthorn brick façade remains as alluring today as it was when built before Federation, introducing a spacious interior ripe with possibilities. Baltic pine floors, ornate ceilings, and a corbel arched hallway headline a range of period details, while a workable plan sees two large bedrooms and smart bathrooms complemented by vast living and entertainment areas. All day sunlight, calming garden outlooks, and a feature fireplace enrich the space, while a wraparound breakfast bar and multiple stovetops, ovens, and sinks offer an ideal foundation for a gourmet kitchen in a statement renovation. Highlighting the block’s outstanding dimensions, a wonderfully private backyard is adorned with swathes of greenery, while two combined, original sheds, reverse cycle heating/cooling, a full size laundry, and parking for up to six elevate the home’s appeal to no end. A true rarity among eminent surrounds, the timeless home and substantial holding sit just steps from Chapel Street’s famous retail and nightlife, tranquil Fawkner Park, the Yarra River, Botanic Gardens, and trains/trams for quick access to Melbourne Park, the Arts Centre, and CBD.
