Discreetly hidden from the street, this amazing light-drenched home stands out from the crowd with its charming aesthetics, contemporary style, and absolutely brilliant city-edge location. Lovingly renovated and extended with everything thought of while still retaining its heritage appeal, the c1880 cottage is introduced by a private deck before preceding across a copper threshold to the interior framed by gloriously high ceilings and Baltic Pine floorboards. The hallway flows past two queen-sized bedrooms with built-in robes before culminating in an expansive open-plan living and dining room with a fireplace adding toasty warmth and architectural timber detailing adding visual interest. The high-end kitchen makes a beautiful statement with its Emperor White CaesarStone benchtops, top-of-the-range Neff cooking appliances and dishwasher, double brass sink, integrated Fisher Paykel fridge and freezer, and bi-fold windows with a deep external sill/breakfast bar promoting a seamless indoor-outdoor entertaining experience. Two sets of bi-fold doors deliver a smooth transition to an alfresco deck and garden highlighted by a flourishing lemon tree. The entire top level is dedicated to a third robed bedroom and generous balcony enjoying never-to-be-built-out views of the city, AAMI Stadium and the MCG. A designer bathroom with on-trend soak-tub and shower, laundry room, ornamental fireplaces, ducted heating, evaporative cooling, skylights, outdoor storeroom, reading nook with storage in the living room, original solid-timber floors, and prized off-street parking complete the scenario. So close to everything yet so quiet you hardly ever hear a thing except for the occasional roar from the crowds at the MCG, the secret sanctuary is located just moments from Bridge Road's shops, cafés and restaurants and trams, and is within quick and easy reach of West Richmond and Richmond Station, Victoria Gardens, Gleadell Street Market, the sporting precinct, and the walking trails alongside the Yarra River.
