You buy the street first. Griffith Street, known locally as Millionaire's Row, sits between the end of Oxlade Drive and the start of Merthyr Road, on original Merthyr Estate land. The riverbank along this stretch is private, with no public boardwalk passing the river side. One of only twelve homes carries an address on this exclusive riverfront street. Opportunities here are infrequent.
The residence is architect built across two living levels above a lower level garage, five bedrooms and one designed as a media room, two bathrooms, two powder rooms and three car accommodation between the lock up garage and the gated driveway.
Oak runs through the living level, anchored by a waterfall edge stone island with matching stone splashback, soft close cabinetry in white and natural timber veneer, integrated double wall ovens and an induction cooktop with ducted rangehood. Behind it sits a butler's pantry with its own benchtop, open timber shelving and an integrated wine fridge. A second living zone is set around a glass fronted linear gas fireplace that doubles as the entry divider.
The living space opens to a timber lined alfresco with ceiling fan, built in outdoor kitchen and BBQ, looking over a frameless glass fenced pool. Upstairs, plantation shutters, built in timber joinery and ducted air conditioning throughout, with stone look tiling floor to ceiling in the bathrooms, freestanding baths, floating vanities and a walk in robe to the main.
The Sydney Street CityCat terminal is a short walk away, around eleven minutes on the water to the CBD with Howard Smith Wharves one stop before it. The Riverwalk runs along the water to Howard Smith Wharves and on into the city. Merthyr Village, Coles, the New Farm Deli and more than twenty specialty retailers are a few minutes on foot, James Street is 1.8 kilometres away, and the address sits in the New Farm State School catchment.
You buy the street first. This one comes with a house that needs nothing.
