Rarely does a home of this calibre come to market - particularly on Canning Street, one of Carlton's most tightly held and admired residential boulevards.
Architecturally designed and built in 1974, this remarkable residence has been recently and respectfully renovated to honour its original design feature's, while delivering the comfort and functionality of modern living. Signature architectural elements have been preserved, with every update carefully considered.
Immediately striking, the home's timber-lined ceilings, exposed brickwork and dramatic changes in level create a sense of warmth, depth and architectural rhythm seldom found today. Terrazzo flooring flows throughout the ground level, grounding the home firmly in its era while feeling entirely contemporary. A newly appointed kitchen, bathrooms and laundry have been seamlessly integrated, ensuring the house lives as well as it looks.
The ground floor unfolds across multiple living zones, offering exceptional space, flexibility and flow. A sunken family room, complete with custom built-in seating and a cast-iron wood heater forms the heart of the home, opening via sliding doors to a paved alfresco terrace and leafy garden courtyard. It is a private, sun-filled retreat designed for both quiet moments and effortless entertaining.
Upstairs, an expansive additional living area provides outstanding versatility, ideal as a rumpus room, study or third bedroom. Two generous bedrooms with bespoke storage are complemented by a beautifully updated family bathroom and an additional powder room.
Set within a quiet residential streetscape yet unmistakably inner-city, the home enjoys the rare privilege of CBD skyline views from the front door, paired with a village-style calm that defines the appeal of this coveted address.
