Displaying an artful fusion of two eras coexisting in beautiful harmony, this Victorian terrace home is a peaceful and luxurious haven in lifestyle surrounds. Beyond a quaint lacework verandah, the home brims with natural light, contrasting 10-foot ceilings, broad cornices, and a Victorian archway with sleek Oak and exposed concrete floors, stunning pendant lights, and sophisticated stone surfaces. The open plan living domain is bathed in northern light from a central atrium and courtyard, each with Japanese Maple trees to tranquilly infuse a kaleidoscope of colours through the space. With dedicated areas for everyday relaxation and lively dinner parties beneath the towering 4.7m ceiling, conversation flows effortlessly to the recently renovated kitchen featuring a full suite of Smeg appliances, stone-topped counters and breakfast bar. Upstairs, a second living and entertaining domain with kitchenette offers versatility as a third bedroom, home office, or artist's studio, connecting with a uniquely expansive rooftop terrace. Offering a treetop panorama for vibrant gatherings and peaceful retreat amid easy-care gardens, the terrace is backdropped by a skyscraper horizon, and as day turns to night, the city's festive fireworks provide a dazzling spectacle of colour over the night sky. Downstairs, two bedrooms are generously sized to provide private sanctuary, serviced by a central modern bathroom. With additional features of split system heating and cooling, and right-of-way access, the home is perfectly positioned for lifestyle, paces from Rathdowne Village, Curtain Square gardens, and city-bound trams, and minutes from Lygon Street's renowned restaurants and shopping, Carlton Baths, local schools and prestigious universities, and the Eastern Freeway for a quick commute to the peninsula.
