A remarkably rare opportunity at an esteemed St James Park Estate address, 'Isabella' (1874) is a superbly-converted Victorian where this beautifully-renovated boutique apartment evokes all of the grandeur and romanticism of the era. Designed for an unrivalled low-maintenance lifestyle experience, dual entrance from a classically arched foyer and relaxing garden veranda reveals a marvellous living room warmed by a wonderful gas fireplace. Here, a soaring heritage ceiling, polished Baltic pine floors and tall period windows frame an exquisite outlook over the leafy courtyard to the landmark tower of 'Hawthorn House'. Adjoining is a study alcove with desk and storage leading to a marble-lined kitchen with stainless-steel appliances, drawer dishwasher and a European-style laundry. The bathroom too is brilliantly finished in marble and central to 2 bright bedrooms including large main with a wall of fitted built-in robes and double-glazing. Including heating, intercom and spacious under-house storage, this breathtaking mansion apartment also offers secure car space via remote-control gate in a prestigious Yarra River-side pocket near the excellent shopping and restaurants of Hawthorn and Richmond, city-bound trams, train station and Melbourne's sports and entertainment precinct.
