Hidden within a tightly held, park-side cul-de-sac just steps from trams and lively café precincts, this charming double fronted Victorian has been beautifully revived for contemporary ease across a single level, offering idyllic versatility, natural light and garden serenity within a dynamic lifestyle hub.
Beyond a towering hedge, a striking period façade gives way to Baltic pine floors and soaring ceilings through a wide arched hallway, introducing two substantial bedrooms with original fireplaces, built-in robes and ornate ceiling roses, alongside a third bedroom that continues the heritage charm toward the rear. Because the proportions are generous from the outset, the transition into modern living feels natural rather than forced, flowing into the expansive living and dining areas before stepping down into a well-appointed kitchen with stainless steel appliances, timber benchtops and character-filled feature floor tiling.
A glass door extends the interior outward, so the private rear garden becomes a true extension of everyday use, opening to the covered entertainer’s deck, complete with a large wood-burning fireplace and café blinds, while lawn space offers room for children to play. To the rear, a versatile studio (formerly a recording studio) with deep loft storage and independent laneway access functions as a fourth bedroom, guest accommodation or a work-from-home base, ensuring flexibility as circumstances evolve.
Set on 410 sqm (approx), with ROW access and off-street parking, it also features two bright bathrooms, brand-new ducted heating and split system air-conditioning, a new switchboard, and automated irrigation. Steps from St Kilda Road trams, Jim Duggan Reserve and playground, Carlisle Street dining and cafes, Albert Park Lake, and leading schools including St Mary’s, St Michael’s and Wesley College, it delivers an irresistible family base with every convenience at hand.
