Owning a prominent beachside address amongst Albert Park’s most prestigious streetscapes, this landmark Hawthorn brick Victorian terrace displays exquisite era-typical proportions, spectacular designer style and a peerless lifestyle on the village edge.
Captivating from the first impression, expert renovations transcend eras, highlighting the soaring ceiling heights and decorative wide arch through custom vertical wainscotting and designer light fitting within the entrance hall. Richly stained Herringbone oak flooring contrasts with the Italian marble framing of the original working fireplace within the formal living room, positioned to soak in the northern sun through the bay window and interconnect with the expansive dining room and light court.
Statuario Marble benchtops streamline the transition from old to new, continuing the flow to the stunning Miele-appointed kitchen and open-plan living/dining, where intelligently-designed storage lines the walls and steel-framed full-height glass extends to sunny garden aspects. Al-fresco dining and entertainment are shrouded in privacy here, with secure pedestrian laneway access, low-maintenance greenery and an automated awning for shade overhead. Thoughtfully arranged upstairs, the three bedrooms are led by the full-width main with built-in robes, an OFP and a bay outlook from the broad balcony. Two additional robed bedrooms follow, each sharing a beautifully detailed central bathroom with a freestanding bath, dual vanity and underfloor heating.
Exquisitely styled and practical in its design, the home is also appointed with a concealed ground-floor powder room, a European laundry, ample storage, including a substantial lined attic, luxe 100% wool carpets, hydronic heating and split system air conditioning. The result is measured, resolved and distinctly aligned with the calibre of its setting, exclusively positioned within steps of Pipis Kiosk and Albert Park Beach, and a short walk to the village, Albert Park College, MSAC, the lake, the 96 light rail station and zoned for Middle Park Primary School.
