Rich in period grandeur, yet guided by a contemporary eye, this Victorian terrace has been reimagined with a focus on light, flow and modern-day ease, allowing original beauty and a sun-oriented transformation to merge in a way that feels cohesive and deeply connected to its coveted lifestyle surroundings. Set along a quiet, tree-lined stretch near Albert Park Lake, Mills Street cafés and MSAC, it delivers immense appeal both inside and out, with three separate street frontages culminating in secure double garaging with remote access via Canterbury Place.
Tessellated tiles and leadlight introduce magnificent interiors, defined by high ceilings, oversized proportions, and a northern rear aspect, amplified by skylights and full-width glazing in the open-plan rear. A gracious formal sitting room with a gas fire set within the original marble surround leads into an informal living domain, where a bank of automatic Velux skylights responds to the seasons, complemented by a stone-finished entertainer’s kitchen appointed with European appliances. Bi-fold doors draw the living area outward to the northern rear courtyard, framed by draped greenery and a plumbed built-in BBQ, creating a natural setting for sun-filled entertaining.
Upstairs, three substantial bedrooms are introduced by the balconied main suite, where an open fireplace and built-in robes add presence, while two further bedrooms enjoy northern city outlooks. A versatile home office, with ample storage, offers the option to be converted into a fourth bedroom, supported by a guest powder room on the ground level. Two adjacent bathrooms have been stylishly renovated, including one with a Japanese-style bath and heated towel rails.
Located for lifestyle excellence, zoned for Albert Park College and Middle Park Primary School and within walking distance to the beach, the 96 light rail, Albert Park Lake recreation fields, and village cafes, it offers an impeccable family environment, complete with hydronic heating, split system air conditioning in every room, abundant storage, new loop-pile carpets upstairs, and a European laundry.
