Luxuriously transformed beyond its classic block-front façade, this once charming Victorian residence now reveals an inspired designer renovation, pairing its heritage presence with a light-filled interior shaped by a quiet European influence, set within one of Middle Park’s most coveted tree-lined streets.
A revived garden frontage gives way to interiors that retain their original character through a corbelled arch hallway, elevated by pale oak floors and overhead skylights pulling natural light deep within, with the adjoining powder room finished in Grenades wallpaper by À Paris chez Antoinette Poisson, reinforcing a subtle French sensibility. That progression leads to an open-plan living and dining domain introduced by an arched steel-framed door in a soft sage finish, continuing through matching glazing and French doors that extend to a landscaped courtyard terrace inspired by a relaxed garden setting.
Bespoke joinery and suede banquette seating define the living zone, connecting to a Carrara marble kitchen equipped with Smeg appliances, integrated refrigeration and dishwasher, a butler’s pantry and an oversized island designed to host with ease. The ground-floor main suite follows an elegant palette, with wainscoting, custom walk-in robes and a marble-appointed bathroom featuring a Victoria + Albert bath, while upstairs adds two further bedrooms with built-in robes, a fitted study and an ensuite detailed with handmade tiles.
Quality English Perrin & Rowe and Devol tapware, Turner Hastings sinks, a marble-finished laundry with its own lightwell courtyard, reverse cycle heating and cooling, double glazing, garden lighting, water tank and pedestrian ROW access complete an impeccable home with peerless attention to detail, positioned within a short walk from the beach, Middle Park Village, Albert Park Lake, excellent schools and city-bound transport.
