Superbly positioned in the heart of Albert Park Village, this transformed 1880s Victorian residence's grandeur and elegance provide the perfect backdrop to serene, inner-city living. Advantaged by a deep, private rear courtyard and city views from its northern elevated aspect, it delivers an exceptional setting for relaxed entertaining and day-to-day ease, steps from cafes, restaurants, MSAC, Albert Park Lake and the light rail.
Secure and high-fenced, the tesselated-tiled porch entrance forms an endearing prelude to breathtaking interiors, where a grand ornate arch is met with a golden ceiling, Japan-black timber flooring and a free-flowing open layout that combines garden spaces with beautifully curated living areas. A gas fireplace creates ambience, designer lighting and unique ornate cornicing traverse eras, and zoned al-fresco spaces add undeniable allure and space designed to move with every season. The rear kitchen, with honed porcelain benchtops, contrasting navy cabinetry, Neff cooking appliances and Asko dishwasher, caters to hosts and is supported by a substantial under-floor wine cellar. Triple stacked sliders open in two directions, fully transitioning to the outdoors, where bluestone paving, towering Manchurian pear and automated irrigation form a brilliant environment for quiet moments or full-scale entertainment.
A full-width main bedroom headlines the upper level, with striking city outlooks, full-width balcony, double glazing, and an ensuite bathroom, followed by two additional robed bedrooms, one with an open fire and a stylishly renovated bathroom with on-trend finishes. Situated within a short walk from Albert Park Primary and Albert Park College, the beach, number #1 tram, St Vincent Gardens, and minutes from the CBD and South Melbourne Market, it offers an enviable lifestyle, complete with a ground-floor powder room, concealed laundry, split system heating/cooling, brand new carpets, abundant storage and four original working fireplaces.
