With all the charm of its period origins and the turnkey luxe of an architect’s renovation, this refreshed and rejuvenated residence is a lifestyle haven surrounded by native flora and positioned magnificently by Bridge Road and the Yarra River. On the site of the historic Richmond Racecourse converted in the 1940s, this exceptional home wastes no space, enjoys brilliant natural light, and takes every detail into account, emphasising practicality and enjoyability in daily life. Distinct from main areas and glancing across gardens, a quiet front sitting room complements wonderfully open dining and living zones; the latter sublime for lounging on a window seat and soaking in winter sun. Three broad bedrooms all boast built in robes, while a combined bath/shower, heated towel rails, and stylish floor tiles enhance a chic central bathroom. Featuring clever fitted storage, ventilating louvres, all day rays, a reader’s retreat, and glimpses of the city skyline, a fully equipped upstairs office comfortably houses at least two professionals, while other highlights of the home include a gourmet kitchen with ample cabinet space, a rolling island bench, and premium appliances, a full size laundry with second toilet, ducted heating, split system heating/cooling, hardwood floors, attic storage, shed, irrigation and integrated grey water, solar hot water, plantation shutters, and off street parking for one vehicle. With neighbouring Burnley Park revealing the picturesque trail skirting the Yarra, it’s mere footsteps to Richmond’s thriving bars, restaurants, and cafés, Victoria Gardens shops, childcare centres, acclaimed Hawthorn West Primary School and Melbourne Girls’ College (both zoned), and trains/trams streamlining access to the city centre, the MCG, Camberwell and Kew Junctions, and beyond.
