Revamped for instant luxe while retaining all the charm of old-world roots, this first-class Victorian delivers a lifestyle of spacious, sun splashed splendour in the heart of Richmond locale that’s among inner Melbourne’s most revered. Serene and secluded courtesy of a high fence and mature hedges, the home’s eminently practical interior is primed for family life, with a ground floor master, guest room, and upstairs third bedroom accompanied by walk in and built in robes, a floor heated master ensuite, and main bathroom with a shower, bath, and ventilating louvres. A gas fire for cosy nights come wintertime, a central living room flanks a back dining area with a soaring, raked ceiling, spilling through bifold doors onto a full width alfresco and backyard brilliant for a Sunday barbecue with family and friends. Class leading Miele appliances, sleek stone benches, and a waterfall breakfast bar feature in a kitchen tailor made for the avid chef and regular host, while other highlights of the home include secure parking (wide lane access and retractable carport roof), heating/cooling, timber floors, a European laundry, video intercom, heated towel rails, city skyline views from upstairs, and front yard perfect for lounging among greenery. In zones for acclaimed Melbourne Girls’ College, Richmond High, and Richmond Primary, it’s mere footsteps to Swan, Church, and Burnley Street shops, cafés, restaurants, and pubs, Richmond icon Bridge Road, two train stations, Melbourne Park/MCG trams, Barkly Gardens, and the Yarra Trail for a scenic bike ride to the city via Birrarung Marr.
