Built c.1853, the Grunberg House survives as one of only a few rare examples of Melbourne's first gold rush inspired architectural boom. Immaculately preserved amid its early flowering garden on a sizeable 524 sqm approx., bounded by an open laneway to the east and a rear frontage to Little James Street, it presents an extraordinary opportunity to live and entertain in heritage surroundings of such landmark significance, whilst remaining merely moments from the contemporary lifestyle appeal of Church and Swan Streets, the Sports precinct, MCG and of course, the CBD. Sheltered by its beautifully deep original verandah, an impressive double fronted floorplan features three large principle rooms, currently presented as two bedrooms and an impressive living/dining domain with garden access. A well equipped kitchen and walk in pantry, bathroom with freestanding bath and extensive built in storage serve with accomplished finesse assisted by paved alfresco entertaining spaces and separate large third bedroom with additional living, basic kitchen, bathroom and rear pedestrian access converted from the original stable buildings. With high ceilings, original hardwood floors, open fireplace, bay window, hydronic heating, alarm all within steps of the Barkly Gardens. Absolutely unforgettable!
