On the doorstep of Powlett Reserve and a mere block from Melbournes iconic, heritage Fitzroy Gardens and Captain Cooks Cottage, is this terrace home with surprising proportions.
Beyond its modest façade, a blend of preserved classic elements are complemented by a fully modern renovation.
Formal living and dining rooms embrace the front of the home with built in marble fireplace, while the family sized kitchen with marble benchtops, integrated dishwasher, gas cook top and an abundance of storage, extend to informal living or dining with floor to ceiling glass doors leading to a balcony with tranquil treed outlook.
Three generous bedrooms, plus study or fourth bedroom, the main with its own en-suite and balcony. A vast ground floor multi-functional room lends itself to home theatre, kids rumpus room, or home gymnasium.
A roof top glass conservatory from which to watch the night sky, with built-in kitchenette, a dumb waiter and a deck with views that stretch across East Melbourne, is ideal for BBQs.
Other features include an internal waterwall which runs the entire height of the property, a floating staircase, 2 fireplaces, storage/blue stone wine cellar, hydronic heating and air conditioning, 2 additional full bathrooms, parking for two cars with excellent rear lane access ( Nunn Lane) and further two on street Council Permits.
Walk to Melbournes famous sporting precinct, the Melbourne Cricket Ground, AAMI Park, the Rod Laver Arena, and our CBD, for shopping, restaurants and wine bars, theatres and the Arts, a very enviable lifestyle in one of Melbournes most desired locations, while also offering outstanding public transport in the way of trams, trains, buses and easy access to both the M1 and Eastern freeway.
