Commanding a premier position along prestigious Queens Parade, this double-fronted, double-storey residence stands as a masterclass in period craftsmanship and sophisticated modern living. Behind a manicured garden domain and framed by exquisite handcrafted stained-glass artistry, a tiled pathway draws you under a sheltered portico, opening into a home of rare character and architectural distinction.
The ground floor unfolds into an expansive living sanctuary designed for effortless entertaining. Beyond, a dedicated dining area transitions seamlessly into a culinary suite boasting stone countertops, a walk-in pantry, and direct access to a tranquil, private courtyard sanctuary.
On the upper level, a light-filled central bathroom serves as a true homage to the home's 1908 heritage, centred around its restored original freestanding clawfoot bath set beneath a sunlit skylight. Additionally, there's a quaint Juliet balcony which reveals panoramic views across the city skyline, a romantic setting for evening reflection or taking in festive fireworks.
Complemented by handcrafted leadlight details throughout, integrated climate-controlled comfort, and a private ground-floor laundry and powder room, this landmark residence offers an unrivalled lifestyle, steps away from the vibrant heart of Fitzroy North village, lush Edinburgh Gardens, and direct connections to Melbourne's CBD.
