Architecturally transformed by Melbourne studio Ardo, this grand balconied Victorian residence has been comprehensively reworked for contemporary living and entertaining, complete with secure OSP via ROW, just one block from Armstrong Street Village and moments from the beach and city-bound light rail.
Stripped back to its shell while preserving key heritage details, the visionary interior is immediately captivating with soaring ornate ceilings, French oak floors and superb natural light pouring in from multiple angles. A grand arched hallway introduces the formal sitting room or potential fourth bedroom, its elaborate cornices and open fireplace complemented by a contemporary marble surround, before the original architecture gives way to the spectacular rear domain. Expansive living and dining spaces extend beneath high ceilings to a sublime marble kitchen with AEG appliances and full-height 2-pac cabinetry in warm neutral tones. A scullery and substantial laundry sit discreetly behind a concealed pocket door, keeping the kitchen beautifully streamlined for entertainment. Stunning sunlight pours through steel-framed glazing, while a floating concrete step marks the transition to a private alfresco garden with low-maintenance landscaping and gated vehicle access from the rear.
Upstairs, three generous, robed bedrooms accompany a fitted study nook, including the main suite with direct access to the iron-lace balcony and an exceptional walk-in robe leading to a twin ensuite. Lit naturally from above, its curved forms, fluted travertine tiling and micro-rendered surfaces create a spa-like setting, while the family bathroom continues the curved detailing around a deep soaking bath and wet-room shower. Appointed with a powder room, zoned reverse-cycle heating and cooling and automated garden irrigation, it sits within walking distance of MSAC, cafés, the No. 12 tram and No. 96 light rail, the address also sits within sought-after school zones including Albert Park College.
