Distinguished by its double-fronted solid brick façade and garden elegance, Doutta Galla, a magnificent Edwardian home, radiates warmth and grace, unfolding through light-filled proportions to a private garden sanctuary and substantial 10m-wide garage/workshop with ROW access, just 150m from the sand.
Beyond landscaped gardens and tuckpointed exterior, the interiors captivate from the outset, enriched by intricate leadlight, Baltic pine floors and soaring ceilings that draw the eye toward the garden beyond. Three to four spacious bedrooms, two featuring ornate fireplaces, with the main suite boasting a gallery-style walk-in robe, a private lightwell courtyard, and direct access to the central, sky-lit bathroom. An elegant sitting room with a detailed, open fireplace flows to the rear, where a sky-lit, contemporary kitchen with stone benchtops and electric appliances introduces the open-plan living and dining domain, bathed in natural light.
Tasmanian oak continues underfoot, while a wall of windows and French doors unfold to idyllic gardens filled with seasonal colour and lush greenery, delivering beauty and complete privacy. The al-fresco deck, shaded by established ornamental grapevines, creates a picturesque setting for outdoor dining and entertaining, with vibrant floral borders shifting beautifully through the seasons. Accessed via a broad laneway, the 10m-wide garage includes a workshop extension and offers potential for an upper-level studio (STCA).
Perfectly positioned to enjoy the restaurants, cafés and boutiques of Armstrong Street, with trams, Middle Park Primary, the light rail, MSAC and Albert Park Village all within easy reach, this impressive home also includes ducted heating, split system heating/cooling, a European laundry, skylights throughout, an irrigation system, and the scope to transform further (STCA). Land size: 431sqm approx.
