Distinguished by its grand facade and ornate period detail, this double-storey Victorian residence rises behind an intricate cast-iron fence and manicured garden in one of Albert Park's most tightly held streetscapes. A graceful arched hallway with leadlight accents and soaring proportions makes a grand introduction, extending to a richly appointed sitting room and formal dining domain, both bathed in natural light and joined by beautifully preserved period symmetry.
Every inch speaks to the grandeur of its era, heightened by meticulous restoration and architectural vision to the rear, leading through a steel-framed glass door to a contemporary living domain and gourmet kitchen appliances, black stone finishes and generous joinery underscore the space, linking effortlessly with a relaxed open-plan living area warmed by a wood-burning fireplace and original exposed brick feature wall. Thoughtful transitions continue through deep-set steel windowsills and bifold doors to the sun-drenched courtyard, where broad decking and private garden walls extend the footprint, delivering unexpected serenity within a high-energy lifestyle address.
Upstairs, skylit stairs connect three generous bedrooms, each with built-in desks and robes, and an elegantly appointed main bathroom. The separate main suite with wall-to-wall robes, an Italian marble fireplace and designer en-suite steps out to a full-width balcony, also with double glazing for sound insulation. Hydronic heating, reverse-cycle air conditioning, and a European laundry add daily ease, while a rear laneway and brilliant access to the village, the beach, elite schools, city-bound transport and popular wine bars and restaurants further elevate its impressive offering.
