From discreet single-fronted Victorian origins emerges a breathtaking double-storey family residence, expertly transformed by Zeno Entity Architecture with striking vision to capture light, height and an uplifting sense of modern living. The result is an environment of spectacular scale and design detail, opening to a prized north-east rear orientation that allows daylight to penetrate deep into the plan.
A traditional arched hallway introduces soaring proportions and a clear access to a substantial rear living and dining space. A 5.5-metre expanse of glass slides away to the high-walled courtyard for year-round outdoor connection, whilst solid American oak joinery brings a warm natural finish, concealing a fitted study for two and abundant storage, including custom wine racks. Full height sheers and curved marble within the adjoining kitchen soften the aesthetic, bringing quiet luxury and high performance with Miele cooking and fully integrated refrigeration.
Wide oak stairs lead up to the northeast main suite, delivering a private domain with a walk-in robe beneath an automated skylight and en-suite with twin showers, and an Apaiser freestanding bath. Additional bedrooms enjoy superb natural light and clever storage, including a ground-floor bedroom with robes and semi-ensuite access, as well as an upper-level bedroom with a spacious retreat. Keypad entry, hydronic heating, reverse-cycle heating/cooling, 5kW solar power, motorised blinds, attic storage and double glazing add to the overall sophistication, steps from Gasworks Park, the beach, St Vincent Gardens, Albert Park College and Primary School, the No.1 tram, the village and Victoria Avenue cafes.
