Meticulously transformed with a comprehensive, brand-new renovation, this charming solid-brick Victorian home reveals an enticing contemporary dual-level interior behind its timeless period façade, with light-filled living spaces, a private garden courtyard and secure off-street parking via ROW. Directly opposite Eastern Reserve and within a short walk from the vibrant attractions of Clarendon Street and South Melbourne Market, it delivers exceptional lock-and-leave inner-city appeal, with trams, Albert Park Lake, and a choice of popular cafes moments from the front door.
Sun-drenched proportions are enhanced by quality engineered oak floors and high ceilings, flowing through the striking hallway arch to a generous ground-floor bedroom, retaining its ornate ceilings and an original OFP. The adjoining, sky-lit bathroom is beautifully appointed with designer full-height tiling, underfloor heating and a soaring skylight set above the shower, with a spiral staircase leading upstairs to two robed bedrooms and a second, equally stylish skylit bathroom. Sunlight continues to stream through the lower level, with a glass ceiling over the open dining area and extending past the sleek stone kitchen into the open-plan living room, with an electric fireplace and bi-fold doors opening to a serene red brick courtyard that affords idyllic privacy for al-fresco entertaining.
Presented in brand-new condition and complete with split-system air conditioning, Smeg cooking appliances, laundry facilities, excellent storage throughout and gated rear access via Bank Street for off-street parking for one, this appealing parkside base offers the ultimate in laid-back luxury, moments from city-bound trams, the Royal Botanic Gardens, King's Domain, MSAC and Melbourne's renowned arts precinct.
