Occupying a prized, tree-lined Middle Park position between Albert Park Lake and the bay, this freestanding solid-brick Victorian retains its original character while opening onto a remarkably secluded, north-west-facing garden, creating an immediately appealing home with immense future potential (STCA).
Original Victorian detail continues along the arched hallway beneath high ceilings, introducing two generous bedrooms, each with built-in robes and fireplaces with original mantles. Two lightwell courtyards flank the central living room with its Edwardian fireplace, before the home opens to an extended kitchen and dining area beneath soaring timber-lined ceilings, with high-set windows and painted exposed brick reflecting the northern light deep into the interior. Sliding doors open to a sun-drenched deck beneath an electric awning, with established gardens wrapping the rear in complete privacy, forming a tranquil backdrop for outdoor living, before stepping down to a lower paved courtyard.
A family bathroom with walk-in shower, large dedicated laundry, ducted heating and cooling, irrigation to both gardens and pedestrian ROW access provide everything needed for now, while the coveted address adds another layer of appeal, with Fraser Street light rail station and tram route 16 to Collins Street just steps away, and Armstrong Street Village, Cowderoy Street cafés, Albert Park Lake's recreational fields and the beach all close by.
