Completed just 18 months ago, the meticulous renovation of this classic double-fronted c1900 Victorian residence by architect Ian Lovett has combined the original elegance with bespoke luxury and sensational warehouse style to create a stunning, sophisticated and spacious four-bedroom/three-ensuite Richmond Hill sanctuary literally metres to the Melbourne Cricket Ground.
Beyond the traditional block-fronted exterior, the painstaking renovation is immediately apparent with the detailed wainscotting and solid hardwood floors that flow through the central hall to two beautiful main bedrooms each with a designer ensuite and built in or walk in robes. There is a third main bedroom with walk in robe, stunning ensuite and balcony and a fourth bedroom with study alcove upstairs. Heated concrete floors, soaring raftered ceilings, meticulous high-density brickwork, using the reclaimed original bricks, fluted timber panels and engineered steel beams exude an evocative warehouse allure through the expansive living/dining room with an outdoor fireplace lightwell accessed through fully recessed glass sliders. The warm and inviting ambience is continued in gourmet kitchen where premium Bosch appliances, fluted timber and stone benches are highlighted. Floor to ceiling bi-fold doors allow the living space to flow seamlessly out to a gorgeous lush, landscaped north-facing courtyard oasis perfect for al fresco dining.
Situated in the heart of the highly coveted Richmond street, The Crofts, this fully renovated home provides an unbeatable Richmond Hill lifestyle walking distance to the MCG, Swan Street and Bridge Road restaurants and shops, West Richmond and Richmond railway stations, trams, Yarra Park, the sports precinct and the CBD. The house is equipped with video intercom, liner refrigerated cooling, hydronic heating, heated concrete floors, double glazing 7.5 star efficiency windows, separate laundry, water tank and ample roof storage.
