Steeped in rich maritime history and soaring across three expansive levels, this extraordinary 1840s converted warehouse offers a rare blend of historic character, modern architectural design, and ultimate coastal lifestyle.
Behind a discreet, understated secure facade that completely hides the massive historic volume within, the residence opens into a world of space and light. Originally built in 1845 and owned by the prominent Manning family for nearly a century, this iconic limestone structure has worn many storied hats-from shipping agency offices and confectionery workshops to a mid-century bag store. In 1993, renowned architect Patroni masterfully transformed the heritage building into a world-class architectural sanctuary.
Exposed Fremantle stone walls meet sleek contemporary finishes throughout, featuring dynamic, distinct living zones cleverly spread across all three levels to allow for effortless multi-generational living, formal entertaining, or peaceful retreat. With its flexible footprint, the layout could easily convert into two separate, self-contained warehouse townhouses or remain as one magnificent residence. Framing leafy vistas directly across the Esplanade and showcasing the magnificent romantic architecture of the West End, this sanctuary offers flexible City Centre Mixed-Use Zoning-delivering luxury urban living without compromise.
