THE DEAL
Heritage at the front. Architecture at the back. Set on over 700sqma significant inner-north landholdingthis picturesque Victorian is unapologetic in scale and execution; a build that's near-impossible to replicate. Behind the block-fronted façade, volume and light take over: a double-height mezzanine void that stops you, long sightlines across the home and out to the garden, and an upper-level home library that overlooks everything.
The main domain is theatre with restraintfull-height custom oak joinery, a clean gas fire and steel-framed sliding doors that erase the threshold to the garden. The kitchen is made to work and wow; charcoal cabinetry, stone island, V-ZUG induction and steam, a concealed butler's pantry and zip tap. Twelve dine under sculptural pendants with ease, while a steel-framed French doors defines a quieter second lounge without loosing light or connection. Accommodation lands exactly where it should: three ground-floor bedrooms with robes, original fireplaces and garden aspects, a light-filled sitting room and a main bathroom centred on a freestanding bath. Above, a second living zone with gas fire introduces the parents' level a gallery-like, primary suite with full-width robes, an ensuite of architectural calibre twin walk-in showers, dual basins and a private home office, all framed by that jaw-dropping void and library.
Outside, an alfresco outdoor kitchen and built-in bench dining step to a broad, level lawn, a DreamCourts half-court and a gym/flexible studio or guest suite engaging the rear elevationplus two secure off-street parks and room for a pool (STCA). Moments to Kensington Village and cafés, public transport, and an easy run into the CBD.
SEALS THE DEAL
A one of one. Heritage weight, modern volume, and execution at a level rarely seen. A new inner-north benchmark, built to stand the test of time.
