Classic character reinvented for today
This renovated Edwardian gem shines with personality. The ivy-framed archway and covered tessellate- tiled verandah create an alluring first impression before the front door opens to a wide hallway with soaring ceilings and Baltic Pine underfoot.
To the left, a generously sized bedroom shows off its marble fireplace with colourful tile inlay, ornate ceiling detail, leadlight windows and built-in robes. Further in, a second bedroom continues the scale and character with its own marble fireplace and decorative flourishes.
At the rear, the interior opens up. A vast living and dining room stretches out with floating cabinetry and bi-fold glass doors opening to a private alfresco courtyard. It’s an indoor-outdoor connection made for entertaining that spills late into summer nights and transforms weekends into leisurely affairs. Home chefs will love the kitchen with stone benches, breakfast bar and Miele appliances. Full-height cabinetry and a walk-in pantry provide ample storage, while a bespoke integrated workstation carves out a clever spot to work or study. The bathroom is sleekly appointed with a bath, a shower featuring rain and hand-held shower heads, and modern finishes, complemented by a separate toilet with hand basin. A concealed Euro laundry, ducted heating and a split-system air conditioner are further highlights.
The location is as magnetic as the home itself. Walk to Carlisle, Balaclava or Chapel Street for shopping, dining and cafes, jump on a tram, catch a train from Windsor or Balaclava Station, and spend weekends between Albert Park Lake, St Kilda Pier and the beach. With Acland and Fitzroy Streets adding even more colour, and schools like St Kilda Primary and St Michael’s Grammar nearby, this is a home that’s full of modern magic, wrapped in a vibrant and connected locale.
