85 Richardson Street, Albert Park

Sublime contemporary style meets period grace within this utterly divine three-bedroom Victorian residence, nestled in one of the most coveted tree-lined streets near Albert Park Village, the beach, and the Victoria Avenue precinct. Behind its deceptively modest, picturesque single-front facade, the homes impressively proportioned, beautifully curated interiors unfold across two spectacular levels, marked by a sky-lit, corbel-arched hallway featuring soaring ceilings and wide oak floors. Two generous ground-floor bedrooms, with robes, ornate ceilings and open fireplaces, lead to a fully tiled central bathroom illuminated by a light-well courtyard. Upstairs, an exquisite main bedroom retreat reveals a rooftop terrace amidst the treetops, accompanied by a striking ensuite with a freestanding north-facing bath and a walk-in robe. The gourmet kitchen sets the tone for indoor-outdoor living and entertaining, appointed with stone benches, Miele appliances, and an integrated fridge/freezer, flowing seamlessly into an expansive living and dining area awash with northern light. A gas fireplace enhances the ambience, while full-width glass sliders lead to a private garden courtyard with rear access. Positioned for lifestyle rewards, including proximity to Albert Park College, MSAC, and local cafes, this sophisticated sanctuary also features a video intercom, double glazing, RC/air-conditioning, Euro-laundry, and lined roof storage.
