Photo ID required upon Inspection A grand Victorian mansion originating in the 1880s, later transformed in the 1920s has now been completely reimagined into an exceptional home with unmatched provenance. This grand, graceful abode stands proudly as one of the inner-north’s most extraordinary residences. Beyond an unforgettable street stance, a remarkable interior domain exhibits a degree of detail and standard of quality akin to the luxury mansions placed south of the Yarra. Herringbone floors and soaring, ornate ceilings promise an instant impression, with a beautifully bright and infinitely inviting entrance hall winding through a rounded archway into a transcendent focal area. Attracting ribbons of all-day sun, expanses of custom-made glass conform to the shape of cathedral ceilings, with a divine living space (with wood fire) and broad dining zone (with bar) neighbouring a magnificent kitchen fit for large-scale hospitality. A lavish, waterfall island provides room for several, complemented by a lengthy, wraparound worktop, plentiful BLUM cabinetry, a top-of-the-range, fully integrated Sub Zero fridge/freezer, and upscale Miele appliance suite. Its white bricks, splashes of greenery, and profusion of sun reminiscent of the always-adored Palm Springs design style, a simply sensational, north-facing yard sees open-air sitting and lounge spaces adjoin a centrepiece pool/spa, while an entertainer’s pavilion with outdoor kitchen offers a shaded refuge for sun-drenched summer afternoons. Enjoying a downstairs wing all to itself, a sumptuous main bedroom is joined by a marble-encased fireplace, substantial dressing room, and multi-user office/library, while an expansive ensuite, accessing its own garden retreat, boasts a dual-basin vanity, soaker tub, and twin rain shower. With towering ceilings continuing upstairs, a quiet teenager’s escape accompanies a scenic southern balcony and three considerable bedrooms, collectively served by a luxe, dual-basin bathroom, ensuite to guest room, and abundant storage. The finest home to grace the Brunswick market for some time, highlights include a range of original details, swathes of natural and reconstituted stone, Brodware, Parisi, and Phoenix tapware, comprehensive heating/cooling, a lower storeroom, and double garage accessed via rear laneway. Positioned to revel in the buzz of central Brunswick, it’s seconds to bars, cafés, bakeries, and restaurants, with parks, trains, and trams nearby.
