The perfect marriage of designer contemporary class and 1880s period character is on display here with this stunning 3 bedroom dual level residence in one of Melbourne’s most historic buildings. As part of iconic ‘The Grand’ complex’ sitting right on the cusp of the CBD, this renovated abode is one of the few select double storey properties within the building, and truly offers a seamless blend of the beautiful old and stylish new.
The Grand has a history dating back to the 1830s, where the site was once the residence of Melbourne icon John Batman, with the current building being former railway offices that were completed towards the end of the 19th century. Incredible original detail has been masterfully retained throughout the structure, from the memorable entry with majestic red carpet staircase, to the wide hallways and soaring ceilings which transport you to the apartment itself.
Striking timber floors dominate the entry and flow all the way into the spacious loft-style living zone which offers double-story 6m arched sash windows, allowing natural light to flood in and dedicated areas for lounging and dining. The kitchen is a model of Manhattan influenced style and is tucked away just off the main hub, and showcases sublime stone countertops, subway tiled splashback, 2nd splashback with exposed 120-year-old original brick, soft-closing drawers and cabinetry, black Franke sink, and premium Bosch appliances including an induction cooktop.
Bathed in more natural light, the downstairs bedroom adds convenience to the layout as does the sleek powder room, while there are 2 more bedrooms on the top floor which includes the enormous main bedroom. The upstairs level is also enhanced by a beautiful bathroom with double shower and a twin vanity. Other property features include a downstairs dedicated laundry, ducted heating and cooling, custom double-glazed windows for peace and quiet, ceiling speakers in living zone, LED lighting, remote controlled blinds, ethernet connections throughout, fibre optic internet, secure intercom, secure car space, and access to The Grand’s swimming pool with retractable glass roof, spa, sauna, gym, two courtyard areas with BBQ facilities, and building manager. The building is also pristinely maintained and offers amazing security.
This location is right on the city’s edge, and is your gateway to the wide array of renowned restaurants, bars, cafes, and shopping that the CBD provides. You’re also so close to Southbank Promenade and Crown Casino, Batman Park, South Wharf Promenade which comes alive on the weekend, South Melbourne Market, Marvel Stadium, free trams, and Southern Cross Station.
