Exclusively positioned, in one of East Melbourne’s most sought-after locations, this elegant Victorian terrace has been completely reimagined. With 335sqm (approx) of living, with sublime and elegant sophistication rarely seen in a circa 1867 heritage building.
Benefitting from off-street parking and an extremely rare rooftop entertainer’s conservatory with panoramic views, this incomparable four-storey home also offers multiple living and entertaining spaces and a compelling blend of timeless character and contemporary refinement.
Behind the house’s timeless period façade, an inviting hallway with soaring ceilings and a decorative arch welcomes. To the left, a light-filled formal living and dining room is an elegant retreat with decorative ceiling roses and a feature fireplace.
Anchoring the rear of the home is an informal living domain blessed with custom cabinetry, another fireplace and French doors that open to a balcony with a leafy outlook. The adjoining kitchen is appointed with granite benchtops, premium appliances including a Miele dishwasher and gas cooktop and generous storage – perfect for entertaining or daily family life.
A breathtaking floating staircase meanders up to the first floor where three bedrooms include a serene rear master with built-in robes, a stylish ensuite with bath and private balcony access. Another spacious bedroom and bathroom is located on the lower ground floor, along with a further flexible living space with sliding doors which open to a tranquil private courtyard.
Crowning this remarkable home is a show-stopping rooftop conservatory, custom-built by renowned craftsman Tony Haycox of Ashcroft Conservatories. Complete with a built-in kitchenette and rooftop deck, it’s a private oasis for entertaining or quiet evenings under the stars with sweeping views over nearby Powlett Reserve and East Melbourne’s skyline.
Other features of this impeccable residence include a dramatic internal water feature that spans the full height of the home, beautiful hardwood flooring, Euro laundry, secure off-street parking for two cars via the rear laneway plus two on-street council permits, wine cellar/storage room, hydronic heating, ducted heating and cooling and security entry.
