Unassuming by the charming, period façade, the interior of this property provides modern refinements and premium fixtures and fittings in abundance. With thought for liveability, high performance design, and energy efficiency underpinning every update to this classic 1870's Victorian worker's cottage, the result is an impressive property that showcases innovation at every turn, providing an aspirational backdrop to the ultimate urban lifestyle.
Upon entering, be greeted by a generous living area with open fireplace, the size of which is enhanced and illuminated by the atrium above, before leading off to the first of three bedrooms. Equipped with built-in robes and a custom wall-bed unit (aka Murphy bed) with built-in desk, the space embodies flexible living, able to switch effortlessly between home office and guestroom.
The remaining 2 bedrooms, zoned upstairs for privacy, are each equipped with built-in robes, split systems for heating/cooling, and Energy Recovery Ventilators which maintain relative humidity levels by supplying fresh, outside air in an energy efficient manner, helping promote a good night's sleep. The master offers an atrium retreat; a conservatory-type space adjoining the bedroom that supplies an abundance of natural light and provides a sanctuary catered to rest and relaxation. Also situated upstairs is the modern, central bathroom which features double showerhead, Phoenix tapware, and a Velux double-glazed electric skylight.
Moving into the back end of the home, the gourmet kitchen is defined by the clean lines and minimalist design of the white cabinetry, and the Dekton high-tech stone that coats the benchtops and backsplash. Equipped with Miele appliances, the double oven setup consists of a pyrolytic wall oven and 3-in-1 speed oven (including microwave), induction cooktop, and integrated XL capacity dishwasher, while the Italian-designed Sirius rangehood boasts maximum extraction power for minimum decibels. This area also houses the built-in dining bench with under-seat storage, and looks out on to the paved courtyard, complete with ROW access.
Additional highlights include double glazing with low emissivity, argon-filled glass throughout, and cordless, motorised, thermal double-celled, honeycomb blackout blinds on all windows.
Flanked by Brunswick Street retail and entertainment precinct, plus the convenience of transport (tram routes 11/86/96), and the tranquil Carlton Gardens, the cosmopolitan lifestyle on offer leaves nothing to be desired.
