Magnificently positioned within breath-taking landscaped gardens, this grand semi-detached heritage residence displays a spectacular blend of exquisite original elegance and inspired style, with enviable scope for the future.
Enjoying a privileged location near the beach, St Vincent Gardens and South Melbourne Market, its inviting dimensions are ideal for enjoying now or undertake a renovation with approved plans and permits to reimagine the layout to make the most of the private alfresco aspect.
Beyond an established European-inspired garden, the inviting hall with gorgeous ornate ceilings introduces two formal reception rooms and a well-appointed galley kitchen, interconnecting for both lavish entertaining and relaxed enjoyment. The gracious lounge and elegant dining rooms feature open fireplaces, with bi-fold shutters and evocative Wainscoting in the lounge reflecting the glamourous bygone era.
Mirrored walls along the hallway add to the sense of scale, highlighting the chandeliers and warmth of timber floors underfoot. A rear, paved alfresco terrace oversees the expertly curated Japanese garden, creating a place of respite amongst dwarf beech and seasonal maple trees.
The sumptuous main bedroom with an en-suite and extensive walk-thru robe, plus a second robed bedroom with a pot-belly wood heater and lovely treetop outlooks, are peacefully positioned upstairs. Exclusively situated close to city-bound trams, Village shopping and St Vincent Gardens, this stunning residence is comprehensively appointed with hydronic heating, sealed attic storage with a pull-down ladder, garden irrigation, understairs storage, bathroom with Euro laundry and right of way pedestrian access via the private easement.
