At one with its distinguished position amongst St Kilda Hill's finest homes, this refined Victorian residence offers remote-controlled garaging for two while balancing the area's dynamic energy with a tranquil, garden-framed retreat. Defined by grand proportions and thoughtful design, it captures natural light, spatial generosity and adaptable living, delivering an exceptional setting for contemporary family life.
Elegant interiors tastefully complemented by countless modern luxuries, yet retaining the grandeur of the past such as ornate lacework, tessellated tiles and two beautifully landscaped private garden terraces. Traditional formal sitting and dining rooms with two fireplaces and exquisite period detailing form a captivating prelude to the sun-drenched casual family room to the rear, accentuated by towering neighbouring greenery and western light into the paved courtyard. Appointed with a premium French Rosieres Paul Bocuse range cooker, Miele dishwasher, Miele warming drawer and abundant storage, the kitchen is the perfect complement for entertaining. To the rear of the property is a twin-room underground cellar, an indulgence for the discerning wine collector, perfect for a gym or soundproof music studio.
Four bedrooms, two that open onto the iron-lace balcony and two bathrooms upstairs, this home offers many configurations for the way you live and work. The main suite evokes the serenity and space of its surroundings, benefitting from an ensuite, sky-lit walk-in robe and a large, adjoining home office, wellness retreat or nursery. Considered details include ducted heating, a powder room downstairs, european laundry, extensive storage, app-controlled garden irrigation and the rarity of wide laneway access to a secure 2 car garage.
