In the magnificent period surrounds of blue chip St Kilda West, this three-bedroom two-bathroom single level home presents one of the area’s most remarkable opportunities. Set on a prominent 396m2 corner with three frontages, a prized north facing rear, separate studio/home office or retreat and double garage, an exceptional range of possibilities exist, each guaranteed to unlock one of Melbourne’s most privileged lifestyles. Move in and enjoy the beautifully spacious existing accommodation, perhaps establishing or running a home based business or professional rooms at the rear via a separate ROW entry. Or renovate, perhaps add a second story (STCA) to maximize the wonderful opportunities this rarefied position just footsteps from the beach, waterfront, parkland and Fitzroy Street presents. In the same hands for over forty years, the home’s timeless modern design has been progressively renovated and upgraded to even further enhance this light filled yet perfectly private sanctuary encircled by it’s series of lush courtyard gardens. With the commemorative water sculpture fountain of Mary and Loch Street just beyond, the high fenced entrance unfolds to the first of four serene feature courtyards. A central glassed foyer links two separate wings of accommodation each designed with expansive glazing to appreciate the tranquility of the courtyards beyond. Three inviting bedrooms occupy the south wing, two served by a central bathroom, the generous main bedroom featuring a WIR with extensive custom storage, palatial marble ensuite and access to its own private outdoor domain. Generous open plan living and entertaining areas feature an OFP, clever marble bar and mezzanine retreat with floor to ceiling glazing stepping out to a northern entertainer’s courtyard with auto reticulated sun awning. At the rear, a double garage with workshop and storage sits below a large first floor retreat with serene leafy outlook, ideal as studio or home office with separate entry via the rear bluestone laneway. Includes stainless steel servery kitchen with Gaggenau/Miele cooking appliances, high architectural ceilings, underfloor heating and split system cooling/heating.
