Overview

This distinguished double-storey Italianate residence dating back to circa 1875 offers a remarkable blend of classic Victorian architecture enhanced by thoughtful modern renovations. The home preserves its original grandeur with features like elegant stained glass, intricate cornices, marble fireplaces, and distinctive Baltic pine flooring, all illuminated by abundant natural light and enhanced by soaring ceilings that augment the sense of space.

The residence provides versatile accommodation including five well-sized bedrooms alongside a dedicated study with French doors that connect directly to the courtyard, ideal for flexible living arrangements, accommodating family life or remote working needs. Upstairs, one bedroom boasts an exclusive terrace with sweeping city vistas, adding an exceptional private retreat.

Social gatherings and everyday living are well catered for with a spacious formal lounge providing a serene escape and a generous family room that opens seamlessly to a mature rear courtyard—perfect for alfresco entertaining or quiet outdoor enjoyment.

Established low-maintenance gardens surround the property at front and rear, enhancing its curb appeal while requiring minimal upkeep. Comfort is assured year-round thanks to comprehensive hydronic heating throughout both levels augmented by reverse cycle cooling in the family area. Additionally, off-street parking for up to four cars addresses an uncommon convenience within a proximity so close to Melbourne's city centre.

Properties of this calibre featuring architectural distinction married with contemporary comforts and generous proportions are rare—further complemented by a prime location within easy reach of public transport and prestigious schools in one of Melbourne’s coveted suburbs.
