Albert Park VIC 3206

Owning a coveted position opposite St Vincent Gardens in the heart of Albert Park Village, this magnificent c1870 Victorian residence's irresistible grace and grandeur is matched by an inspired extension that provides the space and versatility for an exemplary family future. Superbly restored and extended beyond the Hawthorn Brick facade, extraordinary proportions reveal over two levels with resplendent formal and informal living spaces and a wealth of accommodation, complete with a self-contained garden studio and double garage with frontage to Bevan Street.

Soaring high ceilings and original Baltic Pine floors set the tone, where regal formal living and dining rooms showcase the splendour of the era. Marble fireplaces and brilliant northern light illuminate the space, enriched by the open-plan living and dining zone at the rear, where wall-to-wall frameless bi-fold glass connects seamlessly with the alfresco terrace. The kitchen, with natural stone benchtops and high-end appliances, including an AGA range stove, induction cooktop and integrated fridge/freezers, is accompanied by a butler's pantry and a BBQ light-well courtyard catering to the avid entertainer.

Ascend the solid timber staircase to the sumptuous balcony main with its northern city and garden outlook, supplemented by a modernised bathroom and second bedroom/nursery. Three additional light-filled bedrooms in a separate hallway, a ground-floor home office/6th bedroom, a family bathroom and a self-contained rear studio with garage access deliver extensive family flexibility. Enviably placed within moments of trams, the beach, MSAC, South Melbourne Market, and Melbourne's most prestigious schooling options, this impressive property boasts hydronic heating, reverse-cycle heating/cooling, a lower-level gym/cellar, and a large laundry with a powder room.
