East Melbourne VIC 3002

A formal sitting room sits proudly in its refinement at the front of the house overlooking the park; while the core of the home opens out to a vast dining room and adjoining living room set beneath a soaring vaulted skylight with the warmth of a Jetmaster fireplace and French doors seamlessly linking to the beautiful entertainer's garden with feature pond flooded in sun from the north and west.
The kitchen features the same pitched ceiling for a dramatic effect which is enhanced by the use of specially designed lighting. A wall of windows above the sink overlooks the terrace filling the room with light and forging a convenient link with the outdoor dining area.
A rumpus room leading out to the garden serves two double fitted bedrooms with garden aspects; while two further fitted bedrooms are located in the original part of the house including the tranquil northern main bedroom overlooking the park with a walk-in robe and sublime stone finished en suite. Two further bathrooms serve the needs of a family in style.
Despite its heritage, the home is very much in line with 21st century priorities with 1.5 kilowatts of solar power, hydronic heating, a double garage accessed via a rear laneway, alarm, excellent storage including a store room and vast attic storage. and a love of natural light harnessed through west-facing glass and abundant skylights.
The undeniable appeal of this period home is made utterly irresistible by the lifestyle it offers in the heart of Melbourne within minutes of Victoria Street's restaurant district, the CBD and its Arts precinct, Melbourne's sporting venues, Fitzroy Gardens and trams.
