Fitzroy VIC 3065

Behind a classic façade near Brunswick Street, this stunning home is anything but traditional unfolding into a voluminous 2-level domain with a city-view parents’ retreat. An inspired transformation that maximizes every inch of space with intelligent design and irresistible style, this captivating 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom and study Victorian is a light-filled sanctuary that’s far bigger and better than expected. Just footsteps from the cultural energy of Brunswick Street and the leafy calm of the Edinburgh Gardens, instantly relax inside this extra-spacious terrace launched by 2 impressive bedrooms with open fireplaces where the stylish first is absolutely north-facing and the second with built-in robes opens onto a brilliant light court. A smart central bathroom seamlessly integrated with a European laundry pairs contemporary finishes with clever storage, while stepping beyond the hallway the space expands dramatically to a vast open-plan beneath an architectural ceiling punctuated by skylights and a stainless-steel fan. Here, a gourmet kitchen with premium Fisher & Paykel stainless-steel appliances (dual-dishwasher), soft-close cabinetry and stone benchtops flows into clearly defined dining and living zones with double-glazed French doors revealing a newly-decked courtyard garden for private alfresco entertaining and laneway access. The entire first-floor is a private parents’ retreat where a high-raked ceiling frames a versatile study/lounge that captures breathtaking city skyline views, leading to the main north-facing bedroom and its excellent ensuite. Also offers hydronic heating, ceiling fans, security alarm, polished hardwood and tiled flooring, double-glazed doors and heated towel rails. An oasis that defies expectation at every turn, this brilliantly conceived residence merges period character with bold contemporary expansion all just moments from Fitzroy’s best cafes, restaurants and wine bars, shopping, trams, Eastern freeway, Fitzroy Pool and parkland.
