Stamp your style on 'The Leicester ArmsnIn a prominent position just round the corner from Brunswick Street, 'The Leicester Arms' is one of Fitzroy's iconic Victorian hotels, renovated a few years ago to become the creative hub of Nobody Jeans. 'Nobody's Home' is moving to larger premises, setting the scene for the next phase in the history of this atmospheric building. Here are exciting possibilities to convert some of the current office spaces to residential use, enabling the property to become an exclusive inner city residence with work-from-home potential, in this prime Mixed Use zoning.
Impressively set on the street corner, with tall pediment and intricate triple-arched windows to the lower level, the 'Arms' has two front entrances, one to a sunny reception room adjoining a very spacious studio/office, the other to a hall opening to a study/bedroom. A well-fitted commercial style kitchen and dining area overlooks a vast north-facing display space, designed also for use as a living and dining zone with a wall of glass to a generous north-facing courtyard and car parking from the laneway to the side. To one side of the kitchen is a large laundry/storeroom and two toilet suites, one with shower.
Stairs from the hallway ascend past a north-facing balcony to the airy upper level, where there are four large bedrooms, one of which could readily be converted to a luxury bathroom.
