39 Brougham Street

North Melbourne VIC 3051

Architecturally reinterpreted while retaining every ounce of its heritage charm, this tremendous terrace pairs city-fringe amenity with the leafy tranquillity so synonymous with its historic Hotham Hill locale.

With a commanding, elevated stance to one of North Melbourne's most revered avenues, wrought-iron lacework adorns a timeless facade, with an enlivened interior deftly balancing original and contemporary. Brightened by a clever light court, a central lounge and dining zone neighbour open family and kitchen areas, spilling through bifold doors into a tranquil yard perfect for entertaining among greenery. Doubling as an extra bedroom, a fitted ground-floor study complements a superb, first-floor office with built-in storage, while a quiet, retreat ensures welcomed living separation. Served by a marble-enhanced bathroom with separate, additional shower, a guest room with built-in robes accompanies a magnificent master with walk-in robe and scenic balcony, while other highlights to the home include gas-converted fireplaces, Baltic pine and factory-salvaged floorboards, hydronic heating, split-system cooling, a powder room, backyard shed, concealed laundry, and under-stair storeroom.

Among the most storied and significant of local residences, it's no more than steps to trams, trains, leisure facilities, and pristine Royal Park, with universities, hospitals, University High (zoned), lively Errol Street, the Queen Victoria Market, and city centre close by.
