Secluded behind lush, landscaped gardens by Will Gibson Gardens, this beautifully renovated, freestanding Victorian residence offers an exceptional family domain where period elegance transforms into generous contemporary proportions in the heart of South Yarra.
Beyond the secure garden forecourt and double-fronted faade, soaring ceilings and richly toned restored Jarrah floors flow through a graceful arched hallway, passing a home office and formal living room, with ornate OFP and period beauty, before the interior opens dramatically to the expansive living and dining domain at the rear. Bathed in natural light, each zone connects seamlessly while maintaining generous proportions for both indoor-outdoor entertaining and relaxed family living, with double-glazed French doors extending the interior to the lush private garden. A serene counterpoint to the inner-urban setting, the garden provides ample space for play and alfresco dining, while the brand-new kitchen takes its cue from the playful hue of the front door, pairing striking stone surfaces with a handmade ceramic-tiled splashback, a Belling dual oven, an integrated Bosch dishwasher, and a wealth of custom storage.

A bathroom on each level ensures modern-day ease, including a bathroom/laundry with direct garden access.
