South Yarra VIC 3141

Expressions of interest closing Thursday 11th September at 4.00pm.Tucked away in the quiet charm of Myrtle Street, just footsteps from the famed French Quarter end of Toorak Road, this architecturally redesigned Edwardian residence is a true one-of-a-kind. Its position is unmatched, secluded and peaceful, yet wrapped in the beating heart of South Yarra, where leafy walks through the Botanic Gardens and Fawkner Park meet morning coffee rituals, strolls to Prahran Market, and effortless city access.Lovingly renovated in 2010 with vision and care, this two bedroom, two bathroom home with two flexible living zones is a masterclass in design that's both practical and poetic. The intention was clear from the beginning: create space, maximise flexibility, and embed low-maintenance luxury into every detail. The result? A home that feels like a European townhouse, complete with clever storage, bespoke joinery, and a timeless palette that balances warmth and minimalism.Inside, recycled Tallowwood floors sweep through the lower level, guiding you from the generous living room framed by high ceilings and a built-in media unit into a beautifully appointed kitchen and dining area. Italian tapware, a fireclay double sink, stone benchtops, Miele appliances, and a wine fridge are just a few of the curated elements that make this space sing.Upstairs, the light-filled master bedroom with bay window, balcony, and custom robes is a private haven that captures the morning sun while the sublime bathroom on this floor showcases a large soaker tub, designer tapware and Japanese tiling.A second upstairs living area with extensive joinery and a built-in desk opens through triple-stacker doors to a private deck, complete with bar and leafy outlooks. This space has been many things: a studio, an office, a lounge and could easily become a third bedroom if desired. The second double bedroom is situated on the ground floor with triple built-in robes and lovely morning light and is served by a bright main bathroom. Throughout the home, double-glazed windows provide thermal comfort and acoustic peace, with ducted heating, split systems, and double brick construction ensuring effortless climate control in every season. Details such as felt acoustic panels, timber shelving, extensive storage, and custom cabinetry are not just features they're part of a deeper design language that sets this home apart.The outdoor areas are just as thoughtful with two timber-decked courtyards, screened for privacy, a lockable storage shed with bike hooks, and built-in bins, plus a secure front gate and Crim-Safe entry for peace of mind.This is more than a house it's a sanctuary, a story, a lifestyle. A home where everything has been considered, and nothing is ordinary. From the very first day to the last, its owners felt lucky to live here and it's easy to see why.
