This magnificent c.1884 Victorian residence's unblemished expression of era-character, expansive proportions and lush, verdant garden setting creates the ultimate domain that is equally suited to lavish entertaining or relaxed everyday living. Providing peerless four/five bedroom, three-bathroom family spaces, the imposing entrance is distinguished by 12-foot ceilings and introduces a study, elegant formal sitting room and refined dining room. The beautiful light-filled rear extension exemplifies the signature flair of renowned architect Peter Elliot and comprises a family room with curved conversation sofa, casual meals, relaxing reading area, impressively appointed granite kitchen with bay window and walk-in pantry. Outside, the botanic beauty comprises an ornamental grape entwined pergola-covered patio, manicured hedges and superb brick paths and paving. The grand home is further enhanced with hydronic heating, reverse-cycle air conditioners, return decked verandah enveloping the master bedroom, ornate fireplaces, ceiling roses, under-stair storage and two-car garage (via good rear access). This splendid property is located close to Alma and Albert Parks, city transport, fine schools and Chapel and Fitzroy Streets.
