West Melbourne VIC 3003

Weaving class into character and charm into comfort, this timeless terrace brings elegance and eminence into the modern day, met by a position and lifestyle that's one of Melbourne's most adored.With its exquisite arch, marble and timber fireplaces, cornices, and rosettes among the array of details keeping heritage alive and thriving, a tessellated-tile entrance hall makes an impression to remember. Formal living and dining areas are ideal complements to an indoor-outdoor entertainer's suite in its own rear domain, with a stone-top kitchen and open meals area spilling out to a sun-splashed courtyard great for a Sunday barbecue or evening drink before a night on the town.Capitalising on their elevation to stage sweeping views across leafy surrounds, four substantial bedrooms compose second-storey accommodation that's unmistakably first-class, served by a smart central bathroom, master ensuite, ample storage, and the original veranda, brilliant for a morning espresso taking in sunrise colours. Both comfortable from the outset and rich with scope for future renewal, other highlights include split-system heating/cooling, a downstairs powder room, full-size laundry, rear parking for at least one car, and zoning for acclaimed University High School.Literally seconds to iconic Errol Street cuisine, shopping, entertainment, and nightlife, it's never more than a short walk to Flagstaff Gardens, Queen Victoria Market, North Melbourne Station, and Parkville's hospital/university precinct, along with trams reaching the heart of the CBD in next to no time. A celebration of the grace, charisma, and craftsmanship lost to yesteryear, every bit as commanding as the day it was built while primed and poised for centuries to come.
