130 Bridge Street
Port Melbourne

Beyond a classic solid brick Victorian façade in the heart of the Bay Street precinct, peaceful privacy and unexpected light shape this single-level home, reimagined for today. The renovation is exceptional, drawing on the character of its turn-of-the-century origins, with high 3.3m ceilings and the warmth of engineered Blackbutt floors, while introducing custom features that make everyday living feel purposeful and refined.

Inside, the traditional hallway connects two generous bedrooms, each with robes and one with an integrated desk, plus a chic bathroom, where soaring vaulted ceiling and Zellige style clay subway tiles feel calm and understated, matched with a discreet European laundry and ample storage. At the rear, the open-plan living and dining area welcomes brilliant light through original windows reworked to open easily to the courtyard, and custom baguette seating to maximise space. The kitchen finished in sleek stone and Smeg cooking appliances is both beautiful and functional, complemented by a Fisher & Paykel dishdrawer dishwasher and a cleverly repurposed fireplace now adapted for storage. Bluestone paving extends outdoors to a sun-filled private courtyard edged in lush ground cover, providing a relaxed backdrop for alfresco dining while offering the practicality of rear right-of-way pedestrian access.

Split system air conditioning, ceiling fans and a garden shed round out the amenities, with future potential to extend up (STCA) and a prized position, moments from Edwards Park and Bay Street’s cafes, restaurants and retail options, with light rail to the city and the beach within easy reach.
