16 Mary Street
St Kilda West

An exquisite example of its 1880's Boom Style beginnings, this balconied Victorian is a rare illustration of the area's early architectural heritage, showcasing grand period aesthetics matched by sublime interior design by revered Australian fashion icon Alannah Hill. Just a block from the beach, proudly placed amongst illustrious period residences, this home reveals a series of sophisticated living and dining domains highlighted by marble fireplaces and soaring ceilings, and a striking marble kitchen with oversized dining area. A full complement of high end Miele/smeg appliances and an integrated fridge/freezer accompany the kitchen. A dramatic staircase leads to three upstairs bedrooms including a privately zoned, provocative main with rich velvet curtains, balcony, open fireplace, dressing room and marble ensuite. Family bathroom, powder room, NW courtyard garden and rear laneway access. A sophisticated balance of glamour and style - a memorable home for those accustomed to the very best - just a block from St Kilda Beach and Catani Gardens, moments from the Fitzroy Street scene, MSAC and Albert Park Lake.
