Cutting Edge Design, Impressive History

An extraordinary feat of architectural brilliance with an award-winning design and prominent position in the heart of South Melbourne, this cutting-edge residence delivers a peerless convergence of heritage beauty and contemporary allure that is truly one-of-a-kind. With automatic gates to a car-lift for two and the benefit of additional square meterage within the neighbouring laneway, it’s been crafted to encompass every need whilst placing you on the doorstep of South Melbourne Market, Albert Park Village, the CBD and the light rail.

Magnificent light creates an undeniable sense of connectivity within a striking atrium glass entrance, introducing open-plan family and dining spaces that afford an entertainer’s layout with a Miele-equipped, stone kitchen at heart. Sliding glass doors open to the private outdoors with lush, low-maintenance greenery creating a seasonal spectacle and sense of seclusion for al fresco dining.

Steeped in the rich heritage of the original Singapore Cottage from the Gold Rush era, the formal living and home office/ library embrace a sense of history and sophistication. With timber-lined ceilings reaching impressive heights, walls faithfully restored, and recreated wallpaper echoing the original design, this space exudes authenticity, offering a seamless balance between the past and the future, juxtaposed with the sleek, contemporary extension.

Upstairs, the main bedroom with city views, built-in robes and a lavish ensuite are matched with two further bedrooms with robes and a central bathroom. A ground-floor guest suite adds versatility to the floor plan, with an ensuite framing a tranquil garden with a maple tree, and plenty of storage. Located for inner-urban excellence, yet tucked away within a quiet street, this exceptional JAM Architects-designed home features ducted heating and cooling, a designer powder room, heated zoned bluestone flooring downstairs, alarm and CCTV, intercom access, and a European laundry.
