Distinguished by its unique and captivating terraced facade, this c1889 Victorian Italianate residence introduces an entirely new chapter for modern-day living, preserving its magnificent heritage while opening into beautifully resolved contemporary spaces across two expansive levels.

Hallmarks of the era remain proudly intact, from the tuck-pointed brickwork and tessellated tiled verandah to the soaring ceilings, deep decorative cornices and marble fireplaces that characterise the formal living and dining rooms. A restored cedar dividing door on its original pulley system allows the formal living and dining rooms to function independently or together, before the floor plan progresses through a striking clerestory-lit transition that reveals an expansive open living and dining domain.

Bi-fold doors then extend the entire living area onto a private decked courtyard with rear laneway access, creating a natural extension for entertaining beneath a motorised awning. Stainless steel benches, Bosch appliances including a combination oven, warming drawer, and integrated dishwasher, an Asko induction cooktop with a gas wok burner, and a wine fridge within the kitchen continue the entertainer’s appeal, designed for effortless hosting. Three bedrooms sit on the upper floor, with the rear bedroom featuring built-in robes, an integrated desk, and an adjoining bathroom, followed by a sunlit second bedroom and a north-facing main suite that opens onto the iron-lace balcony and includes a marble fireplace, built-in robes, and a skylit designer ensuite with a freestanding bath.

Appointed with hydronic heating, split-system air conditioning, a storage-rich laundry with powder room, instant gas hot water, a working OFP, ample storage throughout and a fully lined attic of approximately 22 sqm of floorspace, this exceptional residence occupies one of Middle Park's most tightly held tree-lined streets, moments from Armstrong Street Village, the beach and lake, light rail, popular cafés, Middle Park Primary School and Albert Park College.
