4 Portland Place
South Yarra

Delightfully tucked-away and yet incredibly convenient to all of South Yarra's famous cosmopolitan action, this tastefully renovated and extended, two bedroom Victorian residence evokes a soothing air of al fresco tranquility. Distinguished by an enormous rear courtyard and rear parking for two vehicles, this fresh, light and airy home is the ultimate, centrally positioned hideaway in a street with no vehicular traffic.

Along a traditional arched hallway and with Baltic Pine under foot, the home flows past generous bedrooms appointed with built-in robes, to a contemporary open-plan rear, where, under soaring ceilings enhanced by a series of skylights, the tastefully under-stated and subway-tiled kitchen overlooks a generous dining / living area. Step outside to discover the charms of a courtyard that is large enough to simultaneously accommodate two vehicles whilst leaving plenty of room for outdoor dining or a cheeky glass of wine. Added highlights include a second courtyard, clever study nook, a liberal use of stylish plantation shutters, split system heating and air conditioning.

Cast in one of Melbourne's favourite lifestyle locales, you can walk to an endless selection of the city's finest cafes, restaurants and bars along Chapel St and Toorak Rd, as well as the gourmet foods of Prahran Market, boutique shopping, trams in all directions and city-bound trains that only take five minutes from South Yarra Railway Station.
