Architecturally remastered by Stonnington Group, this home’s majesty will captivate with its harmonious uncompromised fit-out, uncompromised indoor and outdoor living and entertaining spaces, and blue-chip location, just steps to Church Street.

Gracing a 867* square metre North Oriented corner block, ‘Erina’s’,circa-1880 grand Victorian-villa façade is celebrated with tessellated-tile verandahs overhung with iron lacework. The refined, elevated style of the majestically proportioned interiors is displayed in the gallery-like central hallway, where polished venetian plaster walls and European Oak flooring introduce a curated palette of materials, textures and colours that harmoniously capture your attention and senses. Overhead, a Giona Sarfeatti-inspired astep pendant chandelier and Artisanal designer sconces provide breathtaking illumination, while intelligent sensors and strategically placed LED strips add subtlety and nuance to the highly considered lighting plan. Exquisitely crafted and beautifully functional, American oak and walnut joinery both conceals and reveals features of the home’s uncompromised fit-out designed for impressively effortless living and entertaining. Showcasing the home’s exceptional culinary capabilities, a bespoke, oversized Taj Mahal quartzite island forms the visual and social centrepiece, while incorporating a custom timber diner. A professionally designed kitchen is equipped with a full suite of Wolf Sub-Zero commercial-grade appliances, and complemented with a butler’s kitchen with office space, and flow through to refined laundry, with external access to a herb garden which reinforces the theme of intuitive planning and enhanced utility. The home extends naturally to a skylit, undercover alfresco pavilion complete with Wolf-Sub-Zero outdoor kitchen and fireplace—designed for year-round enjoyment. Beyond the gardens, the Franklin Group's design unfolds as a composed extension of the architecture, balancing structure with softness through water features, sculptural planters, elevated lawns, and lush private borders. The result is serene, established and timeless.

Accommodation is resolved with the same clarity and care. The primary suite is a private retreat, featuring a bespoke walk-through robe and a hotel-level ensuite finished in Taj Mahal quartzite and Corian, with spa bath, double shower and Toto WC. Additional bedroom suites are generously proportioned, each with its own ensuite and refined finishes, ensuring privacy and comfort throughout.

A discreetly integrated first-floor apartment offers exceptional flexibility. Comprising a separate bedroom, bathroom and living area, with a kitchenette concealed behind full-height joinery, it is ideal for guests, extended family or executive accommodation—independent yet architecturally cohesive.

Comprehensively appointed, the home includes a luxurious powder room, a gas-log fireplace, zoned hydronic heating, central cooling, underfloor-heated bathrooms, a secure video intercom, a communications hub, and pure wool carpeting. Internal access connects to a double garage with automated entry to Male Street, complemented by two additional secure off-street parking spaces. Set just four doors from Church Street, and moments from Middle Brighton Station, the bay, elite schools, parkland, Bay Street and golf courses, the location is as compelling as the home itself.

Defined not by trends but by timeless decisions, this is a residence where heritage and contemporary architecture are resolved with warmth, restraint and confidence—a home that rewards attention, invites living, and endures.
