7 Merton Street
South Melbourne

On the edge of St Vincent Gardens and Albert Park Village, this beautifully renovated period residence captures the essence of parkside living while offering exceptional privacy and seclusion. Two spacious bedrooms, with expansive city views from a private rooftop balcony and a third bedroom/living room, create an enticing opportunity, with ROW access and a dress-circle position within a coveted lifestyle precinct, moments from South Melbourne Market, boutique wine bars, and city-bound transport.

Past a landscaped garden setting, the interiors open to an immediate sense of light and space, with oak-engineered floors and timber-lined, white-washed ceilings flowing throughout. French doors from the living area and dining room lead to garden spaces, with an inviting layout that extends into a well-appointed kitchen with stylish stone benchtops and a wealth of storage. A sun-drenched rear courtyard is private and welcoming for al-fresco dining, with lush greenery draped to one side and the ease of ROW access via a wide, secure roller door.

Upstairs, a serene main bedroom with balcony overlooks tree-lined outlooks, with built-in robes and a modern en-suite, followed by a second robed bedroom, a central bathroom and a study/landing with a European laundry. Further up, a sky-lit living room is adaptable for any need, unfolding to panoramic skyline views from its broad balcony and built-in bar, great as a secondary living area, home office or third bedroom option. Perfectly positioned within a short walk of Albert Park’s cafes, boutiques and restaurants, with the beach, MSAC, the lake and trams nearby, it offers a low-key, low-maintenance lifestyle, complete with a gas fireplace, roof storage and a substantial walk-down cellar.
