Once in a Generation Opportunity

An exceptional, once-in-a-generation offering on 486sqm (approx) positioned on a prized corner just steps from the Albert Park Village. This award-winning double-fronted, freestanding, single-level Victorian residence opens to beautifully established north orientated gardens and enjoys a rare third frontage to Little Merton Street with a secure double garage. Its striking iron-laced checkerboard marble verandah and heritage façade hint at its exquisite beauty, with Paul Bangay designed gardens showcasing ornate water features and espaliered apple trees that frame the front fence. The residence unfolds through a grape-vine leadlight entry, to high 3.5-metre ceilings and brilliant natural light that shifts through each room, creating a calm yet dynamic architectural flow.

An elegant sitting room at the front features ornate ceilings and a marble fireplace, while wide oak floors extend towards expansive rear living and dining areas, all immersed in the private, northern garden outlook. Expanses of glass bring the outdoors close, where ornamental grape vines, wisteria, and bluestone water features shape a tranquil, seasonally changing backdrop for entertaining. Natural marble surfaces and a mirrored splashback reflect the view and elegance of the designer kitchen, perfectly equipped with a butler’s pantry, two integrated dishwasher drawers, and premium Miele appliances, including two ovens.

Offering four bedrooms with a versatile fifth bedroom and three bathrooms, the home provides outstanding versatility with the benefit of accommodating two expansive living zones. The main suite enjoys a stunning garden aspect, a fitted walk-in robe, and a sublime marble-detailed en-suite, while an independent, self-contained studio with lounge, ensuite, kitchenette and study enjoys city glimpses, perfect for a home office or guest retreat.

Additional appointments include hydronic heating, ducted heating/cooling, in-floor heating, irrigation, a large laundry with powder room, secure intercom entry and abundant storage. This tightly held Albert Park setting places the beach, MSAC, the lake and leading Melbourne schools within easy reach, alongside city-bound trams and the vibrant village atmosphere, which is just moments from the front door.
