Residence 15 / 97 Cruikshank Street
Port Melbourne

Enter via McCormack Street - Discreetly positioned within an enviable and tranquil inner-urban setting, this fully transformed designer residence with secure, undercover parking for one, occupies a peaceful rear position within one of the area’s most admired park-side complexes. Complete with private street access, a private entertainer’s courtyard and the feeling of an independent dwelling, it beautifully juxtaposes its ultra-connected locale, within easy walking distance of the beach, the CBD, Albert Park Village, and South Melbourne Market.

Interiors have been finished to an elite quality, with Tasmanian oak floors flowing through the open-plan living and dining domain, softened by full-height sheers and effortless connections to the outdoor spaces. The striking natural-stone kitchen forms the centrepiece, appointed with premium oak-veneer cabinetry, an Asko appliance suite and a streamlined flow to the butler’s pantry/laundry and powder room beyond. Sunlit al-fresco areas expand the footprint, offering leafy surrounds for extended entertaining or quiet relaxation, with a secure high-fenced setting designed for year-round use.

Upstairs, two substantial bedrooms deliver impressive scale, including a main suite with mirrored robes and leafy outlooks across a mature maple that filters the morning light. The central bathroom is finished to an exacting standard, with full-height tiling, a natural stone vanity, recessed storage with power and a soaring skylight above. A second bedroom enjoys northern light, custom-fitted robes and exceptional proportions.

With unwavering focus on quality and features such as split-system heating/cooling units in every room, a basement car park, a lock-up storage room, video intercom, garden irrigation, and zoning for Albert Park College, this remarkable home is an enticing inner-city base, surrounded by parks and only moments from Bay Street’s dining and transport links.
