1/16 Collins Street, Brighton, Vic 3186

Fronting a famously leafy streetscape in sun-filled style, this architecturally designed residence by James Rigby, in a boutique block of just 5, offers up to 3 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms in a unique single-level garden residence. It presents approx. 171.45 sqm of breathtaking internal space, two private walled gardens (approx. 109 sqm), and a lift-access basement with 2-car garaging plus a versatile multi-purpose room.

With walls of glass blurring the boundaries between the north-facing living zone, an all-season alfresco terrace and the sun-drenched garden, the home offers an entertaining life with room to lounge beside a warming gas-fire, space to dine with a garden-view and a place for all-season entertaining on a covered barbecue terrace. Featuring every Miele appliance (including espresso maker) for the state-of-the-art kitchen, there’s a big butler’s pantry to add to the ease, ...and added space too - with scope to tailor the basement room as gym or media lounge.

Offering the ideal escape to a quiet bedroom wing with plush wool-carpeted spaces including a sumptuous master-domain encompassing a private courtyard, the home is luxe by design with a third bedroom fitted to as business-at-home office, glossy fully-tiled  bathrooms (one a dual-vanity ensuite), a full-size laundry, and excellent storage including a bespoke walk-in robe for the master, a cloak closet and large linen-press. 

Styled with natural and composite stones, glossy travertine tiles and walls of full-height glazing, the home has a high-tech edge with CBUS home-automation, high-spec climate control, alarm and video-intercom plus a streetfront gate for direct access to the high-walled garden. Blue-chip addressed at a walk-to-all location, this streetfront residence is just around the corner from the Town Hall parklands with Brighton Primary, Firbank and Brighton Grammar within a walk, and Church St and Middle Brighton station within a few blocks.
