1 Bridge Street, Brighton, Vic 3186

Enviably placed west of the Nepean Highway, this reimagined Edwardian showcases the class, charm, and that sees its era so adored, embracing the leafy eminence synonymous with Melbourne’s most exclusive bay suburb.

At the intersection of two tightly held cul-de-sacs, canopies of thriving flora frame facades rich with period charisma, revealing a smart and serene interior perfect for downsizers, professionals, and young families alike. Two substantial bedrooms each enjoy evergreen outlooks, distinguished from hospitality spaces by a wide, winding entrance hall. Northern sun enlivens broad living and dining zones, with social occasions comfortably catered for by an open, timber-top kitchen. Benefiting from direct access via Cross Street, a delightfully private backyard features an eclectic array of plant life; a sublime backdrop for coffees under morning sun, evening drinks surrounded by friends, and lazy Sundays with book in-hand. With scope to utilise an existing crossover for secure off-street parking, highlights of the home include a combined bathroom/laundry, comprehensive heating/cooling, fireplaces, Baltic pine floors, ceiling fans, solar energy, and zoning for esteemed Elsternwick Primary/Elwood College.

Central to the leading private schools scattered across Brighton, Elsternwick, and Caulfield, and St Kilda East, it’s no more than footsteps to lively Glen Huntly Road, Ormond Road, and Martin Street, Yalukit Willam Nature Reserve, the meandering Elster Canal Path, and sporting fields of Elsternwick Park, while moments to city trains, the scenic Bay Trail, and picturesque Elwood and North Brighton foreshores.
