1 Myrtle Street, Clifton Hill, Vic 3068

Simply sublime, this masterfully extended Edwardian is a freestanding four bedroom beauty melding period elegance with irresistible contemporary spaces and the finest inclusions. Reaping the rewards of an architect-designed transformation, the meticulously crafted home sits in an esteemed locale, surrounded by period abodes. Graced with leadlight, herringbone oak floors, lofty ceilings and open fireplaces, front rooms flow towards a central courtyard deck beside a gorgeous Elba Blue marble-appointed kitchen. Packed with a stunning array of Smeg appliances, including steam and convection ovens, a wide rangehood, gas and induction cooktops and semi-integrated dishwasher, the kitchen is further distinguished by excellent storage including a butler’s pantry. Polished concrete flooring with hydronic heating flows on to living and dining spaces exuding a modern industrial flavour, enhanced by steel framed windows and doors, an exposed brick wall and further concrete elements. A green rear garden is linked by automatic roller door to Clifton Avenue at the rear, providing an off-street parking option. Stylish bedrooms are divided between the two storeys, as are bathrooms including a chic ensuite and a family bathroom, which hosts a deep freestanding bath, rainfall shower, ultrawide vanity and concealed laundry. A built-in bar with wine fridge, additional hydronic heating, cooling, security cameras, intercom and excellent storage, including an attic, ensure you’ll want for nothing. Only a stroll to cafes, trains, Capital City Trail and parkland, and short commute to the city’s heart, this is one extraordinary family base.
