102 Carlton Street, Carlton, Vic 3053

Opposite the Carlton Gardens and tucked into a quiet street on the edge of the city, this gracious Victorian terrace pairs period charm with a practical, well-considered layout. With its classic façade, tall ceilings and generous proportions, it offers a sense of calm just moments from some of Melbourne’s most vibrant pockets.

Set over two levels, the floorplan is both traditional and adaptable. The ground floor opens with a wide hallway, leading to a spacious bedroom with built-in robes and an original marble fireplace, alongside a second bedroom or flexible living space. At the rear, a well-equipped kitchen and meals area connects to a private courtyard with pedestrian access to Barkly Street, while a bathroom with spa bath and laundry round out the lower level.

Upstairs, two more bedrooms sit alongside a second bathroom and an impressive full width living room, or fourth bedroom, with views to the city across leafy Carlton Gardens. Details like hydronic heating and ample storage add everyday comfort without fuss.

With the city, Lygon Street, Gertrude and Brunswick Streets all within easy reach—not to mention the University of Melbourne, RMIT, hospitals, schools and trams—this is inner-city living with a quieter rhythm.
