Expansive, light-filled and luxuriously updated for city-edge success, this substantial 3 bedroom townhouse stands privately and peacefully as one of Carlton’s best-kept secrets. Tucked away beyond the original red-brick walls of a historic precinct, this vast modern residence in exclusive ‘Station Mews’ presents an exceptionally rare fusion of size, style and convenience flooded by streams of natural northerly light. Behind high-walled entry and a lush courtyard garden, the interior proportions of this immaculate low-maintenance home are simply breathtaking with towering cathedral ceilings and soaring full-height glazing creating a light and airy ambience of sun-drenched seclusion enhanced by ducted heating and split-system air-conditioning. A massive open-plan living domain that’s brilliantly bright is warmed by a striking HeatnGlo gas fireplace while integrating a wall-mounted TV and a ceiling fan for absolute comfort. An ultra-large dining area at the rear connects effortlessly to the garden with its retractable awnings and sweeps to a showcase chef’s kitchen boasting a huge waterfall-edged natural stone island and premium Miele appliances including an integrated fridge/freezer, induction cooktop and wall ovens, along with clever storage solutions. Also at ground-level is a stylish powder room and a big laundry complete with an additional walk-in shower.
