21 Latham Street, Northcote, Vic 3070

Showcasing a thorough transformation and exceptional extension, this sun-drenched home has become a spectacular, four bedroom, two bathroom showstopper encompassing multiple living areas. Architecturally designed and elegantly assured, inspired as the builder’s own home and completed to the highest standards, the double fronted beauty gracefully incorporates meticulous handcrafted detail and luxurious fixtures. Towering ceilings rise as high as 3.5 metres, complementing period style features including a corbelled archway, decorative cornices, ornamental fireplaces and detailed skirting boards. Tall arched doorways and curved walls add chic balance, harmonising with wide French Oak floorboards and wool carpet.  Luxurious spaces include a living room, retreat and gourmet kitchen/dining/family with butler’s pantry. Resplendent with Italian marble surfaces, a suite of 900mm Fisher & Paykel cooking appliances, including a pyrolytic oven and induction cooktop, integrated Bosch dishwasher and large integrated Siemens fridge/freezer, the kitchen is a chef’s fantasy. The big dining zone stars a Picasso-inspired focal point and a wealth of glass ushers natural sunlight inside. Evoking holiday vibes, a stunning outdoor entertaining area is poised beside a herb garden, and the near-endless list of further strengths includes two service courtyards. Four double bedrooms with built-in robes embody serene accommodation, with the main boasting a refined ensuite highlighting a tiled wall, seamlessly transitioning to the ceiling by curving up over the top of the shower. A fluted bath and frameless glass walk-in shower distinguish the stylish main bathroom, also appointed with three Gessi showerheads, and there’s an impressive powder room, plus a top-tier laundry complete with pet bathing station. Boasting a marble-topped desk and wireless charger, the open study simplifies homework and planning. Skylights, zoned heating/refrigerated cooling, double glazing, imported designer light fittings, recycled timber features, superb storage space, a security system and automatic garage, accessing a rear right of way, complete a picture of impeccable quality. Zoned to Northcote High, it’s brilliantly situated, only a stroll to trains, trams, schools, parks and famous High Street.
