32 Spensley Street, Clifton Hill, Vic 3068

Prepare to be awestruck by an expansive realm of industrial artistry inside this striking freestanding warehouse conversion on a prominent corner in the heart of the village. ‘Stromboli’ is a standout that having undergone a stunning transformation curated by its passionate architect-owner, defies convention combining its red brick industrial roots with bold contemporary innovation and complete reconstruction. This is not just a renovation, it’s a revolution fusing raw character with a sustainable focus and steampunk edge creating a series of dynamic spaces over 2 extensive levels and 280 sq. metres that’s as functional as it is fantastic. Huge light-capturing windows, exposed brickwork and a polished concrete floor with hydronic heating set the tone for a sprawling open-plan layout where custom brass-topped adjustable tables anchor a polished brass kitchen boasting top-line Miele appliances and a chill/boil Zip hydrotap. Make a statement by configuring at will this ground-floor domain including living and dining areas along with whatever takes your fancy as there’s a vast amount space to play with that incorporates roller door parking and a powder room. The journey continues upstairs beyond a feature Murano glass chandelier where solid Jarrah floors lead the way to a soaring raked-ceiling setting with double-glazing, ceiling fans and views to the city that features a large main bedroom (walk-in robe and a breathtaking ensuite with a freestanding terrazzo stone bath and a shower), 2 further bedrooms (BIRs), big Euro laundry and a beautiful bathroom. An alfresco oasis that’s absolute north-facing, a secluded rooftop terrace basking in sunlight offers space to entertain maintenance-free with wonderful views over Clifton Hill. There’s also high-end 6.64 kW solar power/battery system, split-system air-conditioning, double block-out blinds, designer lighting, copper-pipe shelving, video intercom, storerooms and 2 x 4000-litre water tanks. At ‘Stromboli,’ every corner, every fixture, every material disrupts the ordinary resulting in an amazing home heaving with life just metres to village amenities, cafes, train station, Darling Gardens, schools and inner-city shopping precincts.
