Seamlessly reimagined, this rare example of Circa 1860 Gothic Revival architecture melds stunningly with elegant contemporary architecture, creating a timeless beauty. Fully renovated throughout, whilst still retaining its heritage features. Nestled within your own retreat setting, this home reflects the magic of everyday life.

Stepping into this beautiful home, you immediately experience the monastic calm of the hallway gallery space. The alchemy of soft oak flooring, handmade German pendant lighting, diffused white washed walls, honour both the art and artists. A creative and inspiring welcome into this special place. To your left, a charming formal sitting room with marble fireplace and bespoke library wall, exudes a discerning refinement. A place to cosy up with a book, watch a movie or the latest sport, via a retracting projector screen.

As you venture further along the hallway an expansive open plan living and dining space is revealed, one that breathes life into any occasion, whether big or small. This space features a cosy wood burner fireplace that is perfect for those cold winter nights. The large, double-glazed door seamlessly connects the inside living space with the Amanda Oliver designed incredible garden oasis. Tuscan pencil pine borders, apple, pear and plum trees comfortably co-exist alongside more formal plantings. A kitchen garden provides organic vegetables and herbs all year round. Pick some lettuce, fire up the BBQ or pizza oven and you have the makings of a delicious alfresco dining experience. On the subject of food, the Danish inspired kitchen with 6 burner Ilve cooktop, natural stone bench tops, soft ash cabinetry and well-appointed butler’s pantry, makes for cooking pleasure. The meandering grape vine and verdant garden, visible from your kitchen window, creates a place of calm and invites culinary creativity. Of-course to accompany great food, comes great wine and champagne from your own carefully curated collection. Hidden right under your feet you will discover a 700-bottle cellar, accessible via a discreet yet magical folding trap door - sheer perfection!

This is truly a once in a lifetime home, positioned on a generous 769sqm land holding, boasting 5 bedrooms each with their own unique charm, whether it be city views, fireplace, or garden vista. The master located at ground level features a fireplace, dressing area, extensive robe space and ensuite. Weekend coffee and papers whilst sprawled in bed, feels that little more decadent with French doors opening onto the garden.

If this wasn’t perfect enough, one of the most unique features of this incredible home must be the fully self-contained Guest House, located in the northeast corner of the property. A home away from home for family and friends, nanny accommodation, a teen retreat or short stay rental. The options are endless. The Guest House sits perched above secure lock up garaging and carport, accommodating 4 cars off the street. A true rarity in Melbourne inner city.

Just a few other features of this perfect home, 3 bathrooms and powder room, hydronic heating throughout, AC in all upper-level bedrooms, a 10,000-litre underground rain tank, automated garden watering system and extensive garage storage.

This truly iconic house, coveted by many, can now become your home.
