Don’t miss this unique opportunity to own one of St Kilda East’s most exceptional and distinguished properties, offering endless potential, including the option for redevelopment (STCA). Set on a sprawling 1300 sqm (approx.) corner double block, this remarkable 1920s home effortlessly combines timeless period elegance with contemporary appeal, all set within stunning gardens that are sure to leave you in awe. With 6 bedrooms, a study, and 3 bathrooms, this extraordinary residence presents a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to experience both beauty and character in one unforgettable package.

Having been offered only twice in the past 80 years, this home is truly one of a kind and absolute treasure. It retains much of its original charm, from the striking brick façade to the soaring ceilings throughout. At the same time, the modern updates ensure that it’s a home ready to be enjoyed from the moment you move in. A spacious, open entry leads to two exceptional living areas: the grand formal lounge and dining room featuring beautiful bay windows and a gas log fireplace, and the relaxed, sun-filled family and meals area, also enhanced by stunning bay windows.


The elegant stone kitchen shares a space with the family and meals zone and is fully-equipped with an abundance of storage and premium Smeg and Miele appliances. A fully-fitted study/office with built-in desk and storage, plus a bedroom with built-in robe, adds to the flexible nature of the ground floor. Upstairs, you have 5 bedrooms in total which includes the expansive master bedroom which has its own walk-in robe and marble ensuite. An upstairs retreat, family bathroom, and balcony with wonderful views of the gardens below is the cream on top.

And speaking of the gardens, they truly are one of the home’s genuine highlights. You’ll love spending time on the brick courtyard in summer as you relish the verdant surrounds with friends and family. Other home extras include a downstairs bathroom, large external laundry, heating and cooling throughout, plenty of storage, under stairs study nook, a wealth of external workshop and storage space including a shed, outdoor toilet, extra-large double garage, and additional off-street parking for 2 cars via an electric security gate (access via Meadows Street). While families will love living in this home, the large land does open up the prospect of redevelopment (STCA).

Embrace this dream location so close to Greenmeadows Gardens with playground, leading schools (both private and public), Carlisle Street shops, Ripponlea Village, buses, trams, and Balaclava Station.

NOTE: No heritage overlay and in a GRZ zoning.
