6/201 Abbotsford Street, North Melbourne, Vic 3051

Once an engine house of Melbourne’s Cable Tramway Network, this iconic Italianate building now houses a beautiful balance of industrial history and modern luxury in a sensational tri-level townhouse conversion. Beyond the towering hall of the original engine house, the weathered brick walls and steel trusses form the framework of this light-laden dwelling where everyday living is infused with style and sophistication. 

Lined by gleaming bamboo floorboards, the ground-level dining room accommodates crowds for lively feasts beneath a towering atrium roof, stretching into a private courtyard for alfresco enjoyment. The kitchen provides a full suite of Bosch appliances for easy catering, while smartly dressed in sleek stone benches. 

Overlooking the dining room, a sunlit lounge room occupies the first floor, inviting guests to relax in air-conditioned comfort. Here, the first bedroom offers space and privacy, providing mirrored built-in robes and a modern ensuite. The top level is dedicated to rest, retreat, and study, providing a luxurious main bedroom with a sparkling twin-basin ensuite, study zone, relaxation area, and built-in robes. 

Finished with a guest powder room, European laundry, and single garage within the secure communal hall of the engine house, the home assures comfort and security in a central North Melbourne location. Situated within paces of city-bound trams, Errol Street’s eateries and bars, and Flagstaff Gardens, the home indulges a vibrant city-edge lifestyle, within minutes of leading hospitals, universities, the Queen Victoria Market, and all the spoils of the CBD and Docklands.
