7 Martin Street, Brighton, Vic 3186

Inspections by Private Appointment Only

This is one of the enduring treasures of Brighton’s Golden Mile, and one of its greatest opportunities as well. Set upon some 2500 square metres, just steps from the beachfront, the five-bedroom art deco masterpiece has been held by one family for over half a century. And to come here is to know why – it offers a quality of life that is hard to find, and even harder to leave.
 
Set well back from the street and wrapped by wide rolling lawns, lovely established gardens and north-south grass tennis court, Number Seven oozes old school appeal. The art deco influence is evident everywhere – from its stylised balcony and wraparound windows on the façade, to stepping inside to witness the soaring double-height foyer, sweeping curved staircase and glittering antique chandelier.
 
It’s a wondrously beautiful theme that continues right throughout the grand and gracious two storey home, with magnificently proportioned living, dining, entertaining and family spaces alive with light, space and endless warmth. Marble fireplaces, ornate cornices, and glorious decorative tiling right across the home bring a touch of Gatsby-era glamour. The principal bedroom has its own sitting room and feels like its own private apartment. It has glorious wrap around views across to its sweeping grounds, gardens and onto the stately homes of one of the most revered boulevards on the Golden Mile - with the easiest of access to the schools, shops, restaurants, parks and beaches that have made Brighton a postcode desired right around the world.
