81 Lewisham Road North, Prahran, Vic 3181

A rare opportunity in a tightly held, blue-chip garden pocket.

Beautifully presented and recently updated, this c1880s Victorian residence blends refined heritage charm with modern flexibility—offering a rare combination of space, light, and privacy in one of Prahran’s most tightly held streets.

Inside, the home offers high ceilings, original fireplaces, and elegant period detail throughout. Every window captures a leafy outlook, creating a strong sense of calm, connection, and garden presence in every space. The floorplan includes four bedrooms and four bathrooms (three with ensuites plus powder), a full-size laundry, and generous open-plan living and dining filled with natural light. Ducted heating/cooling and Ilve/Miele appliances provide comfort and quality at every turn.

A separate garden studio—set apart from the main house and surrounded by established greenery—adds valuable flexibility for working from home, pilates, or creative use.
The north-facing garden is a true extension of the home—lush, established, and designed to be lived in. Mature trees, supplied by Evergreen Trees Direct, provide year-round greenery and natural shade. A full-width lawn offers space for children to play, while inbuilt outdoor seating anchors the crazy-paved entertaining area—perfect for long lunches, weekend gatherings, and everything in between.

The location is equally compelling. Just a one-minute walk to Victoria Gardens, where a takeaway pizza from Small Print becomes an impromptu park picnic. You're also surrounded by some of Melbourne’s most celebrated local favourites—Mount Erica, Osteria Renata, Fourth Chapter, Officine Zero, and Hawksburn Village—with High Street Armadale and Chapel Street just around the corner.

Plans and permits by Bellhaus offer future scope for a striking, architect-designed second-level addition with pool—carefully considered to elevate lifestyle and scale while retaining the home’s character and garden connection.

This is a home that’s both deeply private and perfectly connected. Rarely offered, tightly held—and impossible to replicate.
