Amplified by natural light and intricate details of early Victorian-era craftsmanship, the home's charm is immediate, with a spacious living area featuring the warmth of wide-board timber floors and an open fireplace. High ceilings continue through the renovated central kitchen, where original dado wall panelling, stainless steel appliances and a stylish pressed-tin backsplash blend modern with endearing period character. Following through, the bedroom is a serene retreat with plush carpeting and a tranquil atmosphere, leading to a modern honeycomb-tiled bathroom with a unique built-in bathtub that captures views into the private backyard.

Entertain outdoors on the broad deck and pergola and imagine the possibilities on offer, with the option to further enhance or architecturally extend up and out to maximise its footprint (STCA). Only minutes away from St Kilda's vibrant foreshore and endless dining and entertainment options, this peaceful yet dynamic pocket of Melbourne offers the ultimate in laid-back living.
