In a prime South Melbourne location near the market, iconic pubs, and multiple tram routes, this c1889 Victorian residence offers an inner-city sanctuary just moments from the beach, CBD, and Albert Park Lake. Set across two titles with a unique, idyllic 'secret garden' providing two distinct tiers of outdoor space, this three-bedroom, two-bathroom home is set apart by its secluded charm amidst the dynamic cityscape.
Immediately welcoming, the entry hall sets the tone for the inviting spaces beyond. The living and dining area, centered around a fireplace, flows effortlessly into the stylish kitchen, where a French-patterned earthen floor and timber-lined ceiling add character. This space extends further to the tranquil garden, highlighted by the leafy canopy of a Japanese maple, perfectly blending indoor and outdoor living. A bespoke iron spiral staircase leads to the first floor, where the main bedroom enjoys a bright ensuite and a refreshed north-facing balcony with skyline views, and two additional bedrooms with built-in robes include one with a private, sun-drenched terrace.
Cherished by the same family for the past three decades, this Victorian gem, located steps from O'Connell's, a renowned gastropub, and within easy reach of the city's vibrant retail, dining and entertainment precincts, offers an unmatched lifestyle in the heart of South Melbourne. Additional features include split system heating and cooling and double-glazed front/side windows for energy efficiency, a laundry, a downstairs bathroom with a soaking tub, and an underground cellar.
