Darling House: Today's Urban Essence, Tomorrow's Future Oasis

Commanding its place on Darling Street, expansive 7-bedroom, 4-bathroom residence stands as a testament to timeless design. Situated on one of the largest private landholdings in the immediate locale, this fully renovated historic property offers not just a home, but a vision of what may come.

Behind an imposing Victorian façade, a central arched hallway anchored by limed Baltic pine floors leads you to an exquisite formal lounge and refined study, both with fireplaces. The heart of the home is an open-plan, stone bench kitchen with premium European appliances and a walk-in pantry, seamlessly flowing into a vast, light-filled living domain and out onto an elevated north-east facing alfresco terrace.

A ground level bedroom, replete with robes and stylish bathroom are complemented upstairs by the luxuriously appointed main bedroom suite with fireplace, balcony, and opulent ensuite, alongside two additional well-proportioned bedrooms, bathroom and powder room.

Descending below, one discovers a three-bedroom self-contained apartment, featuring a modern open-plan living and kitchen area that opens to its private deck, offering a haven for older teens, extended family or guests.

While the residence is undeniably beautiful and recently renovated as it stands, it also harbours immense potential. Included in the sale are permits and thoughtfully crafted plans by renowned architect Blair Smith, providing an opportunity to further elevate this heritage home at your leisure, with pathways leading to an envisioned outdoor sanctuary, complete with cascading gardens and outdoor bath.

For those seeking an immediate haven, this residence stands ready, requiring no immediate changes. But for those with a visionary spirit, it offers an unparalleled canvas, merging urban elegance with a tranquil oasis.

An utterly unique lifestyle opportunity, 30 Darling Street is positioned moments from the revered Domain Precinct, Botanic Gardens, public transport options, and South Yarra's vibrant cafes, bars, restaurants, boutiques, and esteemed schools.
