Landmark Charm Meets Designer Style
Expressions of Interest closing Tuesday 8 October at 5.00pm
A bold expression of colour, vibrance and personality, "St Kilda House", a landmark Italianate Victorian mansion within the Charnwood Estate, is at the forefront of designer living. With a storied past dating back to 1875, the home's iconic 'French Chateau' pink and ivory facade is only the beginning of its allure, with thoughtfully transformed and reimagined interiors spanning two decadent levels, a tower and historic guest cottage within the private and immaculately landscaped, north-facing grounds.
Conceived by the esteemed interior design firm SJB, this gracious interior is distinguished by unexpected saturations of colour, intricate patterns, and a deep reverence for the home's original elegance. Formal living and dining rooms, framed by exquisite marble fireplaces, are further enhanced by the grandeur of towering leadlight windows, creating a space of timeless sophistication. A premium kitchen is understated yet equipped with top-of-the-range appliances, flowing into a sensational family domain that encompasses a striking enclosed alfresco with an indoor heated pool.
The home's European flair continues into the upper-level main suite and adjoining bedrooms, with balloon ceilings and bespoke finishes forming retreat-like spaces between the bedroom and ensuite bathroom, anchored by a freestanding Rockwell bathtub. One of the three additional bedrooms is painted Tiffany Blue, the original colour discovered from paint scrapings, whilst the two additional bathrooms are drenched in marble, emphasising the refined luxury. The tower offers a unique vantage point overlooking the treed landscape, whilst outdoors, a north-facing patio lends to relaxed entertaining, leading to "Charnwood Cottage", a c1849 worker's dwelling transformed into a guest house.
Enviably sited within a prestigious row of historic mansions atop St Kilda Hill, moments from leading schools such as St Michael's Grammar School, trams, cafe and dining precincts and Albert Park Lake, it includes secure off-street parking, ducted heating, air conditioning, alarm, CCTV and, intercom.
