Defined by an accomplished contemporary renovation and a dress-circle address on the edge of St Vincent Gardens, this stunning three-bedroom c1880 Victorian home delivers unforgettable style, architectural prowess and lock-and-leave luxury in a premier position. Owning a prominent corner bordering Lt Iffla Street, it invites exceptional living through an expert transformation that allows security and privacy in equal measure, ensuring indoor-outdoor ease with courtyards on either side.

A restored block-front facade honours the past, whilst the timber-clad extension affords an insight into the modern refinement within, opening to high ceilings, Blackbutt timber floors and sleek stone surfaces. Neutral tones ensure a sense of effortlessness, highlighting the connection to the sky and garden through double-glazed windows and Velux skylights, matched by stacked sliding doors that extend to the landscaped rear garden.

The kitchen is a masterpiece of functionality and style, equipped with a chic island, premium Bosch dishwasher and Neff cooking appliances, including an induction cooktop. On the ground floor, a family bathroom with a floating vanity, European laundry and deep soaking bath precedes a guest bedroom with double-glazed French doors facing the home's period frontage. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms with built-in robes share an equally stylish central bathroom, including the main bedroom with floor-to-ceiling robes, a custom dresser within the study/dressing room and access to the impressive attic storage area.

Additional highlights include split system air conditioning throughout, high-end finishes, CCTV and alarm, keypad gate access, solar power with an estimated annual production of 7,115kWh and abundant storage, all within walking distance to Albert Park Village, Albert Park College and Primary School, the beach, South Melbourne Market, the light rail and Bay Street's cafe and dining mecca.
