Residence 1 284 Dorcas Street
South Melbourne

Residence 1. Long renowned for the elegance of its c1880 architecture and important to South Melbourne as the local primary school for so many years, this landmark address is similarly significant for the success with which its spaces have assumed a residential profile. This brilliant New York style dual level town residence with its own separate entrance, demonstrates the theory throughout appealing proportions including an exceptionally generous living/dining area accompanied by an open-plan kitchen where stone benches and stainless steel appliances convey quality and style. On the upstairs level the luxury of a main bedroom with a bright ensuite is matched by two additional bedrooms, one with its own ensuite, while a third bathroom delivers further desirability downstairs. Heating/cooling, a gas fire-place, huge blue-stone cellar/storage and secure parking for two cars via auto gates complement a property that captures South Melbourne's past, present and future - beautifully close to the Market, Clarendon Street shops, Albert Park cafes, the city and the beach.
