Ssssh keep it quiet ...you're so close to the city and we've got a secret to share! Facing the street in traditional wide-verandaed workers cottage style, this solid-brick three bedroom, two bathroom Victorian home steps up over three surprising levels with two living rooms around a skylit kitchen, a dedicated first-floor master-level...and the best kept ‘secret’; a third-level panorama-view roof-deck with views to South Yarra hill, the Nylex clock to the city skyline beyond!

Renovated with an appreciation for the home’s original solid-brick beauty, there’s rare period appeal with textural exposed-brick walls on show, high decorative ceilings, rich Baltic pine floors underfoot and a real, functioning open-fireplace on display. Starring a sleek stone and European appliance kitchen (with induction cooktop) and fully-tiled designer bathrooms including a clever two-way ensuite, the home offers today’s best extras - including a home-office area lit by an openable Velux-skylight.

Climate-controlled by multiple reverse-cycle air-conditioners, the home features airy ceiling-fans, soaring skylights, privacy-enhancing plantation-shutters, tall built-in robes and bonus roof-storage. With a blooming boxed-garden out front, this value-added home has yet another surprise with easy two-car auto-gated parking from a bluestone lane at the rear.

A river-side walk to the CBD (or one stop via nearby Richmond station), this panorama-view is a kick to Melbourne’s sporting heartland (with AAMI Park, Rod Laver Arena and the MCG just across Punt Rd), and just 250m to the tram to Bridge Rd’s hospitality and Chapel St’s nightlife.
