Victorian grandeur reimagined with modern mastery
Commanding a prized corner position in one of Carlton North’s most tightly held pockets, this wide Victorian stands as a breathtaking celebration of heritage beauty and contemporary refinement. Enveloped by a return lacework verandah and exquisite tessellated tiling, the stately façade exudes timeless elegance and extraordinary street presence—setting the stage for a home where history and innovation exist in perfect harmony.
Occupying a generous 442m² (approx.) in the prestigious Princes Hill Secondary College zone, this exceptional residence delivers rare family flexibility across a grand-scale floorplan. A soaring arched hallway forms the spine of the home, flanked by original marble fireplaces, restored plasterwork and beautifully preserved heritage fixtures and fittings that speak to the home’s enduring craftsmanship. Every modern comfort has been masterfully integrated, including underfloor heating in the concrete slab, hydronic and ducted climate systems, solar panels and water tanks—ensuring future-focused sustainability without compromising luxury.
Designed to adapt with grace, the versatile front rooms offer the option of additional living spaces or bedrooms, while two further bedrooms are serviced by a statement bathroom featuring an oversized sunken shower-bath. At the heart of the home, a gourmet kitchen with walk-in pantry and generous storage connects effortlessly to a light-drenched dining domain and sunken lounge—an architectural centrepiece of scale and warmth, designed for entertaining and relaxed family living. The transition to outdoor living is nothing short of seamless. Framed by a vertical garden wall and manicured surrounds, the expansive north-facing backyard is a private sanctuary—equally suited to large-scale entertaining, laid-back weekends with children, or perhaps the addition of a luxurious plunge pool (STCA).
Above it all, the upper level reveals a grand master bedroom —complete with custom cabinetry, separate steam room/shower and flexible retreat area/additional bedroom opening onto a generous terrace with sweeping views across the city skyline - a true sanctuary in the sky perfectly primed for watching the fireworks or enjoying an early morning coffee with a view.
With dual rear laneway access via Richardson Street and an impressive array of secure parking—garaging and further off-street space behind a second roller door—this home balances grandeur with practicality. Perfectly placed amidst Carlton North’s most cherished amenities, enjoy effortless access to Rathdowne Village cafés, boutique shopping, leafy parklands and Lygon Street’s cultural vibrancy, along with city trams, elite schools and the CBD just moments away. A truly unique statement of style and substance where every element has been thoughtfully curated, resulting in a home of rare distinction that honours its Victorian origins while delivering all the sophistication and comfort of modern family life. Welcome home!
