Magnificent 2 level Victorian terrace in Parkville’s Golden Triangle
Offered for the first time in 35 years, this magnificent & wider than normal Victorian terrace presents a rare opportunity for families, downsizers or professionals to secure an exclusive lifestyle in Parkville’s Golden Triangle. Meticulously restored to celebrate its c1880s grandeur and renovated with modern functionality in mind, it showcases a deceptively spacious layout over 2 levels complemented by relaxed indoor-outdoor entertaining, a glorious west aspect and ROW access to off-street parking. Set on the doorstep of the city, it is moments from beautiful Royal Park and the new Parkville Station.
Embracing a stunning heritage streetscape, the elegant façade stands proudly behind lush gardens and a latticework verandah. Graced with soaring ceilings, ornate cornices and polished floorboards, the front of the home has an opulent sitting room (or potential 4th bedroom) with an exquisite marble gas fireplace, plus a king-sized bedroom with a decorative gas fireplace and built-in robes, and sparkling central stone bathroom – all set off the arched hallway.
Taking advantage of the block’s full width, accommodation flows into a generous living zone, which reveals a tranquil side courtyard via French doors. Crafted for cooking enthusiasts is a huge skylit Caesarstone kitchen with a Smeg oven, gas cooktop and microwave, plus a Bosch dishwasher, Liebherr fridge and bespoke cabinetry. Bi-fold glass doors connect the adjacent dining area to a private sunny courtyard with a retractable awning and idyllic gardens, abundant with fruit trees.
Illuminated by stained glass, stairs lead to an enormous master bedroom with expansive built-in robes, a large additional bedroom with built-in robes, and stylish second bathroom with a spa bath, shower and separate w/c.
Features include gas ducted heating, split system a/c, double glazed windows, attic storage, under-floor storage (including a wine cellar), gas to the courtyard, garden irrigation and a single garage with a workshop and easy remote-control access from the lane. This home is also placed walking distance to Royal Park’s tennis and golf clubs, Melbourne Zoo, city trams, Lygon Street cafes, Melbourne University and the hospital precinct, and zoned to University High School.
