A yellow door to design-focused living
Taking full advantage of its corner position and northern aspect, this residence presents as an outstanding Victorian home thoughtfully reimagined by Guild Architects for contemporary living – as comfortable to live in as it is beautiful to look at. Beyond the lovingly restored period façade and original front rooms, including a central living room, a carefully executed architectural intervention transforms the rear into a light-filled, design focused domain that provides a second living space and kitchen. Defined by a confident material palette, recycled Messmate timber introduces warmth and texture, complemented by black steel framed windows that welcome light from multiple directions and create a direct relationship to the courtyard and garden beyond. Set within a highly desirable neighbourhood celebrated for its village character and close proximity to the CBD, the location is rich in green spaces. A vibrant cafe culture, local retail strips, and excellent transport options ensure daily ease and long-term appeal.
- The light-filled living and dining area unfolds as a cohesive, open environment, retaining a sense of intimacy through thoughtful zoning and scale, before extending to the courtyard via full-height black steel doors.
- The contemporary kitchen anchors the space with a sculptural presence, enhanced by soaring ceilings, quality appliances, extensive joinery, stone benches, and a generous island that encourages both daily use and entertaining.
- The second central living area provides flexible use of space, with cleverly concealed roof ladder attic storage.
- A verdant decked courtyard designed by STEM Landscape Architecture & Design presents an oasis of calm, enclosed by native greenery and a vertical garden, with electronic retractable awning accommodating year-round use, and built-in shed, Rainbird automatic watering system, and ROW laneway access for added convenience.
- Three comfortable and bright bedrooms comprise the accommodation, including two on the ground level with custom built-in robes and charming fireplaces, and the primary deluxe suite that occupies the upper level, boasting ample cabinetry storage, a sleek ensuite, and sunlit suburban vista.
- A modern central bathroom services downstairs, complete with shower and bath, timber vanity, and full-height tiling.
-Throughout, the house is designed for easy living: with quality heating and cooling, original Baltic pine floorboards, plantation shutters, ceiling fans, electronic external blinds, and custom joinery and storage options, including attic space.
- The brilliant location sits a stone’s throw from Merri Creek parklands and trails, with easy access to Heidelberg Road, Queens Parade Village, and walking distance from Clifton Hill train station.
