Sublime city-edge, river precinct sanctuary
A lush, green, entertainment oasis creates an idyllic north-facing backdrop to the architect-enhanced brilliance of this beautiful double-fronted, 3 bedroom Victorian residence. A sense of spacious, light-filled seclusion over 2 compelling levels surrounds this sustainably-renovated, inner-city sanctuary created by architect Rory Hyde (Melbourne School of Design, Design Advocate for the Mayor of London) that’s located near the Yarra River, walking trails and the Convent Arts Precinct. An attractive, block-fronted façade transitions into a captivating domain where Spotted Gum flooring, exposed brick walls, thorough insulation and light-capturing windows bring warmth, richness and a relaxed ambience to an exceptionally easy and exciting lifestyle. A central hallway beyond 2 sizeable bedrooms (BIRs, OFP, plantation shutters) reveals flowing dining and living areas where tall sliding doors open directly to a leafy courtyard garden with entertainment deck (reclaimed Flinders Lane warehouse timber) and vine-covered Ironbark crank wall. A wonderful kitchen (stainless-steel appliances, recycled Oregon benchtop) and upstairs 3rd bedroom overlook the garden through tuckshop-style windows, while there’s also a bright modern bathroom, European laundry plus split-system air-conditioning and ROW to Park Street. A sublime indoor-outdoor setting at a coveted Abbotsford address, this unique city-edge retreat offers outstanding convenience to cafés, restaurants, shops and train station with effortless access to the CBD and freeway.
