Elegantly poised in the cosmopolitan heart of Fitzroy, this regal Victorian melds delicate heritage features with a modern Japanese aesthetic. Behind the gracious, iron lacework facade lies a large and generous floor plan with an abundance of accommodation offering a myriad of options.

Filled with period features and elegant proportions, gleaming polished floorboards greet you downstairs as you make your way past two traditional rooms, the front second living room (4th bedroom) complete with custom shelving and an open fireplace.

Onwards to a bright kitchen with white cabinetry and appliances, modernised at some point, offering plentiful preparation space and enjoying a clever semi-open plan aspect to the main living/dining area. This lovely area benefits from a conservatory-style ceiling which illuminates the room brightly and provides a unique sense of space and light, while still maintaning privacy. The central gas heater is ideal for cosy nights in.

Beyond and through glass doors enjoy the view of the deep allotment, with mature plantings, wooden accents and immaculately presented Japanese styled garden with decorative trditional screens. There is built in custom seating with built in storage and a clever bike shelter with cedar shingles. A handy swinging gate opening to a bluestone Fitzroy laneway, leads to Gore Street, convenient for access, or for the Vespa perhaps!

Benefiting from its double story layout, the house offers segmentation and privacy; upstairs discover a large floor plan with a study alcove space on the landing. Then yet another bedroom with a large adjoining retreat room, which in turn could easily transform into a designated office, teenagers living area or child's playroom. Both rooms are light filled courtesy of windows overlooking Fitzroy's rooftops and your garden.

The generous, immaculate bathroom servicing the home has been recently modernised and again benefits from a large window allowing excellent light and ventilation, twin vanity's and laundry facilities with trough.

The large opulent master suite (B.I.Rs) is resplendent in striking red paintwork
and red and gold trimmed full-length curtains. It features an elegant period-style gas fireplace, and opens with direct access to the North facing balcony over Kerr Street.

However you choose to configure the home, all rooms and bedrooms (three to four) offer grand height ceilings, period features such as fireplaces, ceiling roses and cornices.
It's generous size and number of rooms opens up vast opportunities.

Enriched with Victorian era craftsmanship and quirkily glamorous as-is, this superb terrace is situated in a quintessential Fitzroy streetscape, filled with period homes and a unique local village feel. Adjacent
to Brunswick and Smith Street's ,public transport and every conceivable inner-city amenity, this homes sheer size will definitely impress. Be it for the growing family, or luxurious extra-large residence, immerse yourself in Fitzroy with this Victorian classic.
