24 Philipson Street, Albert Park, Vic 3206

An intelligent approach to renovating has produced stunning results throughout 'CARLYLE', a classical Victorian, transformed to offer contemporary spaces of consummate quality merely moments from the beach, Victoria Avenue restaurants and tram routes to the city. A living/dining domain defined by Sydney Blue Gum floors includes an open plan kitchen in which marble surfaces, superb island bench, Miele appliances and cabinetry complemented by Blum storage systems deliver efficiency with elegance. A main bedroom with walk in robe and fully tiled ensuite, with marble vanity, appreciates its own zone downstairs, enhanced by a separate central study, fitted with desk space and soft closing cupboards to fulfill a home office role in style. Two further bedrooms upstairs, one with a large terrace, the other opening to a sunny balcony that sees the city, each boast built-in robes and surround a sky lit bathroom, fully tiled and flawlessly finished. Reverse cycle heating/cooling in every room delivers constant comfort. Decked courtyard with integrated seating and clever storage contributes a secluded outdoor conclusion to a superb designer Victorian in a highly desirable location.
