265 Rathdowne Street, Carlton, Vic 3053

This elegant terrace has been sensitively renovated for low-maintenance living by an award-winning Victorian architect.
It combines period character with contemporary style at a distinctive address opposite the Carlton Gardens, just around the corner from Lygon Street cafes, and within walking distance of the CBD.
Entry is to an arched hallway opening to a handsome living room with two open fireplaces (one with gas insert) overlooking an atrium garden.
Set to the rear is an expansive dining area open to the kitchen, stylishly fitted with timber cabinet detail, stainless steel benchtop and Miele appliances, and including a storage wall.
Also on the lower level is a smart powder room.
A wall of glass links the kitchen to a brick-paved landscaped courtyard equipped with mains gas bbq.
A large garage, equipped with laundry facilities, provides access to a spacious timber lined loft-style home office/studio with split-system air conditioning.
Upstairs are three bedrooms-the main with built-in robes, stylish fully-tiled ensuite (separate bath and shower).
The second and third bedrooms have open fireplaces.
A second tiled bathroom completes the upstairs. Features of this exceptional property include classic Victorian detail, quality cabinetry, plantation shutters, air conditioning, slab heating and an alarm system.
