58 William Street, St Kilda East, Vic 3183

Majestically Victorian in origin yet strikingly contemporary today, this three bedroom, two bathroom balconied terrace resides in a prime park side position within short walking radius to vibrant Carlisle Street, Ripponlea, transport options and schools.
Bathed in natural light, the interior has been carried into the 21st Century with exuberance and vision; while towering ceilings and grand room sizes convey a sense of openness and elegance that only a period home can provide.
The inspired inclusion of a decked northern courtyard retreat framed with a dramatic picture window floods the interior in northern light with its views and sunshine projected into the stylish formal living room with study nook and open fireplace, and voluminous open-plan living and dining domain. Here, polished concrete flooring with underfloor hydronic heating, a vaulted ceiling wrapped in highlight windows to draw light and blue sky from the north, east and south and an eastern wall of glass and steel opening to a secluded paved entertaining courtyard creates a dynamic living environment that reflects its cosmopolitan setting. The adjoining stone kitchen with European appliances, considered storage and pendant task lighting caters in style.
A ground-floor bedroom and sublime bathroom complements two further beautiful top-floor bedrooms; the main with walk-in robe opening to the lacework balcony overlooking William Street Reserve and comprehensive walk-in robe. A chic main bathroom with frameless rain shower and tile wrapped bath complements a separate fitted laundry with drying rack.
With dark polished floorboards contrasted against white plantation shutters, sound proof Comfort glass windows, under stair storage, hydronic heating and evaporative cooling, this superb residence is secured with an alarm and includes double gates to off-street parking via a rear laneway.
The sensational lifestyle setting, with the park at your doorstep, is only a few minutes' walk away from Carlisle Street's trendy cafes, bars and restaurants, Balaclava and Ripponlea train stations and within easy reach of Caulfield Grammar, St Michael's, Melbourne Grammar and within the St Kilda Primary School Zone.
