18 Meredith Street, Elwood, Vic 3184

Exclusively positioned within a short stroll to Elwood Foreshore and the iconic Jerry's Milkbar, this freestanding solid brick Edwardian residence's brilliant renovation and extension have resulted in a stunning single-level contemporary domain, where period elegance merges seamlessly with inspired, sun-drenched style.

Beyond auto gates and off-street parking, high ornate ceilings and leadlight windows highlight the traditional appeal, while oak floors add modern refinement to the L-shaped entrance hall and an exceptionally generous open-plan living and dining room. Beneath soaring square-set ceilings, it features a wood burning fireplace with gas provisions, bespoke joinery and a sublime gourmet kitchen appointed with timeless Carrara marble benches, European appliances and a seamless alfresco connection. Glass sliders open the interiors to a north-facing paved entertaining terrace and no-maintenance lawns bordered by established magnolia - beautiful day and night with feature garden lights and a mains gas point for the BBQ.

Generously proportioned bedrooms include a main suite with built-in robes, a lovely box-bay window seat, and an ensuite, matched with two additional bedrooms and a stylish bathroom. Idyllically situated within a short walk to excellent schools, Elwood's cafes, boutiques and St Kilda's lively nightlife and city-bound transport (tram route 96), it includes hydronic heating, split system air-conditioning, alarm system, double glazing to the rear, laundry, pull down attic storage, and a convenient built-in office.
