9 Smith Street, St Kilda, Vic 3182

Rich in authentic period character, this generously proportioned family home, offers an excellent floorplan that is always so keenly sought yet seldom found. The substantial living and dining room, graced with double French doors, opens to an expansive north-facing garden that captures a park-like atmosphere. This outdoor sanctuary is ideal for alfresco dining, shaded by the lofty branches of a gorgeous Peppercorn Tree. The kitchen, with its open-plan layout to the living zone, features durable granite benchtops and Blanco appliances.

The welcoming entry hallway, distinguished by towering double arches, leads to the four bedrooms, one offering flexibility to be set up as a sitting room or a secluded home office to meet the demands of modern living. The main bedroom connects to a semi-ensuite bathroom, complemented by a charming central bathroom with a vintage clawfoot tub serving the additional bedrooms.

The home is completed with split-system air conditioners, ornate high ceilings, decorative roses, original fireplaces, stained glass detail, polished floorboards, and a full laundry. Externally, the property surprises with both a store room/garage and an off-street parking space for one car, a rare find in this neighborhood.
While move-in ready, the home also offers scope for personal touches.

Despite its tranquil setting, the location is incredibly central, just moments from St Kilda Botanical Gardens, the bustling café and shopping strips of Acland and Blessington Streets, Carlisle Street's dynamic atmosphere, and convenient tram connections. It is also near St Kilda Primary School and Elwood College, underscoring the area's family friendly credentials.
