Distinguished by its captivating street presence, ‘St Arnaud’ delivers the elegance of an exquisite double-fronted solid-brick Victorian residence with extraordinary contemporary family dimensions across two sun-drenched levels, culminating in a glorious pool and garden. Set on approximately 345sqm with a second north-west frontage to Little Greig Street, it presents a phenomenal family offering in one of Albert Park’s most prized locations.
Beyond the marble verandah and iron lacework, a broad hall with soaring ceilings and solid Jarrah floors introduces a light-filled interior of impressive generosity and exceptional flexibility. Elegant formal living and dining rooms retain the grandeur of the original home, the living room warmed by a wood-burning fireplace, before full-height pivot French doors open to a spectacular modern family domain. Conceived for large-scale entertaining, expansive open-plan living and dining with a gas fireplace surrounds a stone kitchen with St George appliances and an integrated Miele dishwasher, while walls of glass extend the entire space to the deck, terrace and mature citrus garden beside the self-cleaning, solar-heated pool and plumbed BBQ with bench space on either side, perfect for entertaining.
The scale and versatility of the accommodation is equally remarkable. A fitted home office or sitting room with open fireplace offers potential as an additional bedroom, while the tranquil ground-floor main suite features extensive robes, dual lightwell outlooks and an ensuite. A central bathroom rounds out the ground floor accommodation. Upstairs, three spacious bedrooms with fitted robes, desks, and city views are complemented by a generous living room or fifth bedroom and a central bathroom.
Impressively appointed throughout, it includes hydronic heating downstairs, ducted reverse-cycle heating and cooling upstairs, motorised exterior shade blinds to the north, automated irrigation, outdoor lighting, a well-equipped laundry with excellent storage and drying area, bike storage, additional shedding, and an underfloor cellar. Enviably positioned in a wide tree-lined street just steps from Gasworks Arts Park and within a short stroll of Albert Park College, Albert Park Primary School, the beach, Victoria Avenue shops and cafés, city-bound trams, and the wine bars, fashion boutiques and restaurants of Albert Park Village.
