85 Marine Parade, Elwood, Vic 3184

At the centre of a classic, character-rich trio, ‘Capri’ is ready for its next chapter – and you are invited to shape its future. A recognisable fixture on Marine Parade, the Mediterranean-inspired Art Deco residence offers palatial proportions, an exceptionally adaptable floorplan and exciting scope to reimagine as either one grand, luxurious showpiece, two spacious individual homes or back to its roots as a multi-generation family home.
Currently configured as one extremely generous 8-bedroom abode with multiple living areas, three bathrooms and two kitchens, the property presents buyers with a rare opportunity to secure a true Elwood landmark and make it their own.
As it stands, the downstairs accommodation comprises a well-equipped kitchen, large living/dining areas, four bedrooms and an original bathroom.
A lockable entrance & staircase – which can be closed off to form two secure & private dwellings – leads to the upper-level accommodation, where four further bedrooms, two bathrooms, stunning bay & foreshore-view living/dining areas and a practical kitchen with freestanding oven await. Here, a deep terrace allows for outdoor relaxation or entertaining and is the perfect spot to sit back, watch the ships go by and soak up your incredible bay-side location.
A rear courtyard, two-car garage and secure parking space are also offered – all accessed off Lytton Street. There are split system heating/cooling and a full laundry downstairs, while the first-floor accommodation is warmed by a wall heater and features a hidden European-style laundry. Period details add character & charm, and include hardwood floors, decorative ceilings & textured walls, along with a columned verandah & timeless double-door entrance.
Complemented by a coveted Golden Mile address, the home enjoys postcard-worthy views and unbeatable proximity to an enviable array of lifestyle attractions and amenities. The village, local schools and public transport are all nearby, canal & bay trails are readily at hand, and the CBD is just minutes away.
