41 Bridge Street

Cherishing a position that's unmistakably one of Melbourne's most beloved, this fully reimagined Edwardian carries its grace and elegance into the modern day, delivering the highest standard of easy luxury seconds from the buzz of Bay Street. With its white-picket fence and array of old-world intricacies making for a commanding street stance, a statement Rothelowman redesign creates an environment where light and space meld with architectural expression. Two substantial bedrooms and a smart bathroom are introduced en route to a spectacular rear domain, with a soaring ceiling fostering depth, sun streaming through a light court, and a sense of occasion sitting centre-stage in living and dining areas. Zerothreshold bi-fold doors merge inside and out, transforming the home into a haven for hospitality, with an oversized alfresco deck the perfect base for Sunday barbecues. Claiming a bright, spacious second storey for itself, a magnificent master suite enjoys a walk-in robe, additional built-in robes, a permanent beauty station, and twin-basin ensuite with a spa bath and feature skylights. With bi-folds open, a delightful breeze adds to the atmosphere, while unforgettable city sights stage a remarkable roof deck brilliant for an evening drink before indulging in the local culinary scene. Bosch/Asko appliances, a walk-in pantry, and dumbwaiter to the master suite mean a gourmet kitchen can cater for anything, while comprehensive heating/cooling, solid timber floors, plantation shutters, attic storage, a video intercom, laundry with a chute, various period details, and backyard access via McCormack Street lift appeal beyond compare. In a prestige locale where a car is simply unnecessary, it's under 900m to the beach while steps to world-class coffee, renowned restaurants, bars and pubs, scattered parks, the Gasworks Creative Precinct, verve of Victoria Avenue, Light Rail for rapid city access, Albert Park Lake, iconic South Melbourne Market, and zoned Albert Park College.
