Victorian vogue in a superior setting Beyond the allure of its eternally attractive facade, this Victorian terrace has been completely reimagined to deliver a light-filled lifestyle of low-maintenance luxury all in a prime location close to absolutely everything that counts. A gorgeous combination of classic and contemporary, the home's sumptuous interior boasts a large upstairs main bedroom with its own deluxe ensuite and city-skyline views, as well as a sizeable second bedroom (downstairs) and equally-stylish central bathroom. Floorplan flexibility is highlighted by a separate study/retreat and luminous open living/meals area accompanied by a sleek stone-top kitchen complete with soft-close cabinetry, premium Miele cooking appliances and dishwasher. Other luxuries include Daikin split-system heating/cooling (both levels), high ceilings and solid hardwood floors, along with double-glazed windows, robes to both bedrooms, discreet laundry facilities and under-stair storeroom. Rounding out this remarkable lifestyle package is a private courtyard (double doors from the living area) with entertaining deck and delightful perimeter gardens, plus direct access to Erskine Lane behind. A choice of tram lines at your doorstep (routes 57, 58 and 59) along with the open spaces of Royal Park, it's also close to Parkville's hospital and university precincts, local cafes, popular schools (Uni HS zone) and Arden Gardens Woolies, as well as easy access to Arden Station and Citylink.
