Meticulously Restored Terrace in Vibrant North Melbourne
This lovingly modernised terrace is a rare and historically significant gem nestled within the vibrant heart of North Melbourne. Expert craftsmanship seamlessly merges original period charm with contemporary indulgence, establishing an opulent urban haven just moments from the city centre. Dated to 1879, this grand double-storey terrace stands as a pristine example of 'Boom style' Victorian architecture. Original decorative features have been carefully restored, including four operational fireplaces, Baltic pine floorboards, high ornate ceilings, and a uniquely enchanting faade. The generous period proportions lend spaciousness throughout, with an inviting entrance hall opening to an entertainer's haven at the rear of the property. Refined updates include a stylishly modernised kitchen with everything the home chef needs – Carrara marble benchtops, a fully integrated dishwasher, ample cabinetry, and a generous SMEG cooktop and oven. The entertaining potential spills outdoors to a generous bluestone-paved backyard, providing a private, sun-soaked refuge. Upstairs, a spacious balcony presents priceless views of Melbourne's iconic skyline. A generous adjoining living/dining room contains a gas-converted marble fireplace, offering a warm retreat for winter nights. Large windows reap the rewards of a favourable orientation, filtering abundant natural light throughout the home all day long. Four substantial bedrooms, each with soaring ceilings, provide versatility for whatever family, guest or home office arrangements you need to accommodate. Two tastefully appointed travertine bathrooms plus internal laundry facilities round off the property's suite of contemporary conveniences. 'Auburn' provides a level of serenity, space, and comfort rarely found so close to city convenience. Globally recognised knowledge and medical precinct - The Royal Melbourne Hospital, Royal Women's Hospital, The University of Melbourne, leading high schools (University High School Zone), the iconic Queen Victoria Market, and the endless opportunities for work and play of Melbourne's bustling CBD are all on your doorstep. Unmatched public transport connectivity makes for an effortless car-free commute. Situated within the designated Parkville National Employment and Innovation Cluster (NEIC) and the City North Structure Plan footprint (mixed use zoning), nearby the future Parkville metro network, the property will continue to benefit from its prized location and development potential (STCA, see attachments).
