9 Merton Place, Albert Park

With its classical Victorian charms tastefully enhanced by a bold contemporary renovation, this exquisite 3 bedroom residence is the perfect inner-bayside sanctuary. Peacefully set in one of Albert Park's most sought after streets, merely metres from the village-like ambiance of Bridport Street, this is a premier position that uniquely blends the relaxing vibes of the waterfront with effortless city access.

Tastefully merging the traditional with the modern, the home flows along an arched hallway under towering ceilings and with polished timber underfoot, culminating in its visually striking open-plan and alfresco heart. Underpinned by a stone-topped kitchen with premium stainless steel appliances, timeless glass splash backs and volumes of cabinetry, the dining / living area flows outdoors to a private courtyard that is perfect for a quiet beverage with friends.

A flexible floorplan presents a separate lounge / potential 3rd bedroom with a fireplace and plenty of built-in cabinetry, whilst upstairs, a pair of robed bedrooms share access to one of the home's two designer bathrooms. Centrally heated and air conditioned for year-round enjoyment, the home also offers a balcony adjoining each of the upstairs bedrooms as well as a cleverly concealed laundry.

Nestled between Albert Park Village, Albert Park Lake and the sands of Albert Park beach, this is a brilliant position that is zoned for both Albert Park College and Albert Park Primary School while offering incredibly easy access to Clarendon Street's vibrancy, South Melbourne Market and city bound trams / light rail.
