9 Bowen Street, Balaclava

From the freestanding Edwardian appeal to interiors that have been stunningly renovated and extended to modern perfection, this unmissable 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom single level residence is a Balaclava beauty in an enviable location.

So much of the property has been refurbished and reimagined to a high contemporary standard by a renowned architect and designer. Striking Baltic pine flooring flow throughout the home, including 3 front bedrooms which are relaxed and boast built-in robes (one bedroom has a built-in study desk). The master bedroom in the extended rear part of the dwelling has privacy and peace for parents, and delivers an abundance of BIR storage plus a terrazzo rain shower ensuite with electric sensor skylight.

The living with open fireplace gets bathed in northern light and is wonderful in the afternoon during the chilly winter months. The dining zone shares a space with the pristine kitchen featuring marble benchtops and quality stainless steel appliances including Miele oven and cooktop, meanwhile the main central bathroom promises a deluxe rain shower and terrazzo detail. At the rear, an entertainer's deck and low-maintenance garden takes advantage of the northern orientation, with the garden featuring veggie patches to add more sustainability to your life as well as flourishing passionfruit trees.

Further embrace a front garden with lemon, mandarin, and apple trees, gorgeous north-facing reading nook, European laundry, hydronic heating, ducted cooling, secure alarm, and external storage room. Steps to the vibrant Carlisle Street shopping strip with standout restaurants and supermarkets, Acland Street eateries and bars, St Kilda Botanical Gardens, St Kilda Beach, St Kilda Primary School, trams taking you to the CBD, buses, and Balaclava Station.
