In a central St. Kilda location that's both secluded and surrounded by local culture, this stunning renovation of an 1890s Edwardian by acclaimed architects Pleysier Perkins is a must-see property. Retaining the period charm of the original building but opening up into a brilliant extension filled with light and space, this is a grand 3-bedroom home to suit the most discerning and sophisticated buyers.

The beautiful period façade (with a wide 7.25M frontage) retains the original brickwork, latticework, and chimneys of the property's past. Step inside the original structure, with its striking 3.3m ceilings, and there's a mixture of period details (restored plaster ceilings) , intricate cornices/ceiling roses, fireplace, coloured glass matched with striking contemporary style (solid oak floors, playful feature walls and wallpaper). The large front room boasts period detail, bay window and built-in robes. A second bedroom has stylish storage and a creative use of space, offering potential as work-from-home office space. The large laundry maintains clean lines by closing appliances and storage behind pristine cupboards, and the brilliantly-remodelled bathroom finds a spacious open shower whose huge shower rose descends from the ceiling in eye-catching fashion.

Step out into the newly-built open living area at the rear of the house, where space abounds, light floods in from skylights, and the rear windows slide open to beautifully blur the lines between outside and in. The meticulously mounted kitchen features ample space on Carrara marble benchtops, plentiful cupboards in walnut, gleaming Smeg appliances (dishdrawer, oven, gas cooktop), and a surprisingly spacious butler's pantry. The large living and meals area leads out to a North-facing rear entertaining area set on stylish sandstone, which is perfect for hosting guests or relaxing. Ascend to a huge master bedroom upstairs, which boasts chic open walk-in wardrobe and an ensuite with shower. There's air conditioning in the master bedroom, and ultra-efficient hydronic central heating throughout.

This brilliant, beautiful home sits right in the heart of St. Kilda, yet on a quiet residential street that gets no through traffic. You're steps away from Mrs Hyde's café on the corner and to local shops. It's an easy stroll down to St. Kilda beach, St. Kilda Sea Baths, Fitzroy and Acland Streets, Peanut Farm Reserve, and St. Kilda Botanical Gardens and a short walk from buses and trams
