Masterpiece of modern opulence and period splendour
Beyond the timeless charm of its handsome heritage facade, the architectural transformation of this Victorian terrace has resulted in a state-of-the-art environment of uncompromised luxury and family flexibility – all on 193sqm of land (approx) in an exclusive lifestyle location.
Cleverly crafted and brilliantly delivered, the home’s free-flowing interior showcases four well-proportioned bedrooms (master with fully-fitted WIR and private balcony) complemented by two beautifully-appointed bathrooms.
Further enhancing its family credentials is a spacious and versatile open living/dining area adjoined by a thoughtfully-designed kitchen with walnut joinery, natural stone surfaces (Champagne Quartzite) and top-of-the-range Fisher & Paykel appliances.
Hydronic heating, split-system air conditioning, double-glazed windows (extension) and 3.2kW solar power all add to the allure, along with a family-sized laundry, premium carpets and engineered timber floors.
Completing the picture is a private backyard including verandah with black-mesh cafe blind and handy storage shed, plus a sunny rooftop terrace with city views and remote-control carport to ROW.
A short stroll to Nicholson Street cafes, shops and trams to hospital/university precincts and the CBD, it’s also close to popular schools, Inner Circle Rail Trail and the open spaces of Edinburgh Gardens.

Buyer Review
From first meeting Nick at an open house one rainy
From first meeting Nick at an open house one rainy Wednesday, he impressed both of us with his enthusiasm and commitment to finding the right house for us. And in a few short weeks, he did! Nick was very professional, warm and friendly and nothing was too much trouble. He is a credit to Nelson Alexander, they should feel lucky to have this exceptional young man working for them.
