“Westby” – Elegant Period Appeal, Today’s WOW Factor

Flawlessly renovated to create a home to entertain in, this bespoke two bedroom Victorian residence set between Windsor’s cafes and Albert Park Lake has been customized for functionality while being luxuriously detailed and supremely liveable. Ideally located on the corner of Upton Road, the block has breathing space, an entertaining courtyard with a desirable northern aspect and off-street parking easily accessed from Upton Road via remote controlled gate. Featuring restored period detail, tall ceilings and stunning Wild River hand scraped European Oak floorboards, the interiors are warm, inviting and accommodating. An elegant sitting room with a gas open fireplace extends to a second living space boasting sleek urban style with an exposed brick wall and functional open fireplace with a Jetmaster firebox for heat efficiency set on a bluestone hearth. A sliding door between the two rooms can be closed for intimacy or opened for a free flowing entertaining space. The stylish kitchen is beautiful to look at and superbly functional with quartzite benchtops and matching mobile kitchen island, integrated Liebherr refrigerator and separate integrated Liebherr freezer, Bertazzoni stove and Asko dishwasher, while a mirrored splashback reflects light throughout the space. The adjoining dining room extends into the north-facing courtyard through a wall of double glazed multi-fold doors opening the space to the fresh air and sunshine, while being large enough to accommodate a 14 seater table perfect for celebrations. A canopy of electric Vergola louvres with rain sensors allow you to control the sun and shade for all day enjoyment. The two double bedrooms are lovely spaces and each feature comprehensive built-in robes and ceiling fans with the main bedroom enjoying ensuite access to a stunning sky-lit bathroom with heated towel rails and the original restored 5ft clawfoot bath backdropped by an exposed brick feature wall. Beautiful from start to finish, this impeccable home with a 6 star energy rating also features plantation shutters, roof storage, split system heating and air conditioning, opening Velux sky lights with rain sensors and integrated blinds, security alarm, European laundry, solar hot water, new roof, and extensive floor, wall and roof insulation. Seriously stylish, this stunning home sublimely reflects its cosmopolitan setting in the heart of Melbourne’s best fashion and café precinct close to trams, Prahran and Windsor stations, Prahran Market and Greville and Chapel Streets.
