This extraordinary, quiet, secluded double-storey English-style Toorak cottage with the unmistakable appeal of Art Deco architecture is set at the rear of a heritage garden complex, Studley, known for its rich history. The main house was home for a time to Dame Nellie Melba. The garden cottage was used by the impressarios JC Williamson's to house its visiting stars, including Rex Harrison. Melba's memoirist, Beverley Nichols resided in the Toorak cottage while working on her life story. Elegant, impeccably restored and maintained, the north-facing cottage, affectionately known as 'Little Chuckles' by its early twentieth century architect and owner, Walter Butler, offers a delightful sitting room with parquetry flooring, picture rails, open fire place overlooking a serene garden.
