A St Kilda Icon, Built For The Entertainer
Recent renovations of this iconic St Kilda period property have focused on delivering the perfect space to wine and dine with family and friends. A large provincial style kitchen with island dining, a 90cm cook's oven and 64 bottle wine rack opens on to a generous and elegant living space. Soaring pressed metal ceilings, ample built-in storage and a Victorian fireplace reclaimed from one of Dame Nellie Melba's family properties create a unique environment that is warm and inviting, while providing all the space you'll ever need to entertain in style.
A cosy and stylish double bedroom with BIRs overlooks a leafy courtyard, dappled in beautiful afternoon sun. A second room at the front of the property, with arched windows and mirrored BIRs can be used as a second / guest bedroom or a sun-drenched study. Leadlight details, a light and bright central bathroom, intercom entry and secure parking complete this inspiring home.
All this on one of St Kilda's most admired period lined streets, and housed in what was St Kilda's first hotel - the Star and Garter, built in 1854. This three storey Georgian building was remodelled in the Victorian era and converted into apartments in 1917. Now known as 'Windsor Court', it is home to only seven unique residences, each with its own fascinating history as befits this eclectic Melbourne beachside suburb. Stroll to Fitzroy St or Acland St for coffee, catch a show at the Palais or visit the Esplanade markets right at the end of the street. This property is close to everything that makes St Kilda special.
