House
Occupying a prestigious corner position, "Augusta" (c.1898) is a magnificent double-fronted brick Victorian residence that seamlessly combines historic grandeur with modern functionality. Set upon original bluestone foundations and showcasing exquisite tuck-pointing, this landmark home enjoys an enviable location within walking distance of Puckle Street and Union Road's vibrant retail and dining precincts, Moonee Ponds train station, and a selection of highly regarded schools.
A rare offering, the property presents breathtaking city skyline views, remarkable period detail, and a versatile studio/office or additional living space above a secure carport. Behind a striking leadlight-adorned entrance, a grand arched hallway sets the tone with soaring ceilings, intricate rosettes, and Baltic pine floorboards. Generously proportioned living and dining rooms, along with robed bedrooms, are enhanced by timber-mantled open fireplaces with cast iron inserts, while the main bedroom boasts a walk-in robe and semi-ensuite access to the spacious central bathroom. Valuable attic storage is also available.
Upstairs, a light-filled retreat and an oversized bedroom extend onto a balcony capturing uninterrupted panoramic views across Melbourne's most recognisable landmarks. At the heart of the home, the contemporary kitchen and meals area impress with lofty ceilings, a stone-topped breakfast bar, walk-in pantry, appliance cupboard, and premium stainless-steel appliances. This inviting space flows seamlessly to a refurbished Merbau deck, designed for relaxed outdoor entertaining.
Further highlights include ducted heating, split-system cooling, a galley-style laundry with ample storage, and secure off-street parking via Winchester Street. The property is perfectly positioned within easy reach of the Maribyrnong River, Queens Park, local trams, and elite schools including Moonee Ponds West Primary (zoned), St Monica's Primary, Penleigh & Essendon Grammar, Lowther Hall, and St Columba's College.
