WINDSOR

THE DEAL

Hidden quietly and peacefully just one block from Melbourne’s premier lifestyle hub, this park-fronting c.1880 Victorian pairs its classical charms with a no-expense-spared transformation. Designed by Odyssey Architecture, built by The Builders Project, and finished with interiors by Jessica Coulter, every inch reflects a level of craftsmanship, comfort, and sophistication that sets a new benchmark for Windsor living.

Quick to captivate with its double frontage, white-picket fence, iron lacework, and lush landscaping. An inviting entrance leaves a lasting impression, with a focal arch and soaring 3.9 metre ceilings setting a tone of scale, elegance, and prestige continued throughout. A statement hallway door marks movement from accommodation to main spaces, revealing an open entertainer’s suite where ribbons of sun add to a sense of space. Turko Argento limestone adorns a fitted bar with a bar fridge, gas-log fireplace surround, and Miele kitchen with a butler’s pantry, while living and dining zones spill into a completely private backyard brilliant for entertaining.

Waking to leafy outlooks, a substantial master enjoys its own oversized walk-in robe and chic, dual-basin ensuite, accompanied by storage-rich guest and third bedrooms, a lavish central bathroom with a soaker bath, and a robe-lined front lounge doubling as a fourth bedroom. Just as ideal for a family as it is for high-flying professionals and those downsizing from marquee homes. Other highlights include fluted screens and under-floor heating in bathrooms, Woodcut floors, Signorino tiles, Rogerseller tapware, heating/ cooling, full-height sheer curtains, built in appliances, an outdoor kitchen, travertine-lined powder room, Turko Argento laundry / mudroom, secure off-street parking at both front and rear, and ornate details keeping period character alive.

Windsor Station and numerous trams streamline access to the MCG, Arts Precinct, and city centre, while elite schools, the Yarra River, Toorak and Hawksburn Villages, High Street, and St Kilda’s picturesque foreshore sit close by.
