Agent: James Pilliner, Nelson Alexander

A true Carlton North original, this freestanding balconied Victorian sits proudly on an incredibly rare double-width block just footsteps from the buzz of Rathdowne Village. Behind the landmark façade, the home has been beautifully reimagined for modern family living, blending timeless character with a seriously good renovation.

The showstopper? The entire home wraps itself around the magnificent full-length side garden, creating this beautiful sense of light, calm and connection to the outdoors from almost every room. Beautifully renovated, the stunning wraparound kitchen with stone benchtops, premium European appliances and enough space for everyone to gather, spill wine and linger long after dinner’s over sits at the heart of the ground floor.

Upstairs, two oversized bedrooms, large family bathroom, with extra storage and a balcony with sweeping city skyline views capture all the romance of a classic Victorian terrace, while downstairs unfolds into expansive living and dining zones, plus the flexibility of a formal lounge, study or optional third bedroom, all connecting beautifully to the garden surrounds. High ornate ceilings, original restored floorboards, hydronic heating, ROW courtyard access and that lush established greenery complete a home that feels both grand in scale and deeply welcoming.

This is the kind of Carlton North home people wait years for, character-filled, architecturally special and impossible to properly replicate.

We couldn’t be happier for our ex-pat clients who now have the perfect place to call their own on their return to Melbourne.

Welcome home, Alison and Bruce.

We love where you live. 😊
