Enviably located within one of East Melbourne's most prestigious parkside pockets, this picturesque two-storey home effortlessly mixes period charm with contemporary comfort to create an effortless lifestyle choice directly opposite Darling square and just a short stroll from Powlett reserve, children's playground, local kindergarten, Fitzroy Gardens, Treasury Gardens, and the CBD.

Benefitting from coveted off-street parking, this charming corner property stands proudly in a quiet enclave that belies its convenient position, with the widest park frontage of any property around Darling Square, while blessed with unobstructed never to be built out views over Darling Square and city skyline.

Entering the classically appealing home, a central hallway with soaring ceilings and decorative arch welcomes. To the right is a spacious living and dining room which is flooded with light thanks to its enchanting triple-aspect sash windows offering more verdant views.

At the rear of this low-maintenance home, a newly renovated kitchen is a stylish space which offers stone benchtops and breakfast bar, stainless appliances including a 90cm wide five-burner cooktop, a floor-to-ceiling pantry cupboard and stylish subway tiles with open views to the park which is a unique feature that other terraces do not provide.

A well-appointed butler's pantry/laundry and powder room adds to the considered amenity of this floor.

Upstairs, two spacious bedrooms include the tranquil master at the front which boasts two walls of exquisite built-in robes with extensive storage. This serene space also opens on to a sunny north-facing terrace with views over the neighbourhood which is the perfect spot for a morning coffee or even a sundowner.

Both bedrooms are serviced by a stylish bathroom which offers a stone-topped vanity with storage, a spacious walk-in shower and striking black fixtures and fittings.

The lifestyle benefits of this appealing residence are further enhanced by two private courtyards which are perfect for alfresco dining in the warmer months while reverse cycle heating and cooling and blockout and sheer blinds maximise comfort and privacy.

This is a home you can move straight into or take advantage of the ample opportunities to further optimise this parkside site.

If location is everything, this property wins the top prize. Perfectly positioned with easy access to Melbourne's cultural delights, MCG sporting precinct, city restaurants, cafes and bistros and the Yarra, with North Richmond station and trams and buses nearby, this is an exceptional opportunity for the discerning buyer.
