81-83 Hotham Street

East Melbourne VIC 3002

Surrounded by many of Melbourne?s oldest, most significant, and exclusive period residences, the remarkable architect-designed transformation of this early inner-city home has delivered magnificent four-bedroom three-bathroom contemporary accommodation in one of the precinct?s most prestigious streets. Built c.1855, the street front brick fa?ade remains one of East Melbourne?s earliest constructions, pre-dating most of the area?s iconic landmarks including the Fitzroy Gardens, St Patrick?s Cathedral, Yarra Park?s first Australian Rules Football game, Melbourne?s first Parliament House and the majestic Victorian buildings for which the area is so renowned. Very few Melbourne homes can claim such a rare distinction, even fewer that now provide luxurious contemporary comfort.

Introduced by its original arcaded porch with diamond marble entry, a series of beautifully designed architectural spaces reference their heritage surrounds with soaring ceilings, arched detailing, and hardwood timber floors. Northern light streams through the original street front windows meeting contemporary dimensions whose roof windows, multiple skylights and extensive use of glazing create an inner-city home of beautifully bright natural light ? a rare luxury in East Melbourne. Multiple living domains are accompanied by seamless indoor/outdoor entertaining, the option of up or downstairs main suites and a lush, landscaped courtyard doubling as secure off-street parking via ROW for either 1 or 2 cars if deck is removed.
