Characterized by its timeless period elements, spectacular renovations and impressive two-level extension by award-winning Techne Architects, this Edwardian showpiece delivers a lifestyle of absolute quality, floorplan versatility and inner-urban ease.

Meticulous attention to detail and an abundance of natural light, the home's vogue interior boasts four bedrooms (extra-large upstairs master with dressing room and luxurious ensuite), equally-stylish main bathroom, private lounge/retreat and vast open-plan living/dining area, enhanced by a chef's kitchen with ample cupboard space and the very best appliances.

Add to this hydronic heating, zoned ducted heating/refrigerated cooling, Ness alarm, high ceilings, motorized curtains, stone benchtops throughout, plus landscaped backyard with bluestone-paved entertaining area and double garage (remote) to ROW.

Located in one of inner-Melbourne's most exclusive residential pockets with picturesque Princes Park across the road, moments away from Sydney Road/Lygon Street trams, primary and secondary schools, and easy access to shops and supermarkets, Rathdowne Village cafes and restaurants. 

James Pilliner of Nelson Alexander Carlton North told SCHWARTZWILLIAMS, "Renovations of high quality with no expense spared aren’t usually transacted when they're two years old, so the opportunity for a buyer to purchase a near-new Federation era house is a rare one indeed.  Couple that with an address in Bowen Crescent opposite the famed Princes Park and its quite a package."
