Character-filled and utterly captivating, this versatile 4 bedroom historical conversion spectacularly balances its heritage accents with functionality and design to suit today's lifestyle demands. 

Original brick and timber features unite with modern fittings and fixtures, glass ceilings, rendered wall panels and landscaped greenery combine to make this elegant Victorian a comfortable contemporary home.

Rudy Van Der Berg of RT Edgar Toorak told WILLIAMS MEDIA, "The current owner extended the original Victorian workers cottage (circa 1880) and created this captivating and versatile residence, maintaining  its heritage accents with contemporary functionality and flair."

The split-level layout boasts a guest suite with a walk through wardrobe-study or potential bedroom, with an additional two bedrooms (each with fireplaces).

To the rear a stunning central kitchen showcasing ample storage, granite counter tops and electrical appliances adjoins a separate meals area drenched in natural light by the beautiful glass ceiling.

The separate living area opens out to a paved rear yard with water fountain and rear lane access.

The upper level houses a master suite with a tranquil balcony and ensuite. 

Enviably positioned in a quiet treelined street opposite Murchison Square with the Melbourne Museum and surrounding parklands at the end of the street. Lygon Street eateries and boutique shopping a block away and the CBD only a short stroll through the Exhibition Gardens.

Van Der Berg said, "The homes around Murchison Square are tightly held, the last time 25 Canning Street was offered for sale was 27 years ago."

Open for inspection tomorrow, Thursday 28th March from 1.00pm - 1.30pm.
