Nestled amid landscaped botanic gardens, this slate roofed brick Victorian provides meticulously renovated single level accommodation within easy access of the beach and bay aquatic activities.

Known as ‘St. Hellier’, the 4-bedroom residence dates to c.1882 and has been enjoyed by just four families since its construction 140 years ago.

It is being offered for the first time in 33 years, with a price guide of $4.9-5.3M.

“This is a beautifully restored large Victorian home on a large corner site of approx. 965 sqm,” Trudy Biggin told LUXURY LIST WEEKEND. 

“The home’s exquisite garden was modelled on Leo Schofield's Bronte home in NSW.”

“This premier, central Brighton location sits between Church St and Bay St centres, and offers scope to renovate in a more contemporary style (or redevelop STCA) - creating a modern masterpiece with enormous character.”

Behind a beautifully broad 27.5m frontage, an ironwork verandah façade hides a traditional double fronted layout arranged around a wide central hall with magnificent decorative arch.

Refined original dimensions have been painstakingly restored to their former glory with carefully sourced and curated details that include delicate leadlight features, multiple open fireplaces, soaring rose ceilings, decorative wall papers, luxury soft furnishings and Baltic Pine floors.

Beyond, a separately zoned main bedroom with extensive built-in robes and ensuite enjoys its own garden access.

The sensitively renovated/extended spaces at the rear of the home demonstrate equally impressive attention to detail with a timeless living and entertaining environment unfolding to multiple alfresco areas cocooned by the lush perennial gardens.
