12 Murchison Street, St Kilda East, Vic 3183

Freestanding, full of light, and flawlessly updated, “Olangalar” occupies a prized position in one of St Kilda East’s most established streetscapes, just moments from Alma Village, Windsor’s dining scene, and key transport links to the city. Set behind a charming picket fence and gorgeous garden frontage, its double-fronted Edwardian façade gives way to a thoughtfully zoned interior, designed to draw light across the wide-block layout and enhance everyday flow.

Original proportions and high ceilings frame three generous bedrooms, including a main with built-in robes and a third, adaptable as a home office, that opens directly to the rear yard. The formal lounge is quiet and inviting, with a bay window, built-in joinery and an open fireplace for winter, whilst the expansive open-plan family and meals domain at the rear relishes the brilliant northern rear aspect, connecting to the garden through bifold doors for indoor-outdoor living. Made for entertaining, the enormous gourmet kitchen features integrated Fisher & Paykel appliances, including induction cooking, abundant soft-close storage, and a clever dual-purpose laundry that serves as a butler’s pantry, complete with servery bar to the alfresco deck.

Outdoors, the garden is both relaxed and refined, where bluestone edging and tiered design create distinct zones under the canopy of mature trees. Under-tile heating adds indulgence to the luxe bathroom, featuring a twin shower, dual vanity and heated towel rails, whilst additional features include secure covered parking for one, an automated irrigation system, plus ducted heating and cooling. From its timeless street presence to the detail in its renovation, ‘Olangalar’ is proof that you don’t have to compromise, set amongst elite schools, Alma Park, Chapel and Carlisle Street dining, Malvern Central and Glenferrie Road shopping.
