147 Kerferd Road, Albert Park, Vic 3206

Magnificently sited on the corner of Kerferd Road and Little Page Street, this single-level, double-fronted Edwardian residence stands among Albert Park’s few freestanding corner blocks and a landholding of such scale. Offered for the first time in over four decades, its 529m2 (approx) allotment includes secure off-street parking for several vehicles and a fully self-contained studio, a combination that delivers a remarkable family domain with outstanding flexibility, underpinned by the serenity of its exclusive setting.

A freshly re-pointed façade and lavender-lined pathway lead to interiors that reflect both c1908 origins and timeless updates, introduced with soaring 12ft ceilings and a versatile, light-filled layout. Two north-facing formal reception rooms open from the central hallway, followed by three spacious, robed bedrooms, two with private en-suites, plus a third bathroom. The main bedroom opens directly to a wisteria-draped courtyard, while a separate study or fourth bedroom allows further scope for evolving needs, paired with a self-contained one-bedroom studio, with gated access from Little Page Street.

Substantial open-plan living and dining areas embrace picturesque garden outlooks, framed by established greenery, a mature olive tree and a distinct European sensibility that sets the tone for al-fresco entertaining. A well-appointed kitchen complements this generous space, alongside a gas log fire, bespoke storage and sunlight drawn through a towering stained glass-encased turret. 

Positioned just 300m from the beach and Kerferd Road Pier, and moments from Victoria Avenue and Albert Park Village, with cafés, dining, and tram links including the 96 light rail to South Melbourne Market and the CBD, the address is simply unbeatable. Zoned for Middle Park Primary and Albert Park College, and within easy reach of Melbourne’s leading independent schools, MSAC, and Albert Park Lake, the home also features split-system heating/cooling in each room, monitored alarm, laundry with additional WC, two roof storage areas, external storage with roller-door entry, two mains gas BBQ points, and flexible development opportunities (STCA).
