25 Rathmines Street, Fairfield, Vic 3078

Expertly reimagined by Thomas and William Architects, this exceptional four-bedroom, three-bathroom residence masterfully unites old and new in one of Fairfield’s most desirable pockets — just a short stroll from Fairfield Station, Fairfield Primary, and the serene expanses of McAdam Reserve.
Behind a retained period façade, the home unfolds with effortless sophistication. Two original bedrooms, adorned with timeless features, anchor the front of the home, while a striking contemporary extension stretches to the rear — defined by clean architectural lines, dual living zones, and an abundance of natural light.
Crafted for year-round entertaining, the floorplan invites seamless connection between indoors and out. Custom aluminium window boxes and UV-resistant, double-glazed windows ensure comfort and energy efficiency, while the exterior’s Pressed Seam cladding and recycled red brickwork (sourced from Northcote and Fitzroy) create a rich visual dialogue between industrial edge and organic warmth.
Inside, every detail has been carefully curated. Polished concrete floors with hydronic heating define the rear living space, while American oak floorboards honour the original character. A sculptural staircase of solid oak treads, glass balustrade, and LED-lit recessed handrail serves as a centrepiece, framed by hardwood-clad walls and a porcelain feature fireplace.
Three designer bathrooms elevate the everyday — each finished with Japanese finger tiles, oversized custom mirrors, and statement porcelain slab accents. The kitchen and surfaces throughout feature marble-effect Larson porcelain for enduring elegance.
Comfort is assured year-round with zoned ducted heating/cooling plus additional split systems in the original wing. With Fairfield Primary just 570m away and zoning for Northcote High School, this is a family-focused haven with every lifestyle convenience at your door.
Architect-designed. Impeccably detailed. Instantly impressive.
