26 Yarra Street, Williamstown, Vic 3016

An utterly charming Edwardian that has adopted a modern mood, this elegant residence reveals a series of bright, inviting spaces against a desirably low-maintenance decked backdrop less than a block from The Strand. The period character conveyed by timber floors, lead-light windows, open fire-places and pressed metal ceilings complements the total comfort of a home where three bedrooms and two bathrooms include a main bedroom with an ensuite on the upstairs level that also offers the luxury of a generous, light-filled retreat that sees the city. A central main bathroom downstairs perfectly illustrates the success with which this home has melded traditional and modern elements. Beyond, living and dining spaces that admit bright natural light and bring a sense of the outside in are accompanied by a stylishly appointed open-plan kitchen while seamless flow to the alfresco dimensions inspires ideas for warm evening entertaining. Off street parking is an added asset of this exceptional address, walking distance from the water and the Westbourne Grammar campus, with Williamstown’s shops and cafes always readily reached.
