Located in the iconic beachside location of St Kilda, this double storey Victorian terrace has been restored by Melanie Beynon AD to its former grandeur with a balance of classical style and a contemporary design approach.The grand Victorian entry makes a bold statement that reflects the client’s sentiment to the colour blue. Saxe Blue painted walls to the lavish front sitting room compliment original marble fireplaces and an antique crystal chandelier. Luxe royal navy-blue carpet leads the eye from the entry up the remastered original staircase to the first floor quarters.

The palatial master suite bathroom is the feature of the first floor, boasting a spacious light filled volume with high ceilings, restored fireplace, double shower and a double vanity accented with indigo blue joinery. These architectural details are accompanied by custom polished nickel tapware and brass detailing. The feature pendant by Volker Haug hangs over a large porcelain-clad island bench, offset by soft grey cabinetry and a separate bar console for entertaining guests. The new parquetry oak flooring and integrated gas fireplace adds warmth and comfort to this communal space.
