15 Cross Street, Canterbury VIC 3126

Set on the original Claremont Park Estate in the prestigious Maling Road precinct, this elevated c1892 Victorian residence exudes timeless character, surrounded by lush, impeccably maintained gardens. Rich in period detail, it showcases ornate iron lacework, coloured leadlight windows, and soaring ceilings adorned with roses and cornices. Thoughtful renovations and a sympathetic second storey extension blend seamlessly with the original design, adding space, flexibility, and views to the City and north.

A grand arched hallway with oak floors leads to refined formal sitting and dining rooms, alongside two downstairs bedrooms, or one plus a study, the main bedroom with walk-in robe, and a period-style bathroom with a claw-foot bath. Upstairs, two further bedrooms with built-in robes, a family retreat, and a second bathroom provide excellent family accommodation. At the heart of the home, an expansive open plan living and dining domain flows to a stylish stone bench kitchen with premium appliances. Bi-fold doors connect to a covered deck, paved alfresco entertaining areas, and terraced gardens featuring a spa pool, creating a tranquil oasis for relaxed indoor outdoor living.

Additional highlights include four OFPs, Daikin electric ducted heating, R/C air conditioning (upstairs), plantation shutters, a 400 bottle cellar, auto watering system, garden lighting, shed, and off-street parking. Council approved plans are also in place for a garage and butler’s pantry.

Perfectly positioned, the home is just a short stroll to Maling Road’s boutique shops and cafés, Canterbury Station and Gardens, Canterbury Primary, Strathcona, and a range of leading public and private schools - underscoring its outstanding family lifestyle appeal.
