THE DEAL
Magnificently placed for indulging in everything that makes Yarraville so adored, ‘Wren House’ sees uncompromising quality and attention to detail combine in the landmark reimagining of a Victorian classic.
Receiving plaudits in publications such as Belle Magazine, The Local Project, and Est Living, Mim Design’s resplendent rework achieves a masterful balance of old and new, with an enthralling façade (c1893) and front section, comprising two robe-lined bedrooms, offering an elegant introduction to stunning spaces beyond. An Emerald Haze quartzite archway and ingenious garden court mark movement from original to modern, with a brilliant main area framed by heated polished concrete floors and soaring, square-set ceilings.
A complementary quartzite island serves as the space’s centrepiece, with a sleek kitchen providing extensive, clever cabinetry, a combined butler’s pantry/laundry, and top-of-the-range Fisher & Paykel appliance suite with fully integrated dishwasher and double fridge/freezer, gas stove, and oven pair. A concealed marble bar, backlit display cases, matte white bricks, and an open wood fire enrich a skylit living area, while sliding glass merges a delightful dining zone and remarkable outdoor domain.
Splashes of green enliven afternoons in the company of friends, with a completely private entertainer’s yard boasting a mains-gas barbecue, bar fridge, and chequerboard marble floor.
Subtle ambient lighting adorns a pale oak staircase, reaching a sublime second storey awash with all-day rays. With fluted windows to each, a spacious guest room enjoys full-wall robe storage, while a sumptuous master is accompanied by a deep walk-in robe and exquisite ensuite featuring swathes of honed terrazzo, a Fusion Rose marble vanity, under-floor and towel-rail heating, and full-width skylight above a twin rain shower.
Abundant storage, wonderful passive light, and a dry sauna/ice bath pairing headline an array of additional luxuries, complemented by a terrazzo-rich lower bathroom with New York marble vanity and bathtub, zoned ducted heating/refrigerated cooling, solar energy, Baltic pine floors to front section, a storeroom and 100% wool carpets upstairs, and a Vintec wine fridge.
Inspired, irreplaceable, and altogether irresistible, it’s metres to Yarraville Village’s outstanding coffee, renowned restaurants, boutique shops, thriving nightspots, Sun Theatre, and railway station, with tranquil trails and parks, the West Gate Freeway, and revered schools nearby.
