Andrew Haddow built his hardware store in 1867, and his family ran their business from this building for 125 years.
Outside the building, little has changed since Haddow’s heyday.
What awaits inside is an amazingly warm and inviting two storey residential haven, comprising ample accommodation, north facing landscaped courtyard, and secure car access. Renovated by award winning architect, Peter Jensen, with a fusion of period splendour and contemporary style and elegance.
Walk into the spacious living and dining areas, flooded with natural light, complimented by a designer kitchen with brilliant appliances.
A corridor leads to a most elegant bedroom, overlooking the leafy courtyard and cellar.
Bathroom and laundry off the corridor.
Upstairs are two further bedrooms, a study and a large bathroom. On this level, the bedrooms retain the distressed walls and the historic scars of the former hardware store as a reminder of its proud history that fits in so harmoniously with the modern renovations to the building.
The upper storey cypress deck, complete with spa, is an entertainer’s paradise with views of North Melbourne’s fast changing skyline.
All these attributes are complimented by a fabulous location. Walk to major hospitals and universities, stroll to Errol Street shops and Queen Victoria Market. Zoned Mixed Use, adding to the flexibility and versatility of the property.
This city fringe, renovated home provides the lifestyle and the comfort so regularly sought after but so rarely listed for sale.
